Here's everything you need to know for a smooth and enjoyable experience on the Bogue Chitto River:

Preparing for your Tubing Trip: 

Bring sunscreen, water shoes, and a waterproof bag for your belongings. Consider packing snacks, drinks and a cooler (they provide a tube just for your cooler) to enjoy while floating down the river. There are two ways to go down the river, the long way which takes 4 hours and the shorter way which takes 2 hours. You can also bring or rent a kayak if that’s more your speed.

Traveling from New Orleans:

Bogue Chitto State Park is about 75 miles from where our houses are in New Orleans proper, approximately a 1.5-hour drive. The journey offers beautiful views of Louisiana's countryside. Be sure to follow the directions to the park as the website lays out; sometimes the country roads can get confusing to navigate. 

Cost:

Tube rentals are available and typically cost around $20 per person. The entrance fee to Bogue Chitto State Park is $3 per person.
