What your outing looks like

The Experience Today is your day to cool off with a river swim, float about and row an upcycled local raft. And join us for cocktails/ mocktails paired with a forest-farm lunch made by kaki & kaka. But not before our feni-shots ritual. This one is for the chillers as much for tiny tots, mommies & daddies, the older mommies and daddies, et al. Though the doggos & cattos will have to stay off the river.
