New Braunfels River Trip

New Braunfels River Tubing with Austin Party Bus

A New Braunfels river float on a party bus from Austin is the ultimate Texas summer getaway packed with fun, music, and relaxation.

The experience kicks off in Austin as your group boards a decked-out party bus—complete with booming sound systems, LED lights, and BYOB-friendly coolers. The vibe is energetic from the start, with your crew singing along to playlists, playing drinking games, and snapping selfies as you cruise through the Hill Country.

After about an hour, you arrive at the Comal or Guadalupe River in New Braunfels, where tubes, ice chests, and all-day float wristbands are ready to go. You’ll launch onto the water, floating under the sun past cypress trees and limestone banks. The float typically lasts 2–4 hours, depending on water levels and the river chosen.

During the float, you’ll link tubes with friends, enjoy cold drinks, and meet other floaters who are also there to soak up the good vibes. Some sections offer gentle rapids, while others are perfect for chilling and drifting.

Once the float ends, you’ll dry off, maybe grab some grub from a local taco truck or riverside bar, then hop back on the party bus for a high-energy ride back to Austin—tired, sun-kissed, and still buzzing from the day’s adventure.

Perfect for birthdays, bachelor/bachelorette parties, or just a weekend escape.
