Just thinking about it makes you smile. A day of tubing along the Delaware River. And it is something the whole family can enjoy. In addition to the usual single and double tubes, Delaware River Tubing has an exclusive three-seater tube so the family can bob along together. The tubes also come in small sizes for the youngsters and medium and large sizes for older tubers. They even have handles so you can get them in and out of the water pretty easily.
As for the trip itself, you’ll be on the river for about three or four hours. That stretch of the Delaware has a mild current and no rapids so it will be a relaxing, easy trip. Now you might be asking yourself, ‘if we’re out on the river all day, how will we eat?’ Not to worry. In an exclusive Delaware River Tubing deal, your ticket price includes a choice of meal, meaning you won’t have to worry about carrying money – which would only get soaking wet anyway. After a few hours of floating along, your meal will be served to you on the river by none other than the famous Hot Dog Man, who serves hot dogs, burgers, BBQ, kosher hot dogs and other treats from his pontoon boat food stand in the river.
At the end of the trip, hop the shuttle back to your starting point where they have changing rooms so you can get out of your wet clothes. Just what you’ll need to get spiffied up to spend the rest of your day in the towns of Lambertville, Frenchtown Square and New Hope which are all right nearby.
