River Tubing

Fed from sources located deep in the island’s interior, the Balthazar River is not named Grenada’s ‘GREAT RIVER’ for nothing. Nestled between the exotic and magnificent tropical rainforest, flora, fauna and enchanting history of the Balthazar Estate, it is the ideal place for our guests to experience the unique blend of nature and adventure.

Approximately 40 - 45 minutes of driving out of St. George, come either via the rolling but scenic interior of the Grand Etang Rainforest Reserve, or along the breath taking Eastern Atlantic coastline. On arrival you will be met by our friendly tour guides for the introduction and safety briefing. Be sure to try to memorize their river names as it is sure to provoke some fun on the water!!

Snap on your life vests and helmets, step to the river’s edge and you are ready to go on a FUNtastic river ride………Wet, wild and wonderful from the word go!! Our skilled guides will accompany and entertain you on the journey, as you gently spin and swirl in the currents of the river. Take in the exotic scenery of tropical vegetation on this thrilling ride down the river, stopping only in the pools along the way to be entertained while you catch a breath. Then finally at the last pool, an opportunity for a swim before you enjoy a much deserved Rum Punch or glass of local fruit juice, before returning to your “home away from home”.
