Pacuare Rafting Tour

PACUARE RAFTING TOUR

River rafting down the powerful Pacuare river is one of the world’s best whitewater adventures.

The highlight of your visit to Costa Rica will be this amazing one-day excursion!

World-class whitewater and breathtaking scenery characterize the Pacuare River. We provide a one-day excursion that takes you through a remote rainforest, past breathtaking waterfalls and unique species, and down 19 miles (29 km) of Class 3 and 4 rapids.

As we pick you up from your hotel in the San Jose region, your trip officially begins. You will pause for breakfast on your way to the Pacuare River. You will meet your certified rafting guides at the rafting put-in and receive all required gear upon arrival. They will teach you the fundamentals of paddling as well as give you a thorough safety briefing on rafting.

Then, your group and you will start paddling through one of Costa Rica's most striking main rainforests. It’s an adrenaline-packed day running the Pacuare’s thrilling rapids.

 At one of the lovely riverside beaches, your guides will prepare a picnic lunch for you. After arriving at the take-out location, you will proceed to a location for a shower and clothes change before making your way back to San Jose.
