• 510/10 Experience with Yorleny & Gio! * Amazing Tour, Amazing Guides, Amazing Memories!

  We had such an amazing experience on this tour! Yorleny and Gio truly made the entire day special. Yorleny was incredible from beginning to end. During the drive, she stayed engaged with us and shared so much interesting history about Costa Rica, the volcanoes, the areas we were passing through, and the nature around us. She stayed with us throughout the entire adventure, helped take pictures, hyped us up, cracked jokes, and made everything so much more fun. She was also extremely thoughtful. We forgot to bring towels for tubing, and somehow she made sure we had towels waiting for us when we finished! They even made stops along the way just so we could take pictures and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Gio was an amazing driver. He drove us through rain, rough roads, and a long journey, and we felt completely safe and comfortable with him behind the wheel. We also felt very comfortable leaving our belongings in the vehicle with him. Both Yorleny and Gio were very mindful of us throughout the entire day, making sure we had opportunities to eat, drink, take bathroom breaks, and rest when needed. They were incredibly kind, sweet, patient, and welcoming. It was a long day and a big adventure, but they made it such a memorable experience. I would absolutely do this tour again. Yorleny and Gio are an amazing team, and I highly recommend them! 10/10 experience!

• 5Adventure-filled day!

  It’s a full day so bring some snacks and water bottles filled with water. Bring tips for the nature tour guide, the tubing guide and the all-day guide. The tubing can get rough if it has recently rained so the tubes should be clipped to at least one other. We went when it had been dry and my tube still flipped. If it hadn’t been for frebasio who tubed with our party, who knows the river backwards and forwards, I could have gotten badly hurt. He and Allen, our all-day guide, were wonderful. We saw several animals and native trees/plants, the gorgeous waterfall and a very fun time tubing the river with many exciting rapids!

• 5Carlos the man!

  This trip was amazing for our family. From the beginning Carols and Alfredo were great! Lunch was amazing, I highly recommend the fish!! Tubing was great but the rapids and speed were more than we were expecting. A thrilling and fun adventure. Don’t wear any glasses because if you fall off your tub the river will most likely take them. Highly recommend this trip!
