Before departure, your guide will introduce you to the natural environment at the Hija River Nature Experience Center, and then paddle along while showing you the real thing. Be sure to explore the wonders of the creatures and plants for yourself!
  • A tour popular with a wide range of generations!
  • We'll be paddling slowly down a calm river, so people of all ages can enjoy it together. Kayaks are typically two-seaters, so paddling together fosters communication! Let's paddle together with family, friends, or loved ones. Of course, solo participants are also very welcome!
