How do we Ensure Safety when Tubing with Kids

La Leona Waterfall Tubing with Kids: Small Children

For small children they are assigned a tour guide specifically to them for the entire tour. This tour guide will hold onto their tube the entire time to ensure that they cannot fall or flip out of their tube. The children will also go without a paddle and the tour guide will push them through the slow sections. This ensures a safe and stress free experience for everyone participating in the tour. You can enjoy the rapids while knowing that your child is in excellent hands with their buddy who will not leave their side until they get through the rapids safety.

La Leona Waterfall Tubing with kids: Teenagers

For teenagers and adults you will go through the rapids on your own and then the tour guides will position themselves in the larger rapids to ensure you get through these larger rapids safety. You will also have a paddle that you will use to get through the slow sections of the river that do not have rapids. Regardless of your age you will have a team of tour guides by your side the entire time to ensure your safety and create a fun and exciting experience.

What is the Minimum Age for La Leona Waterfall Tubing?

La Leona Waterfall White water river tubing with Kids

The minimum age for La Leona Waterfall River Tubing is 6 years old.

Can I Share a Tube with My Child?

No, you cannot share a tube. This is for the child’s safety. The tubes are designed for only one person so when 2 people are in a tube the adult can flip on top of the child which can be dangerous for everyone involved. The safest way for children to go through the rapids is to be in their own tube while a tour guide holding onto them a guiding them through the rapids the entire time.

Do Children us a Paddle While Tubing?

It will depend on the age of the child. For small children they will not use one and instead the tour guide will push their tube through the slow sections of the rapids.

At What Age do Children go Tubing Without a Guide Specifically Assigned to Them?

There is not a specific age that children will go tubing without a tour guide specifically assigned to them. It depends on the children’s size as well as the time of year.

During the rainy season the water levels are higher leading to larger rapids. During this time of year even adults will sometimes have a tour guide buddy to taxi them through the rapids. During the dry season the rapids are smaller so teenagers and adults can go through with just the tour guides positioned in the larger rapids.

We did La Leona Waterfall with La Leona Waterfall Adventure Hike and I must say it was one of the best parts of our entire trip! We did the combo tour with river tubing and it was just amazing. The guides were like safety superheroes, always looking out for us and ensuring we felt safe and sound.

They also spoke excellent English like it was no big deal, so we chatted easily about all the nature stuff around us. These guys seriously knew their stuff, dropping all sorts of cool facts about plants and wildlife during the hike. And then, during the tubing ride, these guides were on fire! Zooming through the river like they were born to do it, they kept a keen eye on where we were so we didn’t miss a beat. Safety was totally their jam, and you could feel it.

If you’re looking for an adventure that’s got it all, do yourself a favor and book with this crew. No doubt about it, this was by far one of the highlights of our trip in Costa Rica

“I chose the La Leona Waterfall Adventure Hike because so many great reviews about how they are with kids. We did a private tour with Francisco. He was so patient and kind with our three kids. He was extremely knowledgeable and taught our kids things that really interested them.

I picked this company for safety on the river tubing. They provided each of my boys with their own personal guide, who made sure they were safe and never flipped during the tubing. It was so great for me to not have to worry about them because they were in good hands.

I highly recommend booking with this company.”

“We spent the day with Victor of La Leona Waterfall Adventure Hike tubing and hiking to the waterfall. We have four kids between the ages of 6-11 and the company had 4 guides for our group tubing. We loved it and felt very safe! Victor stayed with us for the hike and was engaging and fun. Our kids loved learning about our surroundings, exchanging some spanish/english and even saw monkeys a couple times! The waterfall was amazing – we had plenty of time to swim and take pictures. Awesome day!!”
