Fun Rafting Trip - Great rafting trip. Pick up from our place was easy & the van getting to the river had ac. Once on the river I felt safe & had a fun time. It was cool to stop at a waterfall along the way.

Toucans in the mist - It takes a village to orchestrate a proper whitewater raft trip! We are so thankful to have been with Ulysses and Crew. They appeared to have a great brotherhood with attention to detail.
To help others have a good trip
Use the bathroom in Silencio.
If you are older with poor balance get in the biggest raft available.

Great time and outfit for rapids with a fam with a smaller child. - Great experience and time with the Amigos Del Rio. Day started with a trek up to the river trail start but not before stopping at a small village "restaurant" for some coffee and excellent empandadas . Ride was on longer side (2 hrs) but worth the extra distance. Jesus was an excellent guide and the stop at the waterfall was a nice bonus I was not expecting. Log day but safe and fun.

We had a great time!! - Our tour guide, Jesus, was extremely funny and charismatic. The rafting was extremely enjoyable and we were taught a lot about the local customs and ecosystems of Manuel Antonio. The sightseeing was gorgeous as well. Photos were tad bit too expensive though. However, definitely an experience I would recommend to anyone!!

Well Done 👍 Amingos - The owner Ramirez, Jesus, Hosea all did a wonderful job. Jesus was with our boat and he made it so enjoyable and comfortable for our family❤️😊. Hosea made our travel to the starting place so funny and enjoyable. Even the lunch afterwards was very delicious and authentic! We highly recommend Amingos and team ❤️ Kudos to the entire team and staff.

Amigos Del Rio was incredible - We have never tried river rafting before our trip to Costa Rica, but our experience with Amigos Del Rio was incredible! They picked us up at our hotel the morning of the trip, provided a breakfast and delicious lunch upon our return but also prioritized safety while ensuring everyone had a blast. Midway through our adventure, we stopped to hike a short distance to a stunning waterfall. Our guide, Jesus, was fantastic, and made the experience so much fun. We definitely recommend Amigos Del Rio for an unforgettable rafting experience!
