Just keep in mind that float times will take longer if you stop to enjoy the beaches and the scenery. You'll want to get out every now and then and go for a swim or stretch your legs.
You don't have to worry about transportation, they've taken care of everything. They’ll drop you off with your tubes and then you can head down the water with your friends and family.
