Super fun - a really great activity for friends/family looking for something active, challenging, but safe and structured!
All the guides for the rafting were great. The shuttle ride to the river went by a breeze with Yader spotting sloths and telling jokes. Our raft guide was Roberto and he did a great job making the activity as a whole feel very safe, secure and fun. At first we were a little worried as it was our first time rafting, but Roberto made sure we were ok and also enjoying ourselves. He was very good at spotting wildlife, stopping to show us poison dart frogs, toucans and sloths. One of the highlights was the fruit they served, which to date is the best pineapple we have had ever.
Hello, Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the entire experience, from the shuttle ride to the river adventure. We’re especially happy to hear that Yader kept the ride entertaining while spotting sloths along the way, and that Roberto helped you feel safe, comfortable, and confident during your first rafting experience. It’s great to know you also enjoyed discovering Costa Rica’s wildlife, from poison dart frogs and toucans to sloths! And we’re so happy the fresh pineapple was a highlight — we’ll gladly take the title of the best pineapple you’ve ever had! Thank you for choosing Arenal Rafting. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future! Pura vida!
Absolutely a blast!! One of the highlights of our Costa Rica trip. The guides were amazing and the Balsa river was a ton of fun! Our guide, Yader, was fantastic- lots of fun, ensured everyone felt safe, and checked in with our raft multiple times to determine how adventurous we wanted our ride to be (I’d recommend to say yes to all the extra adventure moments!)! One thing to know ahead of time- you can leave your valuables in the transportation van while you raft and the driver stays with the van, so it’s totally safe.

Great time, great crew , great river to raft on. Our guide Allen G. was great one the boat and gave us a marvelous tour of the river and creatures along the river while handling the raft. Would definitely reccomend.

As soon as I realized I would not be able to make the tour, which was 23h20 minutes before the tour, I contacted Arenal Rafting, to see if I could change my reservation to a different date. I was told to check with Viator as I’d booked through them. I did. Viator said I was within 24 hour cancellation window and they contacted Arenal Rafting for an exception. I didn’t receive any reply so I checked with Arenal Rafting. They said they did not receive any messages from Viator. I checked with Viator again and they said they did send a message to Arenal and the request for an exception was denied. I contacted Arenal again and advised what I found out. They started telling me that they have their policies and Viator has their policies and they don’t know what Viator’s polices are and that I should contact Viator. I explained again that Viator contacted them for an exception and asked them to confirm that they denied the request. They refused. They then sent me Arenal Rafting’s policy: “Date changes requested no later than 8:00 PM (Costa Rica local time) on the day before the scheduled tour may be processed without any penalty, subject to availability.” My request clearly fell within that window, 23h20 before to be exact. I explained that it was very simple, since I’d already paid, they could have said let’s touch base the night before I wanted to go, and if they have space available, they’d accommodate us since I already have a booking that I can’t change and their system doesn’t allow a reschedule. In response they sent me a cancellation policy, presumably of Viator: “No changes will be accepted if made less than 24 hours before the experience begins.” That’s a zero for customer service and zero for trustworthiness. Something as simple as this request, can be simply handled via a message: ‘ok since you already paid and can’t make a change on Viator, I’ll let you know if we have room the night before the tour and if we can accommodate you, we will, since you already paid.’ Done. It’s as simple and I’d be fine with that. Now they wasted my time trying to figure out for two hours how to contact Viator since I booked the tour on TripAdvisor. And a bunch of nonsense back and forth run around for a total of 4 hours. They gave themselves a bad name. Finally they admitted that my request was denied. They didn’t want to do it. It was as simple as don’t worry, we’ll figure it out. I’ve read reviews of other tour companies where people have gotten accommodated time and again for being late, showing up at the wrong date, etc. Thankfully I’ve never been late or missed a tour. But once in Sweden, for an aurora tour, the guide said it wasn’t looking promising that night and asked if we wanted to cancel. We agreed. He canceled our booking and refunded our money through Viator, hours before the tour. Everything is possible if someone is willing. Some companies have the capacity for excellent customer service and working outside the box, some don’t and can’t see past the dollar signs. A company’s greatness is not measured by how well they deliver a product when everything goes well, but also when there’s an issue and their customer service and care is put to the test.
Hello Mitra, Thank you for sharing your experience. We are sorry that the situation was frustrating and that the process took more time than expected. We would like to clarify an important point regarding this reservation. Your tour was booked and paid for through Viator, which acts as the booking intermediary. Arenal Rafting is the local operator responsible for providing the rafting experience, but we do not have direct access to modify, cancel, or refund reservations made through Viator. Any changes or cancellation requests must therefore be processed through the platform where the reservation was made, according to the terms and conditions of that booking. When you contacted us the day before the tour, our team repeatedly explained this procedure and directed you to Viator because they were the company that processed your payment and managed your reservation. We understand that this may have been frustrating, particularly when you were trying to find a solution at short notice. However, our agents were following the correct procedure and did not have the ability to make the requested change directly in the Viator reservation. We also want to clarify that the policy you referenced regarding changes before 8:00 PM Costa Rica time applies to reservations made directly with Arenal Rafting. Reservations made through third-party platforms are subject to the terms and conditions of the respective booking platform. In this case, Viator's cancellation and modification conditions applied to your reservation. Regarding your request for an exception, we always appreciate the opportunity to accommodate our guests whenever operationally and procedurally possible. However, an exception is not something we can guarantee, particularly when the reservation is managed and paid through a third-party platform. Our team could not independently promise a future date change or transfer of the booking without authorization from the booking provider. We are genuinely sorry that this experience left you feeling that our team was unwilling to help. That was never our intention. We understand your perspective and appreciate your feedback regarding communication. At the same time, we hope this clarification helps explain why our staff directed you back to Viator and why we were unable to make the requested change ourselves. We remain committed to providing our guests with a safe, professional, and enjoyable experience, as well as clear and honest communication throughout the booking process. Best Regards
This was an incredible experience. Our guide, Joseph, or Captain Joe, was truly the best! He made us feel like VIPs, he was very knowledgeable and hilarious. The rapids themselves were thrilling and despite this being the 5th time I’ve gone rafting, it was by far the best experience I had! I’d highly recommend if you’re looking for a fun adventure!

We’ll definitely share your kind words with him — we know he’ll be thrilled to hear them! Thank you for choosing Arenal Rafting and for recommending us to other adventure seekers. We hope your next visit to Costa Rica brings you back to the river with us! Pura vida!
Great trip, great guides, great company. It was an adventure from launch to finish. Nice little stop on the way to launch at a small gift shop with changing rooms. Got to see a sloth and parrots at the stop. Our guide Pato was amazing. Spotted iguanas, toucans, bats, a crane, a Herring, vultures and found us a poison dart frog. Absolutely a must do adventure. Great lunch at the conclusion.
Hello, Thank you so much for such a fantastic review! We’re thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the adventure from start to finish and got to experience so much of Costa Rica’s incredible wildlife along the way. It sounds like Pato was on a mission to make sure you didn’t miss a thing! From toucans and iguanas to bats, sloths, parrots, and even a poison dart frog, that’s quite a wildlife list for one rafting adventure. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with Pato and the rest of our team. We’re also happy you enjoyed the lunch at the end of the trip. Thank you for choosing Arenal Rafting and for recommending us! Pura vida!

Lovely staff, great day out and a real thrill
We had an AMAZING time on the tour. Our guide was Carlos and he made it so fun and safe. Our original tour got cancelled because the rain made the water levels unsafe and luckily the team was able to quickly rebook us and it worked perfectly. Was definitely the highlight of our time in La Fortuna. And the whole operation was ran like a well oiled machine. Would highly recommend. Our photos were phone and hilarious. Carlos was so kind and funny and catered to everyone’s wants and needs while on the river. I can’t say enough. Thank you to the whole crew David our driver , Carlos and even Alan another guide.
