  • a very beautiful place for you to visit, I recommend for you and your family or your partner here, later you will feel for yourself how this place is so extraordinary
  • Absolutely gorgeous. Súper cool at night.
  • Variety of restaurants where you can sit and enjoy the views, cruise the river on a guided tour or rent a kayak! Love this place!!
  • Stunning views of the river and the city! Lots of great places to stop along the way, and plenty of boat tour options.
  • So much to do on the Riverwalk. There are places to eat and drink, but also areas to sit and relax. Enjoy the music and entertainment while enjoy the beautiful views of the city. We had so much fun!
