Epic Adventure

What an incredible adventure! This was the first rafting trip for my 10 and 15 year old. They were very nervous. The guides were encouraging and so responsible and competent. We felt safe the entire time which allowed us to have such a blast. This tour was epic. Highly recommend this team, the tour, and the company in general. We will be back for more adventure next year!!

Magical memories! Nature at its most thrilling!

Our family of four — two teens and two adults — had a magical experience rafting the Chorrro with our experienced and kind guides. The river provided a thrilling challenge and we were surrounded by nature in all its majesty. This was the best whitewater rafting we have ever experienced, and our guides enhanced the experience by teaching us about nature in the country they love. The excursion ended with a delicious meal they whipped up on the riverside. Enthusiastically recommend to anyone who feels physically and mentally up to the challenge. You won’t regret it!

Amazing guides, unforgettable memories

Our trip down the river was enjoyable and unforgettable. The owners and guides were all super professional, knowledgeable (and honestly just really nice guys to spend the day with 🙏). It also wasn’t just a rafting expedition, Jake taught us about the flora and fauna of the region, which was a super cool and unexpected part of the experience. His expertise and passion ignited a very fun educational element to the day. If you’re willing to learn he’s willing to share. He even went as far as showing us first hand how nasty the ants are on the Bullhorn Acacia. 😂 Jeudy, Jacob, and crew: we appreciate the great time and memories. Can’t wait to come back

Perfect Experience on the Chorro

Just returned from a week in Costa Rica with my wife, son (13) and daughter (10). Rafting with CR Explorer Tours was everyone's favorite experience. These guys are start to finish pros that invite you into their community for the day. We'll be back. TOUR Started with Kendall putting us on the right river for what we were looking for, The Chorro. Team energy was very high from the start as they guided us to parking spot. The CR Explorer Team instantly had me and my family laughing getting us pumped for the big drops and the beautiful canyon. The ride up was filled with laughter as we got to hear about Jeudy's new son, Jake's botany expertise and Josue's lifetime in Dominical. We saw monkeys on the drive up before we got an expert tour of the local plant life by Jake, while the crew prepped the boats. Learning about Costa Rica's biodiversity from Jake was an unexpected hightlight that was consistent throughout the trip. It always kept the kids entertained during transition times and will be a forever memory. The river was incredible, Jeudy having captained the Costa Rica national team kept us safe and ran perfect lines throughout the trip. High energy celebrations after massive drops left my family smiling and chatting on our way back to Seattle. We got to cliff jump and swim in some really magical places along the Chorro as well. BACK STORY We were staying in the rainforest in Baru, my kids insisted. When choosing an excursion, my daughter did some research and decided she wanted to go white water rafting with CR Explorer Tours. She read the reviews and saw they were local to dominical. My wife and I were skeptical, due to it being the dry season. Low flow. We ended up getting recommended by Kendall to due the Chorro River to give us some. Special thanks to Kenith for getting the vehicle from the drop to pickup! Hope to see you all soon.

**Wow, thank you for such an incredible and detailed review! 🌊🚣‍♂️💙** It means so much to hear that rafting the Chorro River was the highlight of your family's week in Costa Rica. Knowing that it stood out among all the amazing experiences available here is truly the highest compliment we could receive. We're especially happy that Kendall was able to help match your family with the perfect river for the conditions and the type of adventure you were looking for. The Chorro is a special place, and we're thrilled it delivered the excitement, scenery, and unforgettable memories your family was hoping for. We'll be sure to share your kind words with Jeudy, Jake, Josue, and Kenith. Each member of our team brings something unique to the experience, and it's wonderful to hear that their stories, knowledge, energy, and professionalism made such a lasting impression. Jake will be especially excited to know that the botanical lessons became one of your family's favorite memories! We love sharing Costa Rica's incredible biodiversity and culture alongside the adventure itself. It’s also great to hear that your daughter’s research paid off! We know choosing an activity during the dry season can come with some uncertainty, so we're delighted that the Chorro exceeded expectations and gave your family the perfect mix of adrenaline, natural beauty, swimming spots, cliff jumps, and unforgettable whitewater. Thank you for trusting us with your family adventure and for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback. Guests like you remind us why we love what we do. We already look forward to welcoming your family back to Dominical for another day of laughter, rapids, wildlife, and adventure. Until then, give our regards to Seattle and keep those Chorro memories alive! 🇨🇷🤙🌴💦 **Pura Vida, and we'll see you on the river again soon!**
