Fun experience - Carlos Rosales was a great instructor. Very informative and made the class a lot of fun! My friend fell out of the raft when we reached heavy rapids and Carlos acted very quickly to get him back into the raft safely. Would definitely recommend.

Great value- super fun! - Our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 children ages 9 and 11), recently did the Balsa II/III whitewater rafting tour with Arenal Rafting. We absolutely loved the entire experience. Very well run organization. Our transportation arrived promptly and our driver Christian was accompanied by Oso, who spent time on the drive trying to find wildlife for us to spot. He found us our first sloths and a big iguana! Our rafting guide was Carlos R. and he was excellent! So fun and knowledgeable. We loved him. The fruit and lunch was excellent and we thought this tour was a great value. We decided to purchase the pictures they took, and received the link to the pictures right away. We highly recommend this excursion when in the Arenal area! My kids immediately asked to do it again! 😆
