The best of the best - Esteban and his guide crew did an amazing job taking care of us on our two day adventure. This was my favorite activity for the whole month I spent in Costa Rica. All my kids had a great time, the food they cooked for us was excellent and the accommodations were unmatched. The views are beautiful and the rapids keep the adventure exciting!

Loved rafting the Pacuare with Whitewater Excitement - We loved our 3 days rafting with Excitement on the Pacuare River. The guides were a blast on the water and off. They had fun even while fixing the great meals for us, which made it fun for the rest of us. Nikki (sp?) was great guiding us on hikes, to waterfalls, and on how to swim the rapids - and cliff jumping Ethan brought the smiles and humor to our rafting time on top of skillfully navigating us through rapids and shallow stretches. We recommend Excitement for your rafting adventure!

Great way to experience the natural beauty of Costa Rica - We had a friend in CR recommend rafting the Pacuare. It was a terrific way to start our CR trip. The first day is pretty mild which was great to get used to paddling. We stayed that night at the Rios Lodge. Our room had an amazing room in a building overlooking the River. Bathroom en suite. Not super luxe but very clean and nice. The food was solid and there is even a bar. We arrived at lunch and spent the afternoon swimming in a natural pool and doing a short walk around the property. Day 2 was more exhilarating - class 3 and 4. We aren't experienced rafters but felt completely safe with our guide Esteban who was amazing. He was knowledgeable, helpful and super skilled. We even watched how the crew (there were a few boats plus a safety kayak in our group) sprang into action when someone fell out of raft. All was well and it was great to see everyone knew exactly what to do. Highly recommend!

Five stars! - This is a great company! All of the guides were extremely friendly and helpful, from Gino who met us and drove us to the water to Kenneth who was our personal guide. Kenneth was an incredibly skilled oarsman. We have done lots of rafting and this man knew the river and his craft! He was so polite and informative, with a lovely smile and always ready to help. Mario guided our experienced kayaking friends and he too was lovely and an amazing in a kayak. The river is gorgeous with constantly changing scenery. The guides have great rapport between them. Go for it!
