Overview
What you will be doing
Sarapiquí River
After driving less than one hour through rural areas, plantations, and towns, you will reach the entry point of the Sarapiquí River, where we'll have the gear fitting and a safety briefing.
Rafting
Our experienced guides, with a well-synchronised team, will lead the rafting experience together. A second guide will go ahead on a kayak, inspecting each rapid in advance and informing the guide about changes or preventions or simply to assist
Lunch
After going through some rapids we stop to swim in a pool and eat some tropical fruits. As the river descends, the rapids get calmer, offering chances to observe some wildlife such as river birds, sloths, monkeys, toucans, or frogs. Upon returning from the river we stop at our restaurant La Finquita where we will have a delicious Costa Rican lunch.
