Summary: My colleague and I did the three-day tour, and it was an incredible experience. Everything was superbly organized by the organizer, Nenand. We received briefings at the beginning, and then the adventure began. The river and the landscapes were breathtaking. The mix of wild and quiet sections was just right. Another plus was our guide, who had so much to share about the region and culture. There was never a shortage of fun. The accommodations were also very good and authentic. We can 100% recommend this experience and will never forget it. Thank you, Nenad & Srdjan
