Itinerary:

Summer is in full swing so lets beat the heat with some river tubing!

Join me in scenic Helen, Ga for cool tubing down the Chattahoochee River. We'll take the longer 2 hour float route so we get the full enjoyment out of the day.

For those with a sense of adventure, you can add the twisting and turning waterslide to your tubing pass and add to the excitment! I personally recommend it!

Unfortunately, no adult beverages are allowed on the river BUT, for those interested after our float, we can grab a bite and brew in downtown Helen before heading back.

NOTE: It is highly recommended you know how to swim and be comfortable in swift moving water to attention this event.
