Highlights
You book Jonatan — not a company. He has 24 years on the Pacuare River, personally plans your trip, and past guests have stayed at his house. That’s the Turrialtours difference. The Pacuare is National Geographic-ranked among the world’s top whitewater rivers. It runs through a pristine jungle canyon and the protected territory of the Cabécar people — Costa Rica’s largest indigenous community. No dam, no crowds, no highway views. Private 4x4 pickup — never a bus. Maximum 18 guests. World Rafting Federation-licensed guides, CPR/First Aid certified, fully insured. Everything included: transport, equipment, buffet lunch (+ breakfast from San José). No hidden costs, no surprises. Our guests say it best: “friends, not clients.”

About San José
San José is Costa Rica's capital in the high Central Valley, a working city of theatres, markets and museums, close to volcanoes and coffee farms.
San José sits in a mountain-ringed valley at about 1,100 metres, where the climate is mild year-round. The neoclassical National Theatre, opened in 1897, is the city's finest building, and the Pre-Columbian Gold Museum and the Jade Museum show the artistry of ancient peoples. The Central Market, a maze of food stalls, coffee sellers and craft shops, keeps its old rhythm, and Barrio Amón and Barrio Escalante have grand houses and newer cafés.
Top-ranked sights in San José: Arenal Volcano National Park, San Jose Central Market (Mercado Central), National Theater (Teatro Nacional).
