This full-day tour is transport-inclusive and well suited to travelers seeking active sightseeing with local guides.

You step off an air-conditioned shuttle into humid, salt-scented air and the day snaps into motion: a bamboo raft nudges away from riverbank reeds, a ribbon of travertine rock glints under your feet at the base of a falling wall of water, and later the lagoon answers the dark with electric blue ripples under your hands.
