Rafting Pacuare River One Day from Turrialba

Excellent tour. Great river, fun guide. A great experience all around.

A must-do: rafting on the Pacuare River is magnificent. The setting, the activity... truly a favorite. The activity is very well organized, the guides are friendly, efficient, and not intrusive. We had a dream day. I highly recommend it. Small things to know: bring sunscreen and water shoes.

It was our first time and we enjoyed it very much, we felt very safe and everyone is very professional and kind. Thank you for an unforgettable experience

We had an incredible time rafting the Pacuare River this August. Safety was flawless from start to finish, which allowed us to fully enjoy the rush of the rapids and even try out kayaking along the way. Spotting two toucans on the riverbanks made it even more special. Our guide, Ariel, was outstanding: highly skilled, incredibly professional, and great at keeping a fun atmosphere throughout. A huge shoutout to Daniel as well for capturing fantastic photos of us in action! Big thanks to Manfred, who organized everything seamlessly for us. Having a delicious meal and a fresh shower right at the end was the perfect wrap-up to the trip. Unforgettable memories, 100% recommended!

Thank you for the super exciting day and the unique experience! That was my first rafting adventure and I was thrilled.

We had our best rafting trip out of the dozen we have done in recent years!! A great team and top-notch organization! More than 3 hours on the water with class 2 to 4 rapids in exceptional landscapes! I recommend it!!

Had a really great time! I showed up last minute and was able to join a group going the next day. The rapids have a good mix of classes and even two class 4 sections. The trip was a little over 3 hours including the stop for lunch/snack. If I were to go again I think I would book the overnight excursion as the jungle is so pretty and it would cut the trip to an hour and a half each day which seems more pleasant as at the end of the 3 hours I was pretty tired. Though the excellent dinner they served when we got back to the main base helped recover my strength

We were picked up at the Wagelia Hotel at short notice (we should have gone to Wagelia Dominica Hotel - don’t make the same mistake as us, we thought they were the same place!) and luckily the hotelier called Adrenalina for us and they came quickly without querying it, thank goodness. Very good of them. Adrenalina explained on phone that we couldn’t do the Pacuare river trip (level 3-4) as water too high but that we could do the Peyibaye river trip which was shorter, 10k and level 2-3. Alonsso was our guide on the bus and Arielle our guide in the boat. They were both very friendly and welcoming, English speaking and clear with instructions. The Peyibaye was actually better for us as altho we’ve done rafting in the past we’re still really beginners and it was quite challenging in parts in the rapids but brilliant fun (more so than usual as river high). 2 hours was a perfect amount of time, 4 (Pacuare river) would prob have been too much for us but great for those wanting more of a challenge. We stopped for fruit and waited at intervals along the river for others in our party to catch up with us, great banter between the guides. After the rafting we got taken to the main meeting place and had a delicious Costa Rican lunch, cassoda with chicken.

The guides are super friendly (I especially recommend Peluche!). And the descent is super fun. There were rapids all along the route.

Incredible! The guides are super nice and funny, which is really pleasant! Peluche was the best guide! The trip down the Pacuare River is simply great and athletic! I recommend it 100%!
