Don’t book this. They...
Don’t book this. They never showed up to get us. Terrible communication. Booked 2 weeks in advance and communicated with Viator to make sure that we were on the local operators list. But if u do enjoy getting up at 5:30 am and waiting outside for over an hour and then getting compensated absolutely nothing then this is the tour for you!

The BEST time!!!
We had the BEST time white water rafting. One of our favorite experiences while in Costa Rica. Andres was our guide and he was so fun and lively. We came from Puerto Viejo, the company picked us up directly from our hotel. It was about an hour and a half drive to the rafting place. We enjoyed breakfast and they had lockers to place our belongings. The rafting was so fun, be prepared to get absolutely soaked and to fully participate. It’s not a relaxing cruise down a river, you have to physically participate. It was an all day activity and at the end we were also fed lunch and able to change into a fresh pair of clothes. They then gave us a ride back to our hotel. We would definitely recommend this activity!!!

We’re thrilled to hear that white water rafting was one of your favorite experiences in Costa Rica. It’s great to know Andrés made the trip even more fun and memorable with his energy and guidance—he’ll be very happy to hear your kind words.
We’re also glad you enjoyed the full experience, from the hotel pickup and breakfast to the exciting time on the river and lunch afterward. You’re absolutely right—rafting is an adventure, and it’s all about getting involved and having fun!
Thank you as well for recommending the tour.

Do it! Have a blast!
This was one of the most fun adventures ever! Our guide, Louise, was amazing! We had so much fun! It included breakfast & lunch. They picked us up from my hotel in San José and dropped me off at my new hotel in La Fortuna. I am 64, my husband 66. I have never been white water rafting, although he has been numerous times even though it had been 25+ years. Some of the rapids were a level 4, but honestly it was beyond fun!
事業者からの返答
Thanks for sharing your experience — sounds like an unforgettable day on the river. Louise will be thrilled to hear your kind words. We’re glad the team made you feel comfortable from start to finish, especially with those level-4 rapids in the mix. It’s great to hear the transfers and meals worked smoothly for your travel plans too.
We appreciate you choosing this adventure with us, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime you’re in Costa Rica.

Fantastic two day trip down the Pacuare River!
Our terrific guide, Fernando, has rafted this river for 20 years, so you can have utmost confidence in him and your ability to navigate class 3 and 4 rapids! DO the 2day trip if you can- lots of time to swim in waterfalls, eat lunch on the beach, hang out at the lovely (but Spartan-think camping) remote Pacuare River Lodge. He cooks pretty well too!
事業者からの返答
Thanks for sharing your thoughts — great to hear you enjoyed Pacuare and felt well taken care of.
Fernando is indeed solid — guides with that level of river time bring a lot of confidence to guests, especially on class III & IV.
Glad you took advantage of the waterfalls and that overnight lodge experience — the remote setting is usually the highlight for many.
We appreciate the honest detail about the lodge being rustic. that helps future travelers' book with the right expectations.

What a beautiful experience with Roberto!
What a fun filled day!!!!
I want to say that although the drive to the river is about 2.5 hours, it does not feel that long. It is a pretty easy drive.
The guides were all knowledgeable and friendly, but Roberto is something else! He made our trip unforgettable!!! Easy-going, funny, and so experienced on the water - he totally made our day!!!! He took care of everyone around him, whether on or off the boat!
These trips are truly made by guides like Roberto. We are so thankful that we got to spend a day with him!!! Here is to many many more! Pura vida!

Maravilhoso
Very fun! It's worth it!
The van picked us up at our hotel in Puerto Viejo and we traveled about 2 hours. Arriving there, they served a great breakfast. Soon afterwards we are taken to the river and one of the instructors was explaining the commands and safety instructions. Already in the river, the little start is a very easy part of practice, you will feel comfortable even if you have never done this activity. The first descents are exciting but as soon as you catch the way, the secret is to hold your feet tight in the kakaka va tennis boat for greater safety. The landscapes are stunning!!! The instructors all very good and fun, ah and also go 2 kayaks in case something happens. Finally they serve a well served lunch and the van takes us back to the hotels. Anyway, we love it!! I highly recommend!
