WeatherBest Season: The sunset cruise operates year-round, but the best time is during the dry season (May to October) when skies are clear, and sunsets are more dramatic. Rainy Season: Cruises still operate during the rainy season (November to April), but departures may be delayed or rescheduled in case of heavy rain or storms. Temperature Considerations: Evenings on the river can be cooler, especially in winter (June – August), so bring a light jacket or sweater.
