A tour sailing the waterways of the fabulous Iguazu River, to venture into natural areas and have the possibility of seeing native wildlife: monkeys, alligators, lizards, speckled capybaras, corzuelas, and many varieties of birds can stand in our path.
This vast region of beautiful rivers and mountains and small coastal communities offers the experience of sailing in a canoe and moving forward, discovering the flora, fauna, and the secrets of a region not well known and very interesting.
MODALITY
Journey canoes
Canadian type, sit on top (for 2 or 3 people each). Navigation is downstream and requires no previous experience. Overnight in tents in campgrounds (without the comforts of a conventional camping) on riverbank routes.
