BANGKEROS

Description

The bangkeros' (boatmen) job is to pull the bamboo raft using a rope carrying tourists and visitors to bring them underneath the waterfalls where they enjoy mother nature's shower. After touring the cave inside the falls, they take the guests back to the waiting area and pick up the next batch of adventurous people.
