Family loved this trip - Tour was very organised. High water due to lots of rain. Family all enjoyed it! Guides Fernando and Andes went out of their way to keep us all safe.

Adventures! - Fernando was amazing ! I went with family, and not only did he show us sloths along the route, he did a lot of running around making sure we each had a great time rafting when we got stuck on the tubes. He showed us a mini cliff diving and even sulfur that he allowed us to put on our skin! Had a great time on this tour! Definitely recommend.

Fun time with Fernando! - Had a great time floating the river! Fernando was a fun guide and navigated us through the small rapids. He pointed out some unique poisonous frogs and a sloth up in a tree. Stopped for a cool rope swing into the river along the way.

Amazing tubing adventure - Tubing the rapids of Río Celeste was one of the best experiences we had in Costa Rica! Our guide Fernando was attentive to safety, making sure everyone had a comfortable and smooth ride. He also added extra excitement by spinning our tubes! During the tour, Fernando spotted an adorable sloth, and we spent time observing it, taking photos. We also had a lovely break in a peaceful part of the river where we could swim. After taking multiple tours in Costa Rica, I can confidently say this one offered the most value and enjoyment. Fernando is an outstanding guide with a true love for nature and a very warm, welcoming vibe. I highly recommend this tour!

A perfect activity! - Great activities with action but never a sense of danger. The 3 guides always made sure everyone was happy and had fun! As much the kids as the parents loved it! All employees, even the driver of the van were perfect!

Fun for whole family - We went with our 4 year old and 9 year old. It was a fun and relaxing morning. The staff works hard, Fernando helped our family moving along the rapids. He was fun and kind and spoke good english. The guide helping the other family did not speak english, but did a good job anyway. Would recommend if you're not looking for something very strenuous for yourself. My husband said he felt like a fat tourist sitting in the donut, letting the staff do all the work haha. We got fruits and towels at the end. Would recommend
