Low intensity rafting filled with wildlife! - Great experience! Our guides were very helpful at spotting wildlife. We saw monkeys, basilisks, sloths, and a cayman among with many unique bird species. The river was very calm and my kids were able to play in the water at a stopping point. Also had a very delicious lunch and tour of their farm. Highly recommend and safe for kids and those not wanting intense physical activity.

Great family tour! - This was a great experience! The guides were very knowledgeable and engaging with everyone in our group. We had a large group with 5 children ranging in ages 3.5 to 8 yrs old and everyone had a really good time! Highly suggest this tour for anyone who is interested in nature, wildlife and Costa Rican agriculture.
