River Tubing Near Houston, TX

"Fun Things To Do Near Houston - Comal River Tubing!" Texas Tubes is in Houston's backyard, just a short 2 1/2 hour drive to our location right on the shores of the amazing Comal River! Texas Tubes is the closest place for Houston River Floating on the beautiful spring-fed crystal clear waters of the Comal River in New Braunfels. River Tubing in Houston is NOT offered on the Buffalo Bayou River, which is a super Lazy River running through west-central Houston. The water in the Buffalo Bayou River is brown and is moving so slow, that you're almost sitting at a complete stand still, barely moving in your tube, which is not any fun, so the next best place to float near Houston is in New Braunfels at Texas Tubes! Texas Tubes is located right on the shoreline of the Comal River, so when you arrive in your vehicle, you'll simply park, rent a tube, and jump in to the refreshing crystal-clear spring-fed waters of the Comal River and start having a fantastic time immediately, splashing around, floating, swimming, and blasting through the famous New Braunfels Tube Chute! 

The Comal River is the shortest navigable river in Texas and runs through the middle of downtown New Braunfels, so there are abundant restaurants, coffee houses, Pubs, Bars & Grills, a robust nightlife, music scene and venues, grocery stores, big box stores & small specialty stores, gas stations, and many other conveniences nearby for last minute items you might need on the river and to help you plan an amazing float trip on the Comal River.
