The only afternoon rafting tour in Arenal Volcano. If you are one of those people who sleeps late or want to take advantage of the morning for another activity, then this is the best rafting option for your family and friends. The Sarapiqui River is the perfect couple or family adventure, with fewer participants than the morning tour, giving a more private feeling. The rapids are perfect for first-time paddlers looking for a challenge or families interested in fun, set in the lowlands of the rain forest, you’ll get breathtaking views of tropical birds and lush jungle landscapes.
