Whitewater Rafting Naranjo River from Manuel Antonio Class III-IV
Description
The Naranjo River is a Class III/IV half day challenge for more experienced paddlers. The Naranjo River drops steeply from the coastal mountain range above Quepos through a beautiful jungle gorge, and takes you on a wild ride to sea level, passing nearby farmlands and palm plantations. The river banks are overgrown with jungle and the canyon walls meet the water at 90 degree angles. The whitewater, jungle, canyon, and sky, make for an unforgettable day. For the advanced rafter, this is an exciting and refreshing ride through the Naranjo canyon. As well, if you are a first time paddler who welcomes a challenge and is looking for the excitement of big waves, hydraulics and stunning scenery, then this whitewater rafting trip is for you! It includes a snack, lunch, bilingual guides, safety kayak, photographer (pictures available for purchase), and A/C transportation to and from hotels or houses in Manuel Antonio or Quepos.

We had such a good time white water rafting with Moises. We had 2 people in our group who had never rafted before and he did very good with directing and keeping everyone safe.
Had a phenomenal trip in their excellent guides
Unbelievable adventure. The rafting guide was SO knowledgeable about so many things. As we walked down the path to river, he told us all about the trees and plants on the path, as well as the history of so many places! The rafting was fantastic, the food was great and the staff was so good.
AMAZING!!! Nicolas was an AWESOME boat captain! Rapids were awesome. It was a total experience for all. Definitely recommend!
Awesome, wonderful time. Recommend
I went on this rafting adventure with 7 other girlfriends. We are all about 40 years old, and most had never rafted before. We had a fabulous time!!! It was beautiful, and the level was an appropriate mix of easy and exciting. The guides were wonderful! Ours was Xesus - very fun and funny. Highly highly recommend!
