A must do! - We had a great afternoon rafting, the Sarapiqui with our guide Daniel. He kept us safe and was very knowledgeable about the river. We will forever enjoy the rafting photos that were taken by their professional. We appreciate you all!

Unforgettable experience - One of the most thrilling days we’ve had in Costa Rica. The zip lining was probably the most intense but the views were incredible and we’re both glad we did it. Afterwards we went rafting with Wave rafting. Daniel was very friendly and kind throughout the short bus ride to the river. My husband and I rafted with Jonathan who just made the whole experience even more fun. Definitely book if you want to experience adventure and create unforgettable memories!

Great family fun - Our guide Ephraim was awesome. The bus ride to the river was very comfortable. We loved the fruit snack part way through and the lunch at the end. A fantastic day.

BEST excursion in La Fortuna! - Our experience with this tour was incredible! We were in a group of 6 for the zip lining which was a perfect size. Our guides for zip lining, Eric and Eduardo, were great and so good at helping us get the most out of our zip lining experience by explaining the optimal positions to be in and making adjustments for each person’s weight. The wave tour company really took care of everything, transporting us to and from the zip lining and providing us with a break to change, rest, and eat snacks (provided) before heading out to go rafting. Rafting was an unbelievable experience! Our guide Sassy was so great, and even though it was my first time rafting I never felt uncomfortable because he did such a good job at guiding us through the rapids. He is an expert on the wildlife and much of the ecological history of the area, and being able to learn as we were rafting really enhanced the experience. He let us practice our Spanish as well, and encouraged picking up new words related to the activity. His many years of experience as a rafting guide clearly show in his ability to engage the group while delivering clear instructions and keeping us safe. Absolutely an unforgettable part of our trip! The lunch afterward was fantastic as well (probably one of the best casado style meals we had on the trip). This tour is absolutely worth the money and was probably the best thing we decided to do in costa rica.

Well put together fill day excursion with excellent guides. - We started the day zip lining with Eric and Eduardo who were both clearly very experienced and enjoyed their jobs. They added to the fun of the zip lining while giving us tips on how to enjoy it more. A sprinkling of jokes from both guides was also fun. For the water rafting portion, our guide’s name was Sassy. Sassy was an excellent guide. He gave clear directions and made good conversation and jokes. He has been guiding rafting adventures for 14 years and the experience showed. The trip included a free Casado lunch at a farm that produced most of the ingredients themselves. The lunch was the tastiest Casado we’ve had in Costa Rica. They also gave a demonstration of sugar cane juice extraction while filling us in on the history of it and the production of guaro. I highly recommend doing the tour combo. It was seamless and high value.

I had blast! - The zip ling over the waterfalls was breath taking. The second part of my excursion white water rafting was soo much fun, not as scary as I thought it would be. In my group it was all our first time and we were lucky to have Andy. He was wonderful, he showed us couple of Sloth, talked to us about the river. I would do this over again.

Great experience! - The zip lines were fun. There were different kinds: long, short, fast etc. There was a quick video lesson in the beginning on how to safely zip line which was helpful. It was our first time white water rafting and Daniel did a great job explaining everything. We had so much fun! We enjoyed the snacks (watermelon & pineapple) and the lunch.
