Madison River Tubing is your one stop shop for fun on the water.
If you want to float the Madison River, we're the only ones who do it. We've been running tube trips out of Bozeman since 1992, and the river hasn't gotten any less perfect for it. Warm, slow, and about as low-effort as a Montana afternoon gets.
Trips run daily in season (June-September). Want us to drive you to the put-in and back? That's the Town to River trip. Already got your group and just need tubes? Meet us at the River instead. Either way you get the gear, the shuttle, and a trusted crew that's done this enough times to make it look easy.
Need gear without the trip? Our shop on Main Street rents tubes, SUPs, rafts, inflatable kayaks, and canoes by the day.

About Us
Madison River Tubing is a family-owned business in Bozeman, Montana since 1992. After three decades of shuttling people up and down the Madison River, we’ve learned the best part of summer is usually the simplest one: float, relax, repeat.
Madison River Tubing provides a variety of services for you to take advantage of. We offer tubing trips and a river shuttle on the beautiful Madison River. We also offer a variety of river rentals including: river tubes, rafts, inflatable kayaks, canoes, PackRafts, and SUP Rentals.

Our love for the outdoors is a passion that we are honored to share with you.




Why We Do What We Do
For The Environment
Global Warming isn't just a buzz word, it is a reality we are all witnessing. It is 35 miles each way to the Madison River, not including shuttling. That is about 3 gallons of gas per car or more if you drive a truck. Most floaters take two cars to facilitate shuttling. So 6 gallons for every 4 people floating. Go green and use the river shuttle!
For The Resource
We hear from the river managers that parking gets overloaded at both Warm Springs and Black's Ford on the Madison. Our river shuttle helps to ease congestion at these sites which improves the overall experience for all river users and makes the river managers job a bit easier.
Our tubing trips also aim to eliminate garbage on the river by providing mesh trash bags and not allowing glass. We HIGHLY recommend that you purchase or rent a waterproof phone case or dry bad to hold your phone and dry goods. We do not want phones to end up at the bottom of the river, eventually polluting our beautiful water. Let's all show a little respect to the resources we love to recreate on!
For You
Having a great time on the river is what floating is all about. For many, alcohol is a part of this fun. When overindulgence happens lives are at risk, yours and anyone else on the road with you. Madison River Tubing wants you to be able to have a worry-free river tubing experience from the time you leave Bozeman to the time you return. Each year there are numerous DUI stops involving tubers. Don't be that guy, jump on our river shuttle.

I loved tubing here! It was warm water and weather and beautiful scenery. It wasn't too difficult to put in or get out, with small children. My big kids loved it too!HANNAH TUCKER
