Whitewater Rafting Savegre Class II-III plus Waterfall Manuel Antonio

Stay26470355237, Jul 2026

Wonderful rafting outing with the crew from Amigos del Rio!

We had a wonderful rafting outing with Little Juan, Elmer, Kenneth, and Ulisses. Started off with a delicious lunch served at Amigos del Rio in Manuel Antonio, then a drive through beautiful countryside to the Savegre. Juan shared tons of information about local plant and animal life along the way and the history of the communities we passed through. We stopped for coffee at a lovely family's house on the way as well. The rafting was a lot of fun - definitely zesty in spots but totally manageable for a family with kids. Our guide, Elmer, helped us feel safe while going through and we had an absolute blast. We saw lots of amazing birds, including tiger and blue herons, and vultures as well. Highly recommend!

Full day of fun

We started our day out with zip lining ( canopy as they say in CostaRica) over a beautiful area in the rain forest. Then rode 🐎 horses. Then went river tubing which was the "best"..... so fun! Then ended the day at the hot springs. It was a long day but full of fun. I enjoyed the canopy but the tubing was fabulous! Would highly rate this Excursion and recommend!

Great family fun!

We had an absolutely wonderful time. I went with my family that consisted of elderly (3 people in 70s) and 2 kids ( 5 and 8 year old). The team took care of everyone and made sure everyone was safe. My 5 yo did not want to go initially but they made her feel safe and by the end she even went on 4 lines by herself. The food in the end was delicious also. Plus they took pics that you can purchase which were top quality. The lines were very long and fun! Overall amazing! Everyone was super nice!

Tortuga Island Tour with Costa Cat

Jessica_R, Jul 2026

Beach Day at Tortuga Island

Fun day with excellent service and great food. We boarded CostaCat promptly at 715 and we're immediately served fresh fruit, carrot muffins, & coffee. The ride over to tortuga island was lovely and we saw a couple of sea turtles and a few dolphins. (The ride made at least 1 passenger ill, so be prepared.) The staff had chairs & umbrellas arranged for each group (ie. 4 chairs specifically for our family of 3), ready for arrival. We were immediately served drinks and invited to enjoy the beach & ocean. There are scheduled activities: snorkeling at 9:30, lunch at 11:15, banana boat ride &/or short hike to a pretty viewpoint after lunch. Lunch was excellent and seemed unlimited. Throughout the day the staff are constantly circulating to check on guests, collect used cups, offer assistance, bring the drinks of your choice. For snorkeling, people are provided with a life vest, goggle/mask, & snorkel, then we board small boats to go to a platform near some rocky islands. As soon as you jump in, you see an assortment of fish and have 20-30 minutes to snorkel around the rocky area. Staff are watching carefully and work to keep everyone a safe distance from the rocks and from the path of any other boats. I really enjoyed this part of the day and saw a nice variety of fish & urchins. The water is turquoise, the beach is light sand mixed with rocks and coral fragments and the waves a fun to play in. The "hike" was very short to a lovely viewpoint. It was too hot in the afternoon to want to go on the full loop. We saw javelina, a deer, iguanas, and crabs on the island as well as a sea turtle from the overlook. The day was very enjoyable and my teen daughter says it was her favorite day of our vacation.

On the waves almost immediately!

The actual surfing was a great experience. My teenage daughter and her friend did the lessons and had an amazing time. The guides were knowledgable and helped them feel comfortable and able to get up on the waves. My only negative is they messaged us to arrive 30 minutes late due to the conditions, but still finished at the original time, so our two hour lesson was only an hour and a half. Overall we would do it again!

Manuel Antonio Canopy Tour – Longest Twin Zip Line in Central America

Abby_J, Jul 2026

Unforgettable morning in the jungle

What an incredible experience! Our family’s first time ziplining was with Santuario, and it ended up being one of the highlights of our trip to Costa Rica.From the moment they picked us up, the staff was friendly, welcoming, and kept us entertained during the drive. Once we arrived, everything was extremely well organized. They gave a thorough safety briefing, got everyone fitted with harnesses, and kept the group moving, so there was very little waiting between platforms. As someone who is terrified of heights, I really appreciated that. The first zipline was the hardest for me, but after that I was able to relax and enjoy every minute.The course was incredible. Walking through the rainforest from platform to platform felt like exploring a real-life treehouse, and the 10 ziplines offered breathtaking views.The guides were outstanding, professional, encouraging, and always focused on safety while making the experience fun. They were wonderful with the children in our group, and we loved seeing even the youngest adventurers confidently complete the course with their help.The fresh fruit, water breaks, and delicious traditional Costa Rican lunch, with great vegetarian options, were the perfect finishing touches.This was an unforgettable experience, and we would absolutely do it again. If you’re visiting Costa Rica, Santuario is a must. We felt safe, challenged ourselves, made amazing memories, and can’t recommend this experience enough!

Fun family day

Such a fun trip. Romain was a fantastic paddle guide and provided so much history about Costa Rica. Josué, our photographer captured fabulous photos, and he and Romain put together the most beautiful (and delicious) lunch for us. Despite the low water level we still had plenty of exciting moments…and to top it off the photos were free! Most tours charge for photos in addition to the tour fee. Highly recommend the rafting tour and Costa Rica Explorer!

An awesome excursion !

This was such a fun and memorable experience. Booked last minute and it was amazing and highlight of my trip. Although one waterfall was canceled it was replaced with a coffee and chocolate making experience and it was still by far the best experience overall. Daphne and Miguel were great tour guides and took good care of us. So glad I found this excursion it is truly worth it!
