Native Cultures Feast & Float
<p>The beautiful Rio Grande valley is home to many Pueblo Indian tribes who still follow their traditional ways. Majestic mountains frame life-giving waters, which meander through a gorgeous land sacred to Native peoples for thousands of years. Float a tranquil section of the Rio Grande with two guides: one to row the raft, and a Native American interpretive guide who shares Pueblo history, culture and lore with you. The stories of the Native guides, and their unique view of the land they live in, provide an intimate glimpse of a very special and ancient civilization.</p>
<p>After floating for a about an hour to an hour & a half , or a little longer in low water, you disembark to find a delicious traditional feast meal awaiting you. If it is an <strong>Afternoon</strong> adventure the meal will be served first, then float. The special meal is prepared and served by a Pueblo Indian family. This traditional meal varies but usually includes red chile stew, blue corn posole, calabacitas, oven bread or fry bread, Indian pie, and Indian tea.</p>
