The raft eases away from a shaded bank and the river takes over: warm water pressing at the bamboo poles, reggae drifting from the captain’s speakers, and palms leaning in as if to listen. On a 30-foot handcrafted raft the captain pilots with a pole; the current nudges you downstream while the valley’s limestone bed keeps the pace even and approachable.
