The raft slips away from the riverbank and the engine of the day quiets—only the bamboo creaks and the river’s current presses you forward. On the Roseau River a 90‑minute bamboo gondola carries small groups through a corridor of green: ferns brushing the raft’s edge, orchids clinging to trunks, and sunlight slicing the canopy into bright ribbons.
