Fun! - Fun experience! Our guides did a great job of keeping everyone safe on the river! We saw howler monkeys in the trees. If you book the 1 pm trip and want lunch before the trip - arrive early. If you don’t arrive early, you can still get your meal at the end of the trip. Lunch is really good! If you wear glasses to see, it would be good to have something to secure them. Taking anything with you (even in a dry bag) is not really useful. There were plenty of kids on this trip and all were kept safe. That said, I would not be comfortable taking a child on this trip. You will be disappointed if:
- You want to face forward for the entire trip.
- You want to stay with a person(s) during the trip.
- You want to stop to look at animals.
- If you are cold natured, and it rains, it might be too cold for you.

Awesome Adventure even with our little ones. - This tubing adventure was a perfect mix of exciting and not too scary. We went with our 7-year-old and even our 4-year-old and our guides couldn’t have been more accommodating. The helmet and life were a little big for our 4 year-old, but our guides put an extra life fest at the bottom of his tube so he would be more comfortable. On the way downstream our guide worked their butts off making sure everyone remained safe. They also took time to point out sloths and other wildlife on our float.
And lunch! A delicious and healthy meal was included, which all of us thoroughly enjoyed. One of the few notes I would give is they were not very forthcoming with information before hand but they were happy to answer any questions I had.

Adventure tubing that you will not want to miss out on! - You will not regret booking this tubing adventure! It is more like white water rafting with tubes, not just lazy floating. We had such an amazing time, definitely a top highlight of our time here in Costa Rica. The guides were friendly and made sure to keep everyone safe. We even got to see a few sloths that the guides pointed out along the way in the river.
If we had stayed another night, I think we would have done the tour again as it was just that good.
Enjoyed the lunch prior to the tour and the staff is just wonderful. Highly recommend!

An absolute blast! - The place is hard to find and the apps took us a few different places, so we were about 10 minutes late. The staff was so nice to us. They said, “pura vida” and let us have our delicious lunch. The rest of the group left and they came back to get us so it was just the three of us and the guide.
This is tubing on the “rapids”. It is not just a float down the river. Our guide Andy was exceptional and literally sacrificed his poor body to make sure we were safe.
The time on the river is thrilling and also beautiful and relaxing. Time on the river is about 40 minutes. We saw one sloth on the way.
Highly recommend this tour!

So glad we didn't cancel due to weather. - This was a mother/daughter vacation and Anthony and Andy provided a real good time. We were almost going to cancel; it was chilly and rainy...so glad we went. They made sure we were safe, understood the rules and were so fun and personable. The included lunch re-energized us after the tubing.

Exciting guided trip on the Rio Celeste - This is whitewater tubing - not lazy river tubing. And its great fun. A particularly good choice on a rainy day since you will get wet in the river. Lots of wildlife too.

Highly recommended! - We did the tubing as a couple, and it was the most exciting experience ever! The mix of fast and slow rapids had us laughing the entire time. Thanks to the guides, we felt safe every step of the way. It was so much fun—I can't wait to come back! At the end of the tour, they even offered us a delicious lunch. Highly recommended!

Exciting and fast - The guides were very friendly and worked very hard to ensure everyone was safe through the rapids. My husband’s tube flipped over, but they got to him instantly and made sure he was ok. It was definitely exciting and a beautiful environment. I think I would have appreciated a bit more ‘lazy float time’ between the rapids to enjoy the view, as we’ve had on rafting trips in the past, but the guides keep you moving and it all goes by fast. Lunch before the tour was great, and jumping off the bridge at the end of the tour was fun.
