About This Tour
Our tour is a unique blend of animal encounters, unspoiled nature areas, as well as a fun and friendly captain and crew. It appeals to all ages - our comfortable pontoon is wheelchair accessible. Once we are underway, we encourage our passengers to move around the boat and enjoy the sights. We thrive on the spontaneity of the river wildlife, so no two tours are exactly the same.
