In the grandest canyon of the Balsa River, experience the excitement, serenity, joy and enchanting beauty of the Balsa River as it transforms this divine chasm and those who venture down it.
Upon arrival at the river, we will gear you up with a life jacket, helmet, and paddle and then brief you with a full safety orientation talk. Then it will be time to take off down the rapids! Expert river guides and safety kayakers will accompany you as you pass through exciting rapids and admire the beauty of nature in calmer sections of the river.
As with every trip, there will be one stop for locally grown, organic fruits and another stop for an authentic Costa Rican Organic lunch. You’ll also learn about the growing, harvesting, and production of chocolate, medicinal plants, fruits, and sugar cane.
Please note that towels are included with this trip.

Excellent experience with Rodrigo and his service was amazing
I worked with Rodrigo before my trip to Costa Rica and while I was there. He was excellent and coordinated my rafting trip, which was absolutely amazing. He offered me many suggestions and also checked in on me throughout the week. He is a stand out guy that provided amazing service and knowledge

Pura Vida! 🤘🏼
This was such an amazing tour! The guides explained everything so clearly and I felt so safe. They also shared all of their knowledge of the animals and plants along the river. We saw sloths, spoon bills, iguanas and other birds. It was so much fun going down the rapids and really exhilarating! I can’t wait to do it again! After the rapids we went to have lunch at a beautiful farm. Once we finished our tour guide Jimmy took us around the farm and explained all of the plants that were there and introduced us to the animals. I’m not sure if I liked the rapids or the animals more 😂 we tasted different fruit and even juiced a sugar cane. Then they gave us a shot to finish of the experience and send us home happy. I definitely recommend this tour. Everyone was so nice and welcoming. As a solo traveler I felt so at home ❤️❤️ Thank you all! I will be back 🥰
