The first day on the water covers a long stretch of Class III rapids, offering a steady build of pace through forest-lined riverbanks, with time to take in the surroundings between sections. After the rafting section, the group arrives at a remote riverside lodge surrounded by dense rainforest, where lunch is served and the rest of the afternoon is kept flexible with optional guided walks, river fishing, or time to relax in the lodge’s natural setting. The second day starts with breakfast before heading back onto the river for a longer descent featuring more technical Class IV sections. The route includes multiple stops along the way, with a guided jungle hike and a riverside lunch break built into the journey. The final stretch continues through changing river scenery before finishing at a private riverside base, where guests can shower, change, and unwind before returning to San Jose in the late afternoon. 🌴 Why Choose Us This operator is recognised for delivering carefully planned, small-group journeys that focus on authentic outdoor experiences in Costa Rica’s most important natural areas.
