The trip on the river lasts for about 2 ½ hours and includes a river snack at the end; fresh fruits, cookies, natural beverages and water will be served.
After the snack you will make a 55 minutes drive to get to the Rincon Corobici Restaurant where you will have a delicious hot lunch waiting, also you are able to use the rest rooms.
