コスタリカのバルサ川ホワイトウォーターラフティングクラス2/3

Our experience was awesome. Girlfriend was very nervous about the trip. She loved it. Joseph was an excellent guide. Fun, engaging and overall awesome to be with. Wilbur, our bus driver, was fantastic. It’s class 2/3 white water at its best. Great for newbies, veterans for an easy day or families. A great alternative way to enjoy CR. Pura Vida baby!!!!!!!!

Booked this tour last minute and it was so much fun! Absolutely amazing experience all the way through. Great guides, customer service and a delicious lunch at the end. Tom was the best guide and made us feel safe the whole time while also giving us some thrills.

Marcelo/Joseph are hands down the best guides! This was the highlight of our trip, and we will definitely be doing this again if we ever travel back. Great experience and the provided lunch afterwards is amazing.

One of the best experiences in La Fortuna!! This tour definitely worth the money. Our guide Rasta Fox was amazing and made my first rafting experience safe, fun and thrilling. Highly recommended

We booked the afternoon tour for our family with two children early in the rainy season, and the company had to cancel for safety with heavy rain. They called us in good time, and rebooked for the next morning gladly. This was probably the highlight of our three week vacation. Ivan, our raft guide, was amazing. Our 11 and 6 year old tried so hard to make us go again...and might become rafting guides. Gracias Ivan! And special shout out to Jefferson and his questionable jokes!

Balsa River White Water Rafting with Arenal Rafting. This was our favorite activity but we would maybe try a different company. The beginning and end were quite chaotic. We were on a small packed bus where myself and my 6ft son had to sit on top of a wheel well so we had our knees in our chest for over an hour which wasn’t very fun or comfortable. We did get to stop halfway for a restroom and snack break so at least we could stretch our legs. Our guide Carlos wasn’t the best, he spent the trip scaring our kids about not being “princess paddlers” and was supposed to tell us who are guides at the river would be but didn’t. Instead we were dropped at the river into a mass of people with guides tossing life jackets and herding us down to the boats. I lost sight of my kids and since I had no idea who our guide was or where to go it was a bit unnerving. Finally found my family and met our river guide Edwin who was AWESOME. He put my daughter and I in the back near him and honestly made the experience a perfect 10. We saw tons of wildlife and the fruit break was great. After the rafting they took us back to the main office and fed us lunch. My husband and I got the beef option and it was good, our kids got the pork chop and it was terrible-dry, over cooked hockey puck. While it wasn’t a 5 star experience, it’s one my kids are still talking about a week later.

Definitely a must do when you're in the area! It was a great experience. William and Wilbert picked us up at our hotel and took us to their main building where we got the rest of our group. We headed to the Balsa River and the staff quickly got us set up with lifejackets, helmets and paddles. The staff was efficient and very friendly. William ended up being our guide and we had a blast. We were up for a challenge and he didn't disappoint. He was so knowledgeable about the area, animals, plants, and history. Pineapple will never taste as good as Costa Rican pineapple. We were sad to have the trip come to an end but we were met by a crew with water and just as quickly as we got ready, they were able to get us set to head back. The towels were perfect to keep us dry. We also made a stop at a small market to buy snacks and souvenirs. Once we returned to the main building the staff served us lunch which was delicious. While eating we talked with others and looked at our pictures. Then it was time to head back to our hotel. We would recommend You William, Wilbert and all the staff to anyone looking for a great experience rafting.

Guides are very skilled and make the experience very fun and enjoyable. Would definitely recommend, very easy to learn. You could even be lucky to see some wild animals.

Really fun with just the right amount of rapids. Victor and Axel provided a great time for everyone. Some things to know - ride out is 35+ minutes. We went in June so expected some rain and got some - but the temps were great and you don't mind. Time on the water is awesome and the guides tailor the experience. Fruit stop is delicious. Lunch on return is quality and generous. Highly recommend and would return!

Everything about this experience was amazing. From the moment we were picked up at our hotel when we were dropped back off, everything ran smoothly and there was great communication. Our guide, Carlos R, went over and above to make the experience exceptional for my family. We loved eating fruit on the banks of the river halfway through the trip, and the lunch at the end was delicious. After 10 days in Costa Rica and several different experiences in excursion, we all agree that the river rafting was our favorite. The photos that we were able to purchase at the end were an added bonus.
