The tour will commence at 18:00 hours from sidewalkcafe ‘t Vat.

Here we will take a little walk over the former sugar plantation and visit a local family where we will have a lovely Hindustani meal.
After dinner and when the sun has set it is time to prepare (covering clothes and apply plenty mosquito gel). From here we board smaller boats and go into the swamp to find and catch some caimans. The boat ride itself is a little adventure in itself already.

Satisfied it is time to head back to the bigger boat and back with the car again.
