Theese boats represents a new tourism proposal that is gaining more and more consensus. The connection of tourists by waterways, even between regions, is recognized as a new ecological mode of transport. River tourism is a growing phenomenon throughout Europe because it allows visitors to arrive in areas or corners of the territory that are sometimes isolated but of unique environmental value.
Cycling tourism and the rediscovery of the territories are deeply felt by the different age groups and it is for this reason that, in addition to the extraordinary numbers recorded, it was decided to extend the service also for the months of October and December, focusing on weeekends.
