Nice, safe, and fun
This was a great alternate excursion to the cruise line and well priced. We were shuttled us from Port to the river. Then came inner tubes and a raft. We got to swim, rope swing, raft paddling, and some beach time. The driver took us for some jerk chicken on the way back as well.
We got advice on shopping and haggling prices as well. They safely returned us to Port and had good happy attitudes the entire time.

Terrific tubing
We loved this excursion, Davian our guide was friendly knowledgeable and catered for the needs of the group. Tubing was a great experience. Our safety and welfare were considered. Honestly the best trip of the holiday.

Great fun with a small group
This was a small group - just us and another family of 5. We were advised since the water level was so low we should go on the tubes instead. Great call! Davian was a super guide, sharing lots of information about the local culture, flora, and fauna. He kept us safe and comfortable throughout the day. We climbed to sit under a small waterfall and even had the opportunity to jump from an 8 ft bridge. We tuned down the river all the way to the ocean. Our driver even stopped (at our request) for the best Jerk Chicken in town. GREAT DAY-Fun Memory making!

Lots of fun river rafting
We thoroughly enjoyed this river rafting. We had a nice bus ride from the cruise terminal. We had about 35 tubers and rafters on our bus. We started out walking up river about 10 minutes to see what they call Bengal Falls. It was very pretty and fun to swim in. They brought the rafts up to us. We went through a lot of rapids but they were not rough enough to knock anybody out of the raft or get us wet. At the end of the raft trip, they hooked us up to a motor boat to tow us the rest of the way out of the Rio Bueno and out into the ocean that led us to Bengal Beach. We were able to rinse off and buy water, red stripe beer, or even strawberry daiquiris. The one thing I wish I knew before hand is that we could leave our stuff like towels and backpack on the bus and that bus would meet us at the beach to take us back to the cruise terminal
