Excombatientes are building a new tourism industry of rafting in Colombia. In the jungle supported by a cast of monkeys, sloths and birds.
Our quiet coffee on the edge of the forest is broken by the approach of the FARC. A clutch of wiry men with hard faces walk purposefully towards us. A couple of short years ago, this would have been a reason to start worrying – this used to be one of Colombia’s most dangerous zones. We don’t need to fear the FARC approaching us today though – they’re the ones to guide us downriver!
