Fabulous river experience!
This was a unique and relaxing tour. The river and nature were stunning. We saw so many birds and animals. It was raining for a bit and it didn’t matter at all. Highly recommend!

Unforgettable experience
First time in Costa Rica and love trying new adventures. David and Eric were excellent guides who were informative, supportive, embodied a Pura Vida mentality, and also prioritized safety. We had such an amazingly fun time and enjoyed seeing many birds and animals between going through the rapids. Unforgettable experience!

Amazing rafting trip
Oh, my goodness, what an amazing day! We did the Class III-IV trip, and it was fabulous. Steven trained us very well on how to follow his paddling instructions, and once he was confident that we'd absorbed the lessons, he gave us so much positive reinforcement, calling us "Familia" (which was so sweet) and praising our teamwork. The rapids were really exciting, and it was fun to get drenched! (Glad I switched out my glasses for contacts, though.)
We felt 100% safe, and in the milder stretches, Steven pointed out birds and other sights. David, the owner, went ahead of us and took photos and videos, which were so much fun to have. He's the second generation for the business, and he talked about how they've been taking more and more care of the environment.
After the river run, we had a delicious Costa Rican lunch, complete with cacao nibs, and we juiced sugar cane for dessert! Everyone was so sweet, and they made us feel really at home. And Mauricio did a great job driving us up the mountain to the put-in spot! Oh, and we loved the place where we stayed the night before, Chilamate Rainforest Eco Retreat. It's only 15 minutes away, which made for a very relaxed morning. The day before, we had a tour at Costa Rica Best Chocolate, which was also wonderful--and turns out to be run by a childhood friend of David's!
All in all, the rafting trip was one of the best things we did in Costa Rica. Highly recommend!

Adrenaline pumping fun
Such a fun time! Definitely a highlight of our Costa Rica adventure. Jordy and Juan were joyful and extremely competent. Definitely an adrenaline pumping ride in which I got completely soaked. Jordy kept the whole trip very lively with fun. During the smooth sections, they pointed out monkeys, toucans, kingfishers, tiger, snowy and blue herons, an osprey and a sloth. So worth the money and drive.

Great guide = Great time
I really enjoyed this tour. Both the guide and the owner were so kind and informative! They taught us how to work together as a team to really maneuver the rapids safely. I promise we felt like an Olympic rowing team by the end of the excursion. lol We also got some great action shots out of it as well. Definitely recommend.
