Swimming in the crystal clear waters of the melcocho river is a unique and magical experience, and always safely. - Unique family experience, surrounded by adventure, magic, nature, beauty and the best a river with crystal clear and serene waters; accompanied by a professional guide (Daniel, his wife and their young children) who make the trip have magic, adventure and fantasy; in a transport as in a bus for 6 or 8 people.

Breaking down barriers - It was an amazing experience on the Melcocho River, connecting with the majesty of nature, Wonderful. Daniel told us everything he knows about the area, it was very professional (the indications were clear, I had the whole implementation of the tour), very patient as my friend fears the water (made her feel safe), the food was delicious (reminded me of old days of my childhood). I would definitely have a tour again
