Chorro Rafting Private Trip From Manuel Antonio

This was absolutely the most fun thing we did on our trip. Gregory rafted along side of us for safety, and did an excellent job explaining about our surroundings from the time they picked us up at our condo to the time we put our rafts in the water. Landon also rafted ahead of us, and got some truly great photos. Flippy, our captain, took his time describing things to us as we rafted down the river, and expertly told us when to paddle all while guiding us down. Ian, in the office, was very responsive before we arrived and set up a delicious meal for us after we were done, and when they got unexpectedly busy later in the day, personally came to pick us up from lunch and take us back to our condo. We had the best time, and can't wait to come back and do it again!

10/10 great experience. Highly recommend!

Wow. The best rafting experience I have ever had. Incredible location full of beauty and wildlife. Exciting runs full of rapids back to back to back. Gregory was an incredibly talented guide, full of information and humor and kept us out of trouble. Landon was great getting things ready and cleaned up and laughing with us as well. Eric was great helping us get organized and out the door quickly. He was full of information to and from the river and did a great job taking pictures. Really they were an outstanding team. Capi also kept us laughing in the van.

The H2O Adventure Rafting is a must do while in Costa Rica. The office team and guides were extremely professional and did a great job making this a memorable experience. I will definitely be doing the trip with friends and family that come to visit in the future.

I booked the El Chorro River Private Rafting Trip from H2O adventures. It was awesome! I booked through their WhatsApp and they were very accommodating. I had a large group (18 people) and I only booked about 2 days in advance. Ian handled all the communication via WhatsApp in advance of the trip and he was really good at communicating. He allowed me different options for lunch (we chose the sandwich buffet by the river instead of restaurant) and he let me select specific snacks and beverages (Imperial original) specific for our group. Arrival and checkin was easy. There was about a 25 min ride form the office to the launch point. We were out of vans and geared up quickly before a short walk down to the river. I advise to block up well before you leave. They advised we leave everything (sunglasses, phones (even in waterproof pouches) in the vans unless we were alright losing them. Probably the right call. At the river we had a quick instruction/safety meeting and we were off. I have done some much more mellow rapids in Oregon… this was way more fun. The first few class IV and V rapids were a little hairy. My raft got flipped on the biggest one, but I was so impressed with how quickly the guides jumped into action. They had a raft of 3 guides that just scouted ahead to make sure we were safely back in the boat. It was really clear they were prepared and well staffed for a technical ride. The rest of the trip had more mellow rapids (still fun) and some of the best scenery surrounding you that you can imagine. Just a canyon of lush jungle paradise and clear blue water. We ended with our sandwiches and cervezas by the river. I recommend that option if it’s available. It let us enjoy the natural surroundings and compare our rafting stories while eating and joking with our guides. Shout out to Landon, Eric and Gregory. You guys were great. Thank you Leo for taking such good care of us. We finished with a quick trip back. I ordered the photos and videos they took. That was nice because I didn’t have to worry about losing my phone. The cost for photos was reasonable, although it’s always more fun to take your own candid or nature shots… but the risk you lose your phone is always there. Highly recommend this trip and company. Pura Vida.

I really can’t say enough positive things about Lando and Eric - our guides - and the trip as a whole. We left from a location close to the Chorro eco lodge which is also a phenomenal place to stay. Starting the tour involved a fun and tricky descent down a trail and then leaping into the river! We skipped the first rapid as the conditions were unsafe. The remainder of the rapids were thrilling and so much fun! We also stopped to cliff jump along the way. Our family of four with a 12 and 14 year old loved every second!!! You’d definitely want to be comfortable in water as it’s an intense ride but there wasn’t a second we felt unsafe. The guides are pros! Very reasonable price as well. Enjoy!!!!!

Unbelievably amazing experience with our guide Mario!! Pretty gnarly rapids but felt completely safe thanks to our amazing guide Mario! Highly recommended!!

I had never been rafting before and so was a little nervous but - WOW, what a great time! As much as it was exhilarating, I felt safe and totally taken care of by the very experienced guides. Overall every moment of the experience was A++ and I couldn't recommend H20 Adventures more!

Amazing crew. We felt safe and well looked after at all times. Had a lovely stop with homemade salsa chips and local fruit. An overall amazing outing

This was my first time white water rafting and I had no idea what to expect. I was very nervous going in. And I was right to be. It’s a serious river! Not for the faint of heart! But luckily the team at H2O Adventures is super conscious of everyone’s safety and needs! Our rafting guide was Tavo and he’s amazing!! He knew every single spot that we needed to get down or paddle more. And I may have been terrified during the first half of the river, but without him I think I would have fallen out! After the team stopped all our rafts over to the side for a snack, the rest of the river was smooth and much less stressful. I had a ton of fun on that part! I’m excited to bring my family back in the future!
