Highly recommend the Class 3-4 raffting - Super fun! We did the Class III-IV rafting trip through the rain forest. Beautiful scenery with waterfalls along side the river, colorful rainforest vegetation and the birds. We had the most delicious local pineapple and watermelon at break. The tour and river guides are professional, courteous and experienced. I have rafted the Zambezi, New, Gauley, Colorado rivers and many more. This stands up as one of my best rafting experiences. Note: it was rainy season and the river was fast. A shout out to Daniel and Mariano!

Spectacular Jungle Family Adventure - We had an amazing jungle adventure day from start to finish! I highly recommend. We started with Ziplines. The guides were professional and very helpful. We took 7 ziplines and got to see La Fortuna waterfall as we soared in the jungle. *warning heights* The first top line is very high and long, so not good if you are scared of heights. The second part of the day was rafting the Balsa River. The start of the river had tons of super fun, big rapids to soak and thrill us. There were swim breaks and a yummy fruit snack riverside. Some of the best rafting and family friendly adventure. Our kids were 12,14,15 and the loved it! Photo private for rafting was super reasonable ($40 USD) and they got tons of awesome shots!

Pura Vida!! - Zip lining over La Fortuna Waterfall was breathtaking! Our raft guide, Antonio, has over 20 years of experience and it shows. It was such a blast and he made my daughter’s first rafting experience a positive one. This entire excursion was a highlight of our trip. I would definitely recommend.

Ask for Sasi - Our guide Sasi was fantastic! We felt safe and had a great run down the river. Fun crew to ride the river with. We bought a day package from Arenal Mundo Aventura that included zip lining. Highly recommend it.

Great experience! - My kids, age 13, 16 and I had a great time on the trip! Very professional, friendly and fun. Comfortable bus. Gustavo educated us about the country during the ride to the rafting site.and we learned a lot. Out guide on the river, Camilo, was great! Made sure to keep the kids and me safe and IN the boat. The river was exciting but not too scary. Lots of thrills and got plenty wet. Camilo was from Chile but very knowledgeable about Costa Rica and fun to talk to. They had a cooler of drinks at the end of the rafting, had an Imperial which hit the spot, then on to a great lunch. My daughter said it was the best chicken she has ever had and she eats chicken everywhere we go. We all had a great day? Tour ran on time and no issues at all with the scheduling.
