Amazing staff especially Jason at the river tubing! - If you're a fan of tubing, this is definitely the place to visit! I went tubing with my family, and I was initially very nervous about the experience. I almost decided not to get on the tube, but thankfully, Jason, one of the guides, made all the difference. He connected his tube to mine, guiding me safely down the river and making sure I felt comfortable the whole time. His care and attention to safety were evident, and he truly made the experience enjoyable. He also ensured I reconnected with my family at the end of the ride. Jason was not only incredibly professional but also kind and approachable. The entire staff was equally helpful, skilled, and dedicated to making sure everyone had a great time.

An Action-Packed Day of Adventure and Relaxation! - One of the best experiences of my lifetime! The day was packed with activities, and each one was unforgettable. We started with horse riding, which was such a relaxing and peaceful way to tour through nature. It was a great way to ease into the adventure. Next was river tubing, and it quickly became my favorite part of the day! My adrenaline was pumping the entire time, and the staff was there to help if anyone got stuck. The safety measures were excellent, which made it even more enjoyable. Lunch was delicious and gave us the energy we needed for zip lining. The zip lines were such a thrill and definitely adrenaline-inducing! The staff was always there to assist, making it feel safe and fun. We ended the day with a mud bath and a soak in the warm water, which was the perfect way to relax and unwind after all the excitement. Overall, it was an incredible experience. In just one day, you can do so much, and the staff are absolute professionals who know exactly what they’re doing (plus, they’re really funny too!). If you’re into adventure, I highly recommend this!

A death defying day! - Let me start off by saying we had an amazing time! The staff were great and we enjoyed everything. But, these rapids…. We were a group of 4 fit people from Colorado. When they told us that the rapids were class 3 and 4 they weren’t wrong. Water was high that day indeed. But we carried on, looking around our group we had a group of young to old, fit to not. I figured we’d be just fine. The water was freezing, you’re in an inner tube with limited ability to maneuver. No paddle. These rapids are more suited for an intermediate on a kayak. Absolutely insane that they are sending people down these in tubes. The website says children of age 8+ but I would strongly advise no children ever. We came out without major injuries but we did have the paramedics arrive for other people in the group. One guy dislocated his shoulder, another slammed his face against a rock when he flipped out, a few people were stuck in the toe of the rapids and almost drown. Including a college swimmer in our group. Gashes on face, feet and lower body plagued our group. The guides were doing the best, which was incredibly hard work, and they did a great job, to rescue and manage the carnage that happened that day. But… it was beautiful on that river. As I tried to stop shaking uncontrollably from the cold water, I was able to enjoy the scenes in one of the 3-4 very short chill pools that followed after I feared for my life. After the adrenaline wore off, we had a great lunch followed by amazing zip lining and relaxed in a beautiful hotspring. Crazy day, I would recommend the rapids for those who are very fit and have water experience. It is not a chill ride, you will likely come out with a renewed taste for life, bruises and a gash or two. If you choose to do the rapids, I would recommend a long sleeve shirt or swim suit to help avoid chafing as you grip those strings on the intertube and also provide a little more warmth. Godspeed friends.

Safety and entertainment - Exceptional assembly and organization. Very friendly monitors and acceptable buffet food. Meal time a little bit just because of the number of people driving and after eating you have zipline activity with your belly full.

Zip lining and white water rapids had great scenery, but rapids were a bit alarming - Fun adventure-filled day with spectacular scenery and a good lunch. Reading other reviews, I would agree that the horse back ride was a bit unremarkable and short and the hot pools were good; the highlights were the zip lining and whitewater rafting. There were not that many tourists when we went, so crowds were not an issue — ratio of guides to tourists was high, probably 1:2, so lots of help guiding rafts and zip lining. Zip lining in canyon had spectacular views, as did rafting. However, the day we rafted the rapids were rough and a bit alarming. I fell off at one point and went repeatedly under water which was scary, though a guide dove in immediately and held onto my life vest and lead me ashore. Another women fell out and ended up with the tube over her head which scared her so much she burst into tears at the prospect of the next set of rapids (she was escorted through the rest of the rapids). Bum repeatedly scraped rocks underneath. Unsurprisingly, from reading reviews, some people get hurt in these rapids. So, the rapids are fun as long as you don’t get hurt. The many guides are great and do their best to steer you safely, but there’s no guaranteeing you emerge unscathed. And if you simply become too frightened to continue, there’s no option but to continue. I definitely would not take a young child down those rapids. Having said that, the guides were excellent (positioned themselves against rocks to push riders away, closely monitored each tube, blew whistles loudly whenever anyone fell in — which happened a lot). So, rafting was very professionally done, ditto zip lining. Just be aware of the risks involved. If I ever returned, I’d do the zip lining again but skip the rafting.

An epic adventure - A truly epic adventure! From start to finish, this was one of the best planned and executed experiences we have ever had. The staff is exceptional, highly trained, and very attentive. The experiences themselves, from tubing to zip lining and repelling, were thrilling, and, exceeded our expectations. Lunch was terrific! Ending the day at the Hot Springs was the ideal therapeutic conclusion to an exhilarating day. This is truly one of the best values in Costa Rica

Horseback riding to the waterfall - Ridden with a Spanish guide in the jungle of Rincon Parc horse. The horses know the way, unfortunately the guide does not explain anything along the way. Nice to swim at the waterfall (very cold water). You don't have to bring towels, you get them from the guide.
