Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's logically track the chronological steps required to reach the destination:
Sentence C initiates the description by introducing the target destination ("To reach the village of Puerto Luz...") and stating the initial movement ("the first step is to get to the city of Puerto Maldonado.").

Sentence D logically connects to C using the phrase "The next step is...", taking the travelers to the banks of the Tambopata River.

Sentence A carries the transit forward from the river banks ("Then comes a ride over the river...").

Sentence B completes the route description by outlining the final transport stage ("In the town of Delta... to cover the final 30-minute leg").

Thus, the proper narrative order is C, D, A, B.
