Landa Falls

A few dollars More expensive than most for tubes but longer float and free shuttle back. However they can run out of tubes sooner. Easier parking and no shuttle to second line at river entry.

Decent float, stay away from Saturdays as they are packed with drunks, loud music, a heavy, HEAVY police presence, and it’s packed. I mean some parts of the river we were tube to tube with other floaters. Maybe if we came on a weekday it would have been more pleasant.
Tubes are 20 $ and the shuttle ride is free now. We never paid any kind of deposit? :/​
I saw a little girl find a big peice of glass where we got off the river to go to the shuttle. She thought it was a rare stone lol.
Also the drunks here are plastered. I watched someone argue with his group of friends that bringing a glass bottle of tequila was a bad Idea as they decided to toss it in the river after killing it.
Kinda like my vibe the whole time.

Excellent place to tube! We got in at the first point in the river and the last place out. Easy to get back by shuttle and jump in the river again! Staff was wonderful! We lost our key in the river and they waited for us as we waited for the locksmith, even though it was hours after it closed. Even offered to take us to our hotel. Amazing service!

What a great place to tube!
This is a tube rental place right on the grounds of where they hold Wurstfest. There is plenty of parking that’s in a private, gated lot so my car felt safe.
We mistakenly rented too many tubes. Once we got them all inflated, and found that we’d rented two extra, they happily refunded the rental price! Nice!
The place where you park is within easy walking distance of the river where you hop in. There’s a ramp and stairs to get down there to the river.
The staff here was friendly, and even took pictures for us while we posed with the tubes!
The river ride was nice, and long. There’s plenty of shade, and even a tube shoot along the river!
This is a great tube rental place, and really makes a fun afternoon happen!

We got there right at 10 and were able to get a parking spot and our tubes right away. With the river so high, it only took us two hours to get to the last public exit, and the shuttle was waiting right there for us. You pay once and can float as many times as you like!

This was my first Texas tubing experience and I’d have to say, it was pretty fun!
I’ve been tubing before but in West Virginia … It’s different in Texas, probably because the river is narrow so there is a limit on how many tubes can be handed out per hour, per rental company. Yes this is a real rule. We had to wait 30 minutes for our tubes — not because they ran out but they had to space out their rentals as to not create «traffic».
This is the longest trip on the Comal, we got in at 2pm and were back at our car just after 7pm. We had no idea we cut it so close; their shuttle ends at 8pm which is when they close. I would absolutely suggest coming earlier (like when they open!) — we got there just after 12:30, with the line and waiting to actually get a tube, you can see how much time was wasted.
They don’t allow your own tubes on Saturdays although I saw a few people hopping on the river with their own equipment. You may bring your own cooler tubes though, any day. They ran out of tubes w/​bottoms (to hold coolers) so my husband ran to Buc-ee’s; by the time he got back we had our tubes and began to situate ourselves for the float ahead.
Rental prices are similar to near by companies.
Some parts of the river were really shallow, lift your butt! There are 2 «shoots» that get you to the ‘lower level’ of the river. They are fun but since every rental company uses the same route there is a major back up at each «shoot»; only 1 or 2 tubes can go down together so a line quickly forms.
We had fun but were ready to be done at what was probably the 4^th hour. We didn’t get out of our tubes at all although there are spots where you can hang out.
I’m glad we had snacks in our cooler, definitely bring something to nibble on. Cans are allowed, bring a trash bag — be kind to our environment! The first half of the river is 100% in the sun so bring SPF, later on the float we were in the shades, beautiful trees creating a canopy of shade… Greatly needed on a hot summer day!
The water temp was perfect & refreshing. It’s a calm trip other than the shoots but those are like a water park slide, nothing crazy.

Fair prices. Nice staff. Very long ride down the river. Stream was slow. The shuttle showed up fast and returned us back to the parking lot in a few minutes! Thanks for the fun

$ 10 per person for the shuttle. A bit of a rip off.
We ended up having to get out of the river almost immediately after getting in and walked back to Landa Falls. No refund.

Landa Falls works out of a building on the Wurstfest grounds. It’s the farthest upstream of any of the tube rental places, making it the longest float on the Comal River. The parking lot is very nice and seems to be secure. They offer regular tubes (yellow with handles and cup holders), tubes with bottoms, and cooler tubes. The rental process is quick and easy.
There are two spots where you can get out of the river, and the shuttle bus will take you back to Landa Falls. The shuttle is included in the price of the tube rental, and you can make more than one run down the river if you like.
For my money, Landa Falls is the only place to go if you want to tube the Comal.

False advertising. They don’t have as many of those nice yellow tubes as you would think. They gave us those ugly black tubes with no cup holders that get scorching hot in the sun. They’re also pretty dirty and leave black marks on you. I got lucky but some of my friends were covered in black marks by the end. You can’t bring personal tubes on Saturday and Sunday. They have a small parking lot that gets filled up fast so you have to park down the street and walk. I would suggest pulling up front and unloading your coolers, etc. first and then parking. Don’t follow the pictures that correspond to the pricing on the website. All tubes are $ 15. Even though they say «cooler tube only» for $ 5…still $ 15.

I totally like this! THREE hours float from start til end, if you come when they first open, you can go for another run. I didn’t and couldnt get another run squeezed in. They stop picking yall up by 5. Im disappointed on that part, wait, that’s not my most disappointed part, the restroom looked… scratch that, SMELLED like it hasn’t been cleaned since 1950’s. You could smell it all the way across the parking lot. Ugh! But if you went before you got there, then I give this 4 stars on the price and floating part. I definitely will use this again.

Great place to hit the river

Great tubing, they boast the longest river float on the Comal. Lots of fun! The tubes are a little small, but they have a cup holder which is nice. I’m not a huge fan of these new tubes with handles and tiny center holes, but they work. Give me an old fashioned inner tube please! There’s a huge grassy area with picnic tables in the shade to hang out before and after your launch. There’s a bathroom to change in if you didn’t come prepped for the water. Saturday and Sunday are the only days you can’t BYOF (Bring Your Own Float). Remember the new rules, no disposable containers of any kind. Just fill your camel pack with a mix of your favorite beverage and you’ll be fine. Or a water jug full of some trashcan punch! But bring some non-​disposable cups, Solo cups are illegal! Crazy rules, but I guess it’s all for the environment and the asthetics of the Comal, so I’m not gonna complain, just glad to have a nice clean rinver to float on.

Landa is the only place I’ve rented from on the Comal. I can only say that we’ve had good service every time we’ve rented from them, their start point is very convenient and gives a long float, and parking has always been adequate. We’ve never had a long wait for a shuttle, either. We’ll continue to use them.
For our recent visit (Aug. 2012), they had eliminated the deposits on tubes.
Update Aug. 2014: after two more years, still think Landa Falls is the best rental place on the Comal. Their rates are the same as the other major players on the river, but when you pass by some of the downstream rental places, you’ll be reminded of that movie «World War Z» — hordes. Have never had any problems with Landa, the shuttles are always there when we exit the river — it just works. Get there right at 10 a.m. when they open to beat the crowds.

Nothing but positive things to say about Landa Falls!
My personal recommendation for floating ANYWHERE is to bring your own tubes. That way you never have to complain about not knowing what the tube would look like, fit like, etc.
I used Landa Falls several times over the course of a year and had a great experience with them every time. I brought my own tube and cooler tube, and used them as my transportation back to the top. $ 10 isn’t bad, especially if you go two or even three times in one day (which I did on a number of Fridays and Saturdays).
As for the comments about it being a «bunch of kids» running the place… yeah… it’s a tubing company. Did you expect 30’s and 40’s to drop their office jobs and come running? Not exactly 401k material here, guys; just sayin. It’s the perfect place for high school and college kids to work, and the ones here typically do a great job; props to y’all!
They’re always helpful getting you through the line and into the river, and do a great job taking care of you when you haul your wet hiney out at the end.
Prost!
PS: Just got ready to submit this and saw the question asking «Good for kids?» My answer is «Yes, Landa Falls is great for kids. Tubing the river, however can be a different story since you never know what rowdy group you’ll end up floating next to. Just be aware and don’t be offended.»

Planned a float down the river and it turned out great. If you bring your own tubes and get there early, you will have a large part of the trip all to yourself. This trip includes a spring fed river (so it’s full and cold) as well as a ride through a tube chute, yes, a tube chute!

Beer an bag o wine: $ 40 ice and cooler: $ 17 gas to get there: $ 20… Closing down early and ruining my day off… Priceless… Thanks a lot jerks!

We floated the Comal this past weekend and used Landa Falls twice. Yes, the cupholders in the tube were very useful. We didn’t have to wait for the shuttle at the end. It seemed a little pricy, but no one in our group had floated the Comal previously and we didn’t know what to expect. It did appear to be the longest float.
Overall, I was pleased with the tube and the service.

Billed as the «longest float on the Comal» I was appreciative of the free, expansive parking lot. While the line looked long, it moved rather quickly (spent maybe 10 – 15 minutes in line and it reached the water fountain/​map area.)
$ 15 for regular yellow tubes (which they ran out of) and $ 20 for bottomed tubes (black inner tire tubes with a piece of plastic tied on.) They gave us the tubes with the bottom for $ 15 since they were out of the cheaper option, which were a little awkward at first, but we were very thankful for on the occasional (one or two) bumpy shallow areas of the river.
They had plenty of nylon rope to tie your mesh trash bag (also provided) to your tube, and to tie yourself to the friends that you want to stay with (which I recommend doing for all but the slide type things.) Whole float took about ~3 hours (get out the river at the last public exit) but the ride back was very quick — had no problem getting my deposit back.
I gotta say, it was a very spontaneous tubing trip, but everything concerning Landa Falls went smoothly.

I think this place is way overpriced, and next time I want to go to the Comal I will take my own tubes and park a car at the end to take us back after. It’s way more economical than going to Landa Falls, and there’s a free parking lot at the Landa Park river entrance anyway. It costs $ 25 up front for a bottomless tube ($ 30 for one with a bottom!) and you get $ 10 back when you return. I charged the initial amount to my card and the deposit was returned to me in cash, which I didn’t like. The price said it included unlimited trips so if it felt too short (which it almost did) you could go again I think, but I didn’t go more than once so I can’t confirm that.
They had a douche-​y guy standing at the entrance and I don’t know what the heck his job was but he wasn’t doing it. He could have told us the lot was full but instead he just waved us on through and kept talking to the people standing outside the gate with him. Aside from that it wasn’t totally terrible service, just a bunch of young kids who didn’t really care what was going on, just that they were getting their jobs done. We went on a Saturday afternoon and we didn’t actually have to wait too long in line.
I did like the Comal, but that has nothing to do with Landa Falls.

We stopped here by accident. We meant to go to Landa RV & R-​B River Trips but we missed the turn and we stumbled upon Landa Falls.
It was packed so we thought we were in the right place. There is parking next to the river as well as additional parking down the street in a huge field.
The bad part about this place is the price. It really costs the most compared to other Comal River tubing joints. It’s $ 15 without a bottom PLUS a $ 10 deposit (which is temporarily charged to cards, or they hold your cash). Every tube that is rented requires this deposit. It is def a pain in the arse.
Tubes with bottoms are $ 20. Tubes with coolers are $ 22. Yes, they all include deposits.
The good? They provide rope if you want to tie your tubes together. Also, they let you have mesh trash bags for all your trash that you bring on the river. There are cup holders IN the tubes, that was pretty badass.
The Comal River was pretty enjoyable to float down, it wasn’t too too crowded on a Saturday. The Saturday crowd is there to party to be ready for that if you’re looking to bring your family or kids.
The shuttle was quick and painless, it picks up on various part of the river so that was a plus. Also, it was relatively easy to recover your deposit as long as you showed up before closing time.
Don’t think I would go again because it’s the most expensive but if you dont mind the upcharge, Landa Falls is a decent choice.

We always float out of Landa Falls for the «longest float on the Comal.» A Central Texas summer must do!
Located on the Wurstfest grounds.
