This was a fabulous day of adventure! Erick, our guide on the ATV tour was a lot of fun! We traveled through more water and mud than I had expected, but that added to the experience. Erick was patient with us and made us feel comfortable on the ATVs. White water rafting was equally great! Pablo (x2), our guides on the water were awesome. Additionally, the lunch exceeded expectations. It was an amazing meal at a beautiful open air restaurant. We experienced a thunderstorm while there. Overall, this was an amazing day! We were tired in the best way.

I did this tour with my husband and 17 year old son. From the moment Pablo picked us up it was a 5+ star adventure. We had the most amazing time! My son loved four wheeling through the mud and rivers. Erick was a fantastic tour guide and so knowledgeable about the area. We four wheeled, saw howler monkeys, took a dip in the river and continued four wheeling. Afterward Minor picked us up and drove us to our rafting adventure. Minor was great, he provided us with cold waters, snacks and towels. There Adrian and Jeffery took us on a thrilling ride down the river. We encountered many class 2-3 rapids. We also saw many birds and howler monkeys, that Adrian and Jeffery pointed out along the way. Midway through we ate some tasty watermelon and pineapple. After the journey we ended with a delicious typical Costa Rican lunch with a gorgeous view of the river. I highly recommend this tour! Thank you to our tour guides, Pablo, Erick, Minor, Adrian, and Jeffery!

What an incredible experience! This was the perfect combination of adventure and natural beauty. Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie or someone who just loves the outdoors, this is an unforgettable way to explore the countryside.
Our guides were fantastic—attentive to safety while making sure we had an absolute blast. On the ATV excursion, our guide even captured some great moments for us using my phone, which was a nice touch.
For the white water rafting, bringing our own phones wasn’t recommended, but that wasn’t a problem. Christian, one of the guides, was not only a skilled kayaker and rafter but also an amazing photographer. He made sure we had great shots to remember the experience!
To top it all off, the lunch afterward was absolutely delicious. Highly recommend this adventure!

Booked this whitewater tour last minute and it was awesome! Our guide was Jilbain. He was funny and was friendly. My husband and I had a so much fun. We did level 2 & 3 rapids. The Sarapiqui River is beautiful!! We will definitely book again on our next trip.

When we arrived to do the tour they told us about the age restriction for driving the ATVs. There was no indication while booking the tour that the riders had to be 19. So when doubling the price should have gone down but the would not adjust for the cost difference. The ATV part was nice but not adventurous enough and the rapids were quite light.

This was an amazing excursion! Our guide did a wonderful job helping us navigate white water rafting for the first time. He took us to spots where we could get out of the raft to swim and even jump off a cliffed area into the water. The pictures they took were incredible but was best for the people in front of the raft. So I'd recommend switching seats when possible so everyone can get good shots. The fresh fruits and provided lunch was also delicious. I'd highly recommend this excursion.

It was pouring rain when we were supposed to be ATVing and we ask to cancel for safety and they would not ! We are all 65 and over and worried about safety but they didn’t care,

Ariel from outback Atv riding was very nice and Pablo from jacamar rafting was amazing. Had the greatest time I would highly recommend them.

We were a little skeptical about booking this tour due to lack of reviews, but we cannot recommend it enough! Carlos was very informative and engaging and we had a blast. We felt very safe the entire time we were rafting. Great for beginners!
The ATV was also well-ran and we were pleasantly surprised by how thought out the stops were. If it's cloudy, don't expect to see the volcano, but it is there! Lunch was at the end after ATVing and rafting and was delicious and filling. They also gave us the best and sweetest pineapples we've had, both after the ATVing and rafting. The tour fills out your day, but not super tiring, we got back around 3pm. Best excursion of our Costa Rica trip. Don’t hesitate, book it!!! Highly recommend!

Best tour we have ever done! ATV was a good time, definitely more for someone who wants a slower easy pace with beautiful views. Highlight was the white water rafting. It was our first time and the river is level 2/3. Our guide/new friend was Christian and he was the best. So knowledgeable, funny and really thought of everything to make the day special. We felt safe and relaxed the whole time! Thanks Christian!

Perfect day with an exhilarating and scenic tour on ATVs followed by just the right amount of rapids. Guides were attentive — took time to point out special wildlife and got great photos throughout the day. Lunch was delicious!

Has nothing to do with volcano. Fake advertisement. You done get to drive Atv in water. Whit water rafting has too many rocks, not steep slopes at all? Disappointing

Rafting was a new experience for us and we both really enjoyed it. It’s not as scary as we thought. We were instructed on how to steer and it went amazing

Very good both adventures. Not suitable for cardiacs 🤣. GAD we enjoy and leave safe. Our ATV (Arenal Adventures) guide, Junior, tremendous. In the rapids (Jacamar Tours) Gustavo, Pablo and the driver tremendous people tmbn, always watching over us and our safety. They act very quickly in unexpected situations, very professional and well prepared. If you’re adventurous, you’ll love it.”

Mi pareja y yo buscábamos añadir algo de aventura a nuestro viaje a Costa Rica y nos decantamos por este paquete. Creo que acertamos de pleno ya que pasamos un día increíble y lo pasamos genial haciendo tanto la ruta en quad como el rafting por el río Sarapiquí (primera vez para ambos y fue inolvidable). Durante el recorrido por el río pudimos disfrutar de los paisajes más increíbles de nuestro viaje, además de ver diversas espcies de animales como aves, monos, etc. Además, la comida que nos sirvieron fue deliciosa y preparada con mimo. Simplemente perfecto.
Mención especial a nuestros guías de rafting James y Miguel Jesús, y a nuestro conductor Jose, que se portaron genial con nosotros y nos permitieron disfrutar al máximo de la experiencia.
