Lo que mas disfrute fueron los viajes en el bote, el atardecer en la Laguna, la buena predisposicion del guia y la visita a canoa las comunidades. El guia sabe mucho sobre -- la flora y la fauna de la selva, aprendi mucho de lo enseñado por el, es muy simpatico y predispuesto a enseñar, Muchas gracias.

This yacht accommodates 16 passengers in eight big double cabins with air conditioning, private bathroom hot/cold water and upper/lower berths.

The Darwin is ideal for people who are afraid of getting seasick or like lots of space on the yacht for their holiday.
