How The River Float (Tubing) Shuttle Works:

​

1. Shuttle picks up your group at the chosen river take-out location (your final float destination).

2. Shuttle drives your group to the put-in spot up river; drops off group.

3. Get into the river...float right back to your car! (or hotel, or just where you started)

​

• Shuttle seats a maximum of 11 people per trip (sorry, no pets).

• Rentals to be picked up by MTAS will be picked up before your trip--book online and put your info in, or call to arrange!

• Shuttle may be shared with others pending availability OR Contact to book a private shuttle trip for your group.
