The trip is enriched with stories and images from the past: in your hand you will have not only the paddle, but the photographs that immortalised those moments, making every stop a plunge into time.
Along the way you will stop at various points. The dinghies will be manoeuvred with your help, in areas of still water, and the tour guide will resume and enrich the discourse begun on land.
Get ready to discover history on the river, on the 80th anniversary of the destruction of Cassino during World War II.
