Amazing experience, beautiful views, very responsible and great crew! You can rent shoes from the company, and be prepared for some work on the boat- paddling and working as a team with other members! And definitely do jump into the river for the swim- it was so good after all hard work… Highly recommended!

Loved the whole experience, our guide was focused on our safety and we felt comfortable on the river due to this. It would have been great to learn a little more history of the area perhaps at the start.
