Guadalupe River tubing in New Braunfels is a quintessential Texas summer tradition that families love. Multiple outfitters along the Guadalupe River rent tubes and provide shuttle service for a lazy float down the river. The Horseshoe Loop area is especially popular for families. It's a shorter, gentler stretch suitable for kids. The crystal-clear water, shaded by towering cypress trees, makes for a refreshing escape. Best for kids 5+ who are comfortable in water.
