Experience the thrill of holding own to your own raft and descending some quick, loud, and fun rapids on this amazing water tubing (or bugging) experience on the River Tummel, near Edinburgh! Since 2003, Splash Rafting Limited has run river bugging trips on the River Tummel, River Tay & Pinkston watersports (Glasgow) all year round. They brought the sport over to Scotland from New Zealand and have become real experts at running a safe, but incredibly fun experience for clients who dare try this awesome activity.

River bugs are a great way to play on the river if you want that little bit more excitement than the traditional rafting experience. They are ideal for summer river levels. On the day of your water tubing (or bugging) experience on the River Tummel, near Edinburgh, you'll need to arrive at the meeting point in the Clunie Power Station at Pitlochry. There, you'll meet your expert instructor who will give you a thorough safety and activity briefing, as well as give you tips and tricks to surpass the obstacles on the excursion. Then, you can leave whatever you don't need in the car and trust the team to keep it safe for you while you're having fun. And once you're ready, you'll hop on the vehicle that will drive you toward the starting point of the activity!

After receiving expert instruction from the experienced river bug guides, you’ll hike for a bit over rocky terrain to reach the river. You'll be at the ready with your webbed gloves, full wetsuit, helmet, life jacket, and tube and once it's your turn, you'll hit the river! Your guide will help you negotiate your own path down the white water rapids as you splash and descend the fun rapids available on this scottish river and once you're done, you can do it again. Once the 2 hours of the activity run out, you'll return the equipment and drive back to the meeting point for the end of your water tubing (or bugging) experience on the River Tummel, near Edinburgh.

Don't forget to bring your swimsuit, some old sports shoes that can get wet, a non-cotton base layer if you want to wear it under your wetsuit, and anything else you might need (medication, water, snacks, etc.) to spend an amazing 2 hours on this water tubing (or bugging) experience on the River Tummel, near Edinburgh!
