The experience
What fits three separate attractions into one morning and afternoon without feeling rushed? A tour built around the drive itself. The vehicle is air-conditioned and spacious, and your guide handles all the stops so you move between them without planning. You start at your hotel, get picked up at the reception, and head to YS Falls first. A tractor takes you down to the falls where there's a pool at the top. Lifeguards are on duty. From there the driver takes you to Black River Safari, where you board a boat and head upriver to see crocodiles, mangroves and the river's habitats. Lunch is included at the end of that boat tour.
The final stop is Peleon Bar, a bar built in the middle of the ocean. The boat ride out takes about 10 minutes. The staff there are trained to keep you safe while you're on the water. Non-alcoholic drinks are included in your package, and the music and atmosphere are part of why this stop exists. It's not another nature site, it's a break. The whole day is 8.5 hours from pickup to return, which means you're back at your hotel with most of the afternoon or evening still open.
