River travel is smoother and is a lot more comfortable when you want to travel a longo one.
Long ago when people traveled by horse, river travel was faster and safer since there were really little in the way of roads.
River travel was a slow and risky way to travel. Traveling by boat limited the person to the direction of the river and its temperament. If the river was high and wild then travel may not be able to be made.
River travels ensured that more goods could be transported and that time could be saved considerably. The disadvantage is that traveling vessels were limited and the safety of those on board and goods was not guaranteed.
