Morning light hits the rainforest rim and the river answers — a green ribbon that pushes travelers downstream toward rapids, waterfalls and a 100‑meter drop at the Puente de San Francisco. The day begins on the water: guides brief the group, inflatable rafts cut into a river that has earned a global reputation for its mix of technical rapids and calm stretches ideal for photos and short swims.
