Rafting along the Balza River with Super Mario - With my family (children aged 12) we did the rafting tour along the Rio Balsa. They did the full walk level III-II, I joined in the second section doing only level II. We had a great time! Mario guide very attentive to everything, that the boys had their helmets, lifeguards, etc. Super fun and take care of everything. When I fell into the water, I climbed in a second and when my husband and daughter fell, so did I. Very nice experience. Highly recommended.

Great River Rafting Experience in Balsa - Best experience well worth the money spent. Fransisco, our bus guide was very informative and entertained us through the 45 mins bus journey. Our rafting guide Super Mario made sure we were safe and also enjoyed the ride. We had a wonderful experience rafting as a family across the beautiful river Basa with amazing views. We also spotted 2 sloths as a bonus. The refreshing fruit break was well planned and executed by the guides team. Got some great pictures in different spots by the talented photographers who kayaked on single boats and reached the rocks before us to capture our best moments. The tour ended with a yummy traditional Costa Rican lunch. Highly recommend the tour and the company.
Go Super Mario!!! Thank you

Incredible Experience for the Entire Family - Arriving at the river there was a fair amount of apprehension within our family group, the white water was pretty hectic and there were a lot of boats heading out. Our guides, Estiven and Carlos, were incredibly reassuring and their confidence and clarity made sure we enjoyed every minute of the trip. We had both a 7 year old and a 70 year old in our boat and everyone felt safe, enjoyed a thrilling ride and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this trip to anyone thinking about booking! Thank you Carlos.

Best white rafting ever - Amazing white water rafting under guidance of experienced tour guides Mario & Francesco. The river was great and we had a lot of fun. The mixture of the river and jungle views were spectaculair, great memories. Thanks for keeping us safe and nice lunch. This was really the best of our Holidays white water rafting ever done. Thank you Mario, Francesco and Maquique Team!
