The Casa Rosada can organise you a boat pick up at 09:30 to take you to Rio Dulce. The cost is just 100Q. If you are staying elsewhere in town, go to the wharf and ask. Expect to pay 125Q!

They can also help you to take the boat from Rio Dulce to Livingston.

I'd sourced a 2-night stay at the Hotel Rio Dulce, which is literally just a few minutes walk away.
