Kayaking in Arenal lake - We had a really nice kayaking experience at Lake Arenal. Guide was great. We have a 4 y.o and 9 y.o and it felt safe. The lake was calm despite some rain during the day.

Adventure Time on the Lake - This was an amazing kayak tour with this company. Our tour guide and driver was the absolute best. Much love from the Trinidad and Tobago family. He was very knowledgeable and we got to learn a bit of the country's history. Our time on the lake was enjoyable. Will definitely recommend when visiting. Thanks much

Peaceful, Educational, and Beautiful - This activity was probably one of my overall favorites during my trip -- and I've gone horseback riding, hiking, whitewater rafting, and chocolate/coffee tasting! Our guide was extremely knowledgeable about the animals in the river and pointed out a ton of animals that I would have otherwise missed. This was my first time kayaking, but our guide made it easy with his instructions and his expert assessment of different situations. He also kept my phone dry and took pictures for us, since I wasn't confident in my ability to do so myself while kayaking. I would recommend this tour for anyone, don't miss out!

Amazing experience - We had a wonderful kayak trip down the Penas Blancas River with our tour guide Mey. Even though I have kayaked before I had the option to ride with our tour guide. He was great finding different birds for us and we even saw a Tayra. Mey told us that was rare. He took the time to really look for different animals. After, we stopped at a local place for juice and plantains. These were wonderful.

Enjoyable night river flow - Tour guide Mauricio was very knowledgeable and was enthusiastic about seeing all the animals. He went above and beyond to make sure we saw as many animals as possible. He had a great eye, we couldn’t believe the animals he was able to spot. Very relaxing river rafting at twilight. Cool experience with a very small group, beautiful sounds.

Los Angeles Chicas y un Adolecente (15 años) - We have had the best time in Costa Rica, Fortuna is exceptionally beautiful. The beautiful scenery is breathtaking, the Volcanos, wild life, nature, and greenery is beyond words. We had our favorite tour by Joseph, we kayaked all over the Arenal lake. He was extremely knowledgeable about the country and all the efforts towards sustainability. The information that he shared with us about our planet, animals, and the functions that we each play will forever have an impact in our lives for years to come. He took his time and allowed us to take breaks to rest. He was very sweet to check in. At the end he had snacks and drinks to help us replenish. I highly recommend that you request him, he’s an awesome instructor, you’ll learn a lot. Thank you Joseph for your time and dedication to the field of knowledge 🙌🏽 #PURAVIDA

Kayak and Bike Tour - We signed up for morning kayaking on the Penas Blanco River and biking around Lake Arenal in the afternoon. Joseph, Max and their driver picked us up at the hotel. They were warm and friendly. Stopped several times on the way to their facility to point out wildlife. Very knowledgeable about the area, wildlife and Costa Rica. Their English was excellent too. The kayak trip was very pleasant. They gave us thorough instructions and helped out with paddling. We felt very safe. Saw birds and monkeys along the river. Ended at a cafe/working farm for a typical Costa Rican snack, which was very tasty.
We had the same crew for afternoon biking. It was like biking with friends. The equipment was good, although my husband could have used a larger bike. Again we felt very safe even though we were riding on roads with no shoulder. Stopped for a snack along the way. Learned more about the area and had a great time!
Thanks Joseph and Max for a great day!

We had a great time. The... - We had a great time. The river was fast but our guide helped us learn to tuck in for animal and bird sittings. We used a tandem kayak so my wife could more easily take pictures.
