White Water Rafting Class II and III
Description
White Water Rafting Class II & III!! A fun combination of whitewater thrills and areas where the water is docile enough to jump in and go for a swim. This is perfect for a family adventure and for beginners. Wildlife abound in this section of the Balsa so keep an eye out for sloths, iguanas, howler monkeys and a vast array of tropical birds. However this trip is not all about relaxation. The rolling, tumbling class 2-3 rapids will be enough to bring laughter and excitement to the whole family. The trip will be guided by our awesome and safe guides that could make a puddle of mud fun. As with every trip, there will be one stop for locally grown, organic fruits and another stop for an authentic Costa Rican lunch, you’ll also learn about the growing, harvesting, production of chocolate, medical plants, fruits and sugar cane.

Great experience! I was very nervous, but the guides, Elvis and Carlos, were so professional with a calm sense of humor, it made all of us on our boat have a good time!
As a family of 4 with older teens we thoroughly enjoyed the rafting. It was just the right amount of thrill versus fun and our guide's enthusiasm was infectious. We spent 1.5 hours on the water. We enjoyed freshly prepared fruit once we "landed" and then a lunch back at the tour office location followed by a short tour of their large garden /crops and some animals. Only reason for 4 stars was we spent an hour driving to multiple pick up locations waiting for people to board etc, before leaving La Fortuna, meaning the journey out took over 2 hours. Overall I'd recommend
I went rafting with Kevin and I recommend it 100%. The only downside is that it feels very short. As an extra, they show you the farm and you observe the coffee, banana, pineapple plantations... they also have goats, a cow, a donkey, and pigs. If I return, I would not hesitate to do it again. Pura vida
The trip was really well organised. We went by bus to the river, about an hour long, stopping enroute for bathroom and souvenir shop. All of the guides were great fun. Really experienced river guides so we felt very safe. It was a fantastic activity! We returned to the base after rafting and had a delicious lunch and tour of the farm. We all thoroughly enjoyed our adventure with Descents!
We had an amazing experience with Albus. Loved the rapids and lunch was exceptional.
I loved the experience, Ronald our guide was very attentive, and he explained the reviews of the towns, animals, plants, birds, and everything necessary to better understand Fortuna. We are very happy and grateful. I would recommend it a thousand times.
We had an amazing time white water rafting! The scenery was beautiful, the rapids were exciting, and the whole experience was well organized from start to finish. Our guide, Kevin, was absolutely awesome. He was knowledgeable, funny, and made us feel safe and confident the entire trip. His instructions were clear, and he kept the group entertained while making sure everyone had a great time. Kevin truly made the experience unforgettable. We would definitely come back and highly recommend this rafting company.
Warner was my guide for this booking. Very knowledgeable and attentive. The guy had us rowing like Olympians after just a few instructions lol. I had lots of fun, none of us fell out the raft and we had 2 kids onboard. I didn't feel unsafe at all. We also spotted a good amount of wildlife during the calmer spots in the river, iguanas, sloths, and birds. This was the best part of my 5 day trip for sure!
Excellent experience, 100% recommended, everything was very well taken care of, Earner was a very professional guide, I highly recommend him!!
Fun trip, water was pretty big from the mornings dam release up river. Saw various animals during the rafting, took a couple of dips in the river
