Top Costa Rica White Water Rafting - page 2

Our white-water rafting excursion was easily one of the highlights of our trip! A huge thank you to our guide, Junior, who made the entire experience unforgettable. As first-time rafters, we were a little nervous, but Junior was incredibly friendly, professional, and knowledgeable from start to finish. He explained everything clearly, kept us informed throughout the trip, and most importantly, made us feel completely safe on the river. His confidence and expertise allowed us to relax, have fun, and enjoy the adventure. The rafting itself was exciting, beautiful, and well-organized, but Junior's outstanding service truly made the experience special. If you're considering this excursion, we highly recommend it—and if you get Junior as your guide, you're in excellent hands! Thank you, Junior, for an amazing adventure and memories we'll never forget!

Booked this experience because we had to fill one of our last days, and went into it with no expectations. Although I was a little nervous at first, it ended up being so fun! Our guide Aurelio was super nice and informative, and had an amazing vibe! We also felt super safe as there are many other rafts and individual guides in the river that go and help out when people get pulled in the water (although this is rare). Overall amazing experience, and even though this seems like more of an adrenaline excursion, at times it felt like a nature one as well because of the AMAZING views and huge amount of wild life (especially birds) that we got to see. Overall a 10/10 and I would highly recommend this if you’re looking for something fun and different for your trip!!

Excellent trip!! The tour guides were extremely friendly and fun! They knew lots of interesting information. They were eager to share lots of history, plants, animals, and anything they found interesting with us. The rapids were easy! There were a couple more intense ones but overall it was really enjoyable and would be great for all ages. The waterfall and snack break were great! Definitely worth it all.

Definitely one of our favorite days in Costa Rica. Jorge was an awesome river guide. Rapids were super fun. We saw a sloth from the river, had some really good fresh pineapple part way down tue river. Lunch was very good as well. Would definitely recommend this trip for any family that loves adventure and excitement.

We had the BEST time white water rafting. One of our favorite experiences while in Costa Rica. Andres was our guide and he was so fun and lively. We came from Puerto Viejo, the company picked us up directly from our hotel. It was about an hour and a half drive to the rafting place. We enjoyed breakfast and they had lockers to place our belongings. The rafting was so fun, be prepared to get absolutely soaked and to fully participate. It’s not a relaxing cruise down a river, you have to physically participate. It was an all day activity and at the end we were also fed lunch and able to change into a fresh pair of clothes. They then gave us a ride back to our hotel. We would definitely recommend this activity!!!

We had a communication blip on starting location as the location didn’t match the text communications. We thought we had hotel pickup and Wave thought we were meeting there. It ultimately was just an unfortunate miscommunication and we missed the morning departure for Zip-lining. Wave worked hard to rearrange our day to ensure we could still experience both. They were very accommodating and this entire experience ended up being the highlight of our trip! We had a blast experiencing the rapids with our guide Kervin. He was fun and very personable. We would highly recommend their company and use them again. Because we had to shift our time, we had to make it back for zip-lining by 3p. Wave coordinated an alternative lunch and got us delicious boxed lunches. We made it to Go Adventure and enjoyed a fun experience zip-lining! The guides were phenomenal and our 8 year old was very attached to his guide that travelled the lines with him! He was nervous at first but his guide made him feel so comfortable and he LOVED the experience. We were so grateful to both companies and the guides. This will definitely be an experience we’ll reflect fondly on and cherish memories from forever. Thank you!!

Absolutely amazing experience! I was a bit nervous going into it because I had never been river rafting before but it is totally doable and enjoyable! It is evident that the guides are very knowledgeable and LOVE what they do. Unreal views of the forest, can see wildlife, super sick drive on a “tractor” to the river. Would definitely book again.

Amazing experience from start to finish. One of the guides, Pablo, along with the driver, picked us up at our hotel. Pablo was friendly and knowledgeable. We picked up a couple of other groups, headed to the main office and filled out our waivers and then headed out. All of the guides were friendly and helpful. Once we arrived at the launching site they helped us all gear-up and made sure everything fit appropriately. They walked us through the directions they would give us while rafting along with all safety info. Pablo was the guide for our raft and he made the experience fantastic. He was funny and very knowledgeable. Giving us info on wildlife we saw in between big rapids. We stopped partway down the river for a water and snack break. The rapids were great and Pablo handled them like the pro he is. Once we finished rafting we went back to the office for a delicious lunch and then they took us back to our hotels. They also had a photographer kayaking along with us with the option to purchase pictures after our experience. I would 100% recommend this tour!
