Highlight of Costa Rica trip! - This was my first time rafting and it was so much fun! The river was beautiful and had continuous rapids, which made it a fun and exciting experience. Gerald and Oso were our guides and were funny, engaging, and made sure we had a great time. Definitely recommend and look forward to doing it again!

Incredible experience! - My family had the time of their lives! This outfit was awesome. Our guide Pato made sure we had the very best time. I cannot thank him enough for sharing this lifelong memory with us. This was BY FAR, the very best white water rafting experience we have ever been on. The excitement, fun, wildlife and the food was all SOOOO amazing! This is definitely the outfit you want to sign up with for your rafting adventure if you're in the Arenal/La Fortuna area.

Super fun intro to rafting - We had a lot of fun on this rafting tour! We had 2 adults and 3 kids. Our raft guide was very helpful as this was the first time rafting for most of us. We lost our paddles twice and even fell out of the raft. Our guide was able to get us straightened out very quickly. There are several spots along the river where you can get out of the raft and swim. There is also a place where you can jump off a small cliff (10-12 feet). About halfway, they stop on a small sand bar and provided fresh fruit. The rapids were mostly mild, but the kids loved them. They especially liked "riding bull". There are a number of guides in kayaks that tag along to help with safety. Afterwards, they provide you with a nice lunch and there is a place to change your clothes. You will get very wet, so it's best not to bring your devices. They will take pictures along the way which you can purchase for a reasonable price. Our pictures turned out great :)

If you try water rafting do it with Arenal Rafting - We're from Panama and Los Angeles, The attention of Arenal Raftin was one of the best we received in La Fortuna, Carlos González and Julio are the best guides, very cheerful, friendly and fun. The service, punctuality, food (even for my vegan friends), equipment, safety and treatment of the whole team was amazing. This experience was pure life!

Rafting…pure life! - It was my first time rafting. Alejandro Turri was a fantastic guide, he gives you confidence and security. He gave understandable explanations for everyone. Also, together with the driver Diego, they made the trip enjoyable, stopping to see toucans, monkeys, etc. During the activity we saw many birds and stopped to have some delicious fruit. The natural juice and the empanada at the end of the journey made us regain our strength after the activity. I would repeat without a doubt!

Recommended 120% - Great experience with our guides Diego and Alejandro (Turri). The rafting activity, being us novices, was amazing, but it also stopped us on several occasions to show us monkeys, toucans, cormorants, ospreys and even some kingfishers. I recommend it 120%

Best rafting experience! - Alejandro T. was such a welcoming and knowledgeable guide. My daughter was nervous but ended up loving the experience. We saw monkeys and Toucan’s on the way to the river head. Prepare for an all day excursion and bring an extra pair of shoes!
