Quimbaya Bamboo Raft Ride

At 9 am, we'll meet at Bolivar Square, where an all-terrain vehicle will take us to the river port of Quimbaya.

Once there, we'll board a typical bamboo raft, as used by the pre-Columbian Indians, and travel for 4 hours through Quimbaya.

We'll enjoy the natural surroundings and observe the flora and fauna along the river banks. Halfway through the ride, we will disembark to visit a local farm, where we'll have a typical lunch featuring the sudado montañero, a chicken and potato stew with tomato, onion, and yucca.

After lunch, we'll continue downstream while sharing stories of the area. Finally, we will return to the dock, where the jeep will pick us up and take us back to the starting point, arriving between 1 and 2 pm.
