This full-day experience will take you to discover two of the most beautiful and surprising treasures in the region: El Danubio and Oasis La Sirena, known for their crystal-clear waters, tropical landscapes, and peaceful atmosphere, perfect for disconnecting from the city's rhythm.
The activity kicks off with a meet-up in Cali and a scenic tour through the rural and mountainous area that leads to the park entrance.

This spot is a favorite with visitors for its crystal-clear water, serenity, and perfect spaces to swim, relax, or snap incredible photos. Throughout the hike, we'll make strategic stops to rest and hydrate, always with the guide's support.
After enjoying the river and some free time to explore at your own pace, we'll head to a local house where a delicious typical lunch prepared with fresh local ingredients awaits you. If you have food preferences or need a vegetarian option, just let us know in advance.
