A
superb river side lunch is served prepared fresh by our guides right
in front of your eyes. Boats are either run as paddle boats where
you participate by paddling as a team with a guide sitting in the
back steering, oar boats where guests hang on as we run the rapids
or combo boats where the guide rows and you paddle (which is good
if there are some outgoing members of your party and some who are
happy to just hang on). |
