Tubing in the Güape River Canyon
Tubing in the Güape River Canyon
At 5:30 am, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Villavicencio and drive to the municipality of La Uribe in a 4x4 vehicle.
As soon as we arrive, we'll put on our helmets and tubing waistcoats. Once equipped with all the material, we'll prepare the floats and we'll go to the embarkation point, which is located in El Limón. There, the instructor will explain some simple safety rules that we'll have to follow during the whole trip.
After this brief talk, we'll start tubing in the canyon of the Güape River. During this activity, which lasts between 5 and 6 hours, we'll have fun sliding down the river with floats and trying to overcome different torrents of white water.
In addition, on this trip we'll visit the cave of the 'guacharos', so called because of the birds that live in the cave. In fact, as we enter the cave we'll perceive how the constant flapping of these birds is the only sound that breaks the silence that reigns in these underground cavities.
We'll conclude the tubing activity in the area of La Resevera, where we'll have a delicious picnic including a selection of local specialities. After regaining our strength we'll finally return to your hotel in Villavicencio, where we're expected to arrive at 12:30 pm.
