Over the past three years, not just one but two floating restaurants have wooed adventurous diners. River taxis, which can be booked through the Safer River, Life Saver Foundation at the Liceo de Cagayan University, offered breathtaking, 45-minute tours from behind the San Agustin Cathedral to the mouth of the Macajalar Bay and back.
