Rafting Pacuare River from La Fortuna w/ shuttle to Puerto Viejo or San Jose
Description
The Exclusive Costa Rica Whitewater and Wildlife Rafting Class III Experience begins with a pick up at your hotel or Airbnb of preference, then we start a short drive thru La Fortuna town, until we reach to a magestic outdoor viewing point where sloths can be found in their natural habitat. You will be able to spot two-toed, three-toed sloth, frogs, different species of birds then jump into a refreshing natural swimming hole. Afterwards, we drive for 45 minutes passing by four small towns: La Fortuna, El Tanque, Los Angeles and La Vega while our specialized guide will taught you about the different plantations that will be found along the road, to mention some: cassava, plantain, banana and pineapple,etc. Once arrived, you will be provided with a lifejacket, paddle, helmet and the safety instructions. Then you will be ready to paddle down 10 kilometers of adrenaline, rolling rapids with names like “Congo Loco” and “Rock around the Croc!” Great for all SLOTH'S LOVERS.

To anyone who is considering experiencing this, MAKE SURE that you add this to your itinerary! This was one of the most amazingly beautiful and unforgettable experiences that will stay with me forever. From the booking team to the pick up driver, to the food service and guides and river team, everyone was super friendly, hospitable and guaranteed to make you laugh to make your entire experience memorable and wanting to come back. I wound up canceling my other plans and booking for a second day after experiencing the first day. Rafting down the Pacuare River is a must! The views are that of paradise. Tell your friends and family and put this on your bucket list. Thank you so much to the team at Calypso Adventures! PURA VIDA!
This tour was great. our guide was Roberto and he was very skilled and very funny. The breakfast was great. The fruit snack, pineapple, was great. The lunch was awesome. The rapids were fun and none of our party felt unsafe. If you like rafting you can't go wrong! Absolute blast!
Thank you for your review, Pur vida!
Such an amazing experience, you’ve got to do it. Got to see so many amazing animals, scenery’s beautiful and the rafting’s so much fun. The Staff are amazing at every step. Don’t let being solo stop you from doing it, it’s still an amazing experience on your own even if you’ve not white water rafted before. Breakfast was delicious and filling, lunch was huge and the shuttle to my next destination was a smooth process. I could not recommend Calypso Adventures more. (Plus, I got to see a sloth upclose)
Thank you for letting us know about your experience, we are thrilled to know that you hada blast on our Rafting trip. Pura vida!
I originally booked the trip the week before. However, due to road conditions, it would take longer than expected to arrive, causing the rafting to be shorter. I was given the option to rebook so I can fully enjoy the rafting experience without issue. Great customer service!!!! The rafting was great, and for a newbie like me, very fun. Eduardo made sure we were all prepared and explained what we had to do. We got to see lots of birds and the scenery was beautiful. 10 out 10 would recommend.
