White Water Rafting Shared Experience

About this experience

In the grandest canyon of the Balsa River, experience the excitement, serenity, joy and enchanting beauty of the Balsa River as it transforms this divine chasm and those who venture down it.

Upon arrival at the river, we will gear you up with a life jacket, helmet, and paddle and then brief you with a full safety orientation talk. Then it will be time to take off down the rapids! Expert river guides and safety kayakers will accompany you as you pass through exciting rapids and admire the beauty of nature in calmer sections of the river.

As with every trip, there will be one stop for locally grown, organic fruits and another stop for an authentic Costa Rican Organic lunch. You’ll also learn about the growing, harvesting, and production of chocolate, medicinal plants, fruits, and sugar cane.

Please note that towels are included with this trip.
