This experience was so much fun. Simple but thoroughly enjoyable! Christian was an enthusiastic and friendly guide. He kept us safe and prevented us from hitting any rocks. I would absolutely do this again and again if I was visiting the area.

This was the best part of our trip in the La Fortuna area. We got lucky and it was the 2 of us guided by Cristian. He did a great job giving us a relaxing and fun tour in our tubes. While We had some time to swim in an area, Cristian did some cool flips for us and helped us swing from a rope.

Cristian is our tour guide. He was so incredible. He was very patient and supportive to wait for us when we wanted to stay longer to swim although he felt cold while sitting and waiting for us.
Milton set up the tour and he let us have longer ride than other tours. At the end of the tour, we had fresh delicious fruit and water!!!!
The tour was full of fun and laughs. We experienced the best support from the tour guide as he always cared about our feelings, always checked on us to ensure that we felt good, and did their best so that we had the best and unforgetable memory. We felt so lucky to choose their service.
As a new business, they did a very good job! I hope that more and more people know about their business and experience the best service as we luckily had.

Luis and the team made our experience amazing. We were a family traveling with two teens. Everyone loved the experience. From the beautiful water to the swing to the expert guide. We had a wonderful time and would do it again in a heartbeat!

This is a must do experience! Out guide Alex was super fun and made this trip memorable!! The blue water was sensational! We saw sloths, frogs and bats and had a blast on the rapids! We had wonderful fruit too!!

We had a great time. Staff went out of their way to provide good experience. We went with our girs who are 11 and 13. They also had fun.

The tour was absolutely FUN. The guides are young, helpful, safety conscious and delightful. The 8 of us are ages 30 - 70 and we all had a great time. It had rained heavily the day before but the water was still pristine. This company started one year ago and I predict they will continue to do great things!

¡Pura vida!

Do this if it's the only thing you do in Costa Rica - we had such a wonderful river tubing experience with Lindberg. I was travelling with two elderly people with some mobility issues and they found the experience really thrilling. Love that it's a family owned enterprise run by young, passionate people. Highly recommend!

We had such an incredible experience tubing down the rio celeste. The color of the rover was beautiful. We saw a huge sloth, howler monkeys, and even some bats at the end. They had towels for us and fresh fruit and water at the end. This was our favorite thing that we did in Arenal. Don't hesitate to book this experience!

This is by far THE best excursion of our trip to Costa Rica! The brothers Milton and Landberg were funny and excellent guides on this PRIVATE tubing adventure down the beautiful blue Rio Celeste river. We didn't expect there would be little rapids! We laughed continuously! It was so much fun! We got to jump and swim in the river along the way. We rubbed volcanic mud on our faces to absorb minerals and take 10 years of our appearance 😂
At the end, we were given delicious fresh fruits and water. It truly was a perfect experience! Their customer service is superb!

What a ride! Milton and Cristian made sure we had the float of a lifetime! Super great communication prior to our float. Cristian pointed out different wildlife including butterfly's, birds and explained the minerals in the mud/clay that we put on our face as a mask! Cristina was a super fun guide and made sure we had a great time. We stopped at a rest spot to swing from a rope swing and mini-cliff jump and Cristina participated with us. Thank you again so much for this awesome experience!!! Pura Vida!

Highly recommend this company for the Rio Celeste tubing adventure.. Christian and Limber who are cousins and Kimberly were so welcoming from the start. They took the time to show us extra things like baby alligators, history of the area and explained the color of the river. Everyone spoke English and Spanish. The equipment was new and clean. Safety procedures were explained. On the water we never felt unsafe or out of control. We stopped twice for a rope swing and a mud facial. They both took photos of us capturing memories so we could enjoy the sights. At the end we were treated to local fruits. Such an amazing experience. We can’t wait to come back for the other tours they offer.
