Cruising the Delaware on a Rubber Donut in Frenchtown, New Jersey
Let’s be upfront about this—there’s nothing at all dignified about plopping your keister into the hole of a school bus-yellow rubber donut and casting off into a river. Your posture is awkward, legs flailing in the air and arms propped at chest level, not to mention that you’re wearing a life jacket in three-feet-deep water. But then you look around, see that everyone else looks equally silly, and sit back to enjoy the scenic four-hour ride. That’s the great democratizing effect of lazy river-tubing. Just a 90-minute drive west of the city, where the Delaware River is broad and slow, Delaware River Tubing offers these very simple, and incredibly relaxing, trips. Better yet, a burger and dogs BBQ lunch is included in the price.
