Cano Cristales with hotel in La Macarena
Hotel in La Macarena
In La Macarena town there are pretty nice hotels, 3 stars, some with A/C (for an extra fee in some of them, around 10 dollars per night) and pool.
You will be in the town in the evenings, plus you have to take a jeep and a boat (included in the plan, of course) every day to visit the river.
It is good if you prefer a little bit of luxury in your trip or internet connexion in the evenings.
Tours in this option are shared with other visitors, although you can also ask for a private tour, for an additional cost.
There is a hotel called La Manigua, which is a great option to stay, but it has different costs than the standard plan.
