An awesome trip down the Tenorio - We had an amazing day on the Tenorio and mostly thanks to Lalo (our guide) who is not only a great whitewater guide but one of life's big characters too. We spent the afternoon enjoying the river and laughing at all the priceless entertainment. These folks are your best option for the Tenorio river and make sure to ask for LaLo as your guide

1000/10 would recommend; so much fun! - I have never been rafting, but they made it very easy to learn and super fun. Our guide, Jason, was incredible! He was playful, funny, and made sure everyone was having a good time. He also effortlessly rescued a friend from the water after she fell in, so if anyone worries on that front, you’ll be well taken care of. Overall, I’d say this has been one of the best, funniest experiences of my life. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend as an activity while in Costa Rica!

Very fun way to stay cool! - Very organized, clean and well maintained equipment. All the staff were friendly and professional. Our guide Sam was fun and made us feel safe. There are some cool rapids especially the drop at the end. Prepare to get wet! The restaurant at the end was good food and again spotlessly clean. Highly recommend.

Fun and Excitement on Rio Tenorio - We had an awesome time on our rafting tour. Sergio was our guide and he made sure we had fun -- lots of laughs and excitement. We were comfortable the whole time and appreciated being asked, "Do you want the easy path or the hard path?" when there was a choice through the bigger rapids. We even saw a monkey!

Wow!!!!!! - Allan was our guide! He was the best! We did not tip over once! It was an amazing experience, floating down the river and hitting 2,3 and four level rapids! Allan took the time to show us white face monkeys, birds and snakes!!! We then had an amazing lunch back at the restaurant — an incredible experience!!!!!!!! 12/10

Great fun, great rivers and wildlife. - Family of 5 (2 adults and 3 kids 11,8,8) Rendez vous at a restaurant (lunch is included when you get back) the. Transfer via minibus (informations on the way about the activity and also about the landscape and the the region : we learned a great deal) after that you take place in the back of a truck (With comfortable seats as the 20 min drive on a dirt road is an adventure in itself... Special mention toi the OMG bridge) after this it's gear distribution and security briefing. Then people are divided in boats (a guide +4pax maximum). The family was split up but it was no problem. The guides are very skilled and they can basically do the whole trip without you but it's fun row on their command. Guides are also knowledgeable about wildlife encountered on the way (iguanas, motmot birds, white face and howling monkeys ..) The river is nice and the rapids are fun and accessible for a first rafting expérience. Our 8yo kids just sat in the boat and enjoyed (we chose not too give them a paddle.). My wife was a first timer and stressed out and alone in the raft with 8yo kid but Léo her river guide was awesome, very caring and reassuring and didn't make it môre emotional that it need to be (I, myself did go Overboard (was fun) but if know the guides pretty much can avoid it if you ask them to play it cool. ) We had a great time with Roberto, Léo and Oscar. We recommend this activity!

Had a great time. Felipe... - Had a great time. Felipe our guide was excellent. The river was a combination of really good rapids and quiet sections allowing to us see abundant wildlife and the beautiful surrounding forest. Lunch at the end was a really pleasant surprise. I highly recommend this tour.
