We use Los Exploadores from Puerto Viejo de Talamanca. They pick you up from your hotel, feed you lunch, take you for a full day river rafting and drop you in San Jose at your hotel. I think it's the best way to get back and forth from La fortuna, Puerto Viejo de Talamnca, and San Jose. It's onlyy $99... More

The road there was very windy and traffic was especially heavy during our return. You could do it on your own if you wanted, but I honestly... More

It was my 1sr rafting experience and I had a blast! The nature is beautiful, water is warm, guides are knowledgeable. Ever since I go white water rafting everywhere.

Still one of the best days of my life. Waterfalls, rainforest, rafting between waterfalls falling from sheer cliffs while howler monkeys...howl. It's not 'safe' but it's not incredibly... More
