River Floating Is the Slowest, Best Thing You Can Do on a Hot Day
Why tubing down a river is the most underrated form of slow travel — and where in the world it's worth flying for.
There’s a version of travel that involves itineraries, reservations, early alarms, and timed entry tickets. And then there’s river floating. The two approaches don’t have much in common.
River floating, or tubing as it’s often called, is exactly what it sounds like. You get in an inflatable tube, you sit down, and the river takes you somewhere. You don’t choose the pace. You don’t navigate. You mostly just float and watch the world from a perspective that is, genuinely, unlike any other.
It sounds simple because it is. That’s the whole point.
