Know before you go

  • Tours run rain or shine. For reasons beyond our control we may change to a more suitable tour with equal or similar difficulty rating and adventure-appeal. We reserve the right to cancel due to unsafe conditions and will only run according to established company policies. Full refund is given if no tour is run.
  • Rafting, canyoneering, etc. involve some inherent risk and physical exertion, so you must be in good physical condition with no recent surgery, heart condition, pregnancy or injury. If you take medication and need it with you or have other medical concerns, please inform your guide.
  • The natural environment of Costa Rica is unpredictable -- filled with insects, snakes, crocodiles and a variety of other wildlife. In addition, landslides, falling rocks and sudden flash floods are possible and river levels vary often. We may not be held responsible for any of the above.

This was the absolute highlight of our trip to Costa Rica! The tour guides were hilarious and helpful and the rivers were the perfect amount of thrilling without being utterly terrifying. And we didn't fall in! Definitely pay for the picture package because those pictures are both awesome and hilarious. You get delicious fruit when you take your first break and a very tasty lunch when you get back to their staging area. We will absolutely be doing a tour with this company again!
