Recommendations for a pleasant boat-trip
- Wear shorts - you will probably face situations where you need to step (or jump) into the water. In this case shorts are a way smarter choice than jeans.
- Put water-proof luggage on bottom - as a must, water always finds its way into the boat floor. In this case, it is always a good idea to have your water-resistant belongings at the bottom.
- Bring along snacks - hiking and fresh air will make you hungry. Always have some nutrient-filled snacks and water ready.
- Plan excess time on your trip. Depending on the river, weather, your physical condition, etc the movement speed may vary. Therefore, always know that a straight river on maps means curvy river in the real world.
- Wear flip-flops! Sometimes, when you have to walk in the river, flip-flops will protect your legs.
