Exhilarating rafting excursion! Phenomenal experience rafting thru the mountains and jungle of Costa Rica. Our tandem guides of Luis and Mangany were so good! Luis was on our raft guiding us and keeping us safe and having the time of our lives, while mangany was out ahead of us on a kayak getting us pictures of the adventure. Would highly highly recommend if you’re looking for some thrills! Our best excursion in 3 different trips to Costa Rica, will most certainly do it again when we return!

Highlight of our trip!!

This rafting trip was absolutely incredible! My family has been on several rafting adventures in different countries, and this was by far the most thrilling and fun experience we’ve ever had! The rapids were exhilarating—easily the best we’ve encountered—so be ready to get soaked and have a blast. Our guide, Flippy, was fantastic! He was not only hilarious but also incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating insights about Costa Rica throughout the trip. The entire experience was well-organized, and the energy from the group made it even more unforgettable. The photos they took captured every exciting moment, and the price was very reasonable—definitely worth it to relive the adventure! Without a doubt, the next time we visit Costa Rica, we’ll be booking this tour again. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable rafting experience!

This was by far our best...

Anthony was awesome! We had a great time rafting. Anthony made sure we understood what we needed to do to stay safe and in control of the raft. Highly recommended.

Heart-stopping rapids

Thrilling trip down the rapids with several heart-stopping drops but no capsizing thanks to Jason’s expert direction, phew! We also loved the stop for cliff diving! A great deal with lunch included. An all-around amazing day.

Extreme puts it lightly!

Let me start by saying we had a wonderful time. Our guides were true professionals and kept us all alive! It’s was super dangerous. It’s actually running at a level V and if your family isn’t into near death Rafting I suggest a different part of the river. El Chorro is extreme! We survived it, it was a rush to say the least and our guides worked so hard and collaborated as a team 💯. I can only say I am grateful to have been with such a well prepared team. P.S. it was beautiful
