This
is a truly delightful rafting experience that everyone will enjoy, and ideal for
those who are testing themselves on whitewater for the first time. Beginning
near a picturesque train station that was once a stop along Costa Rica's famous
Jungle Train, and continuing along this classic trajectory, this section offers
beautiful jungle scenery with wide open spaces backdropped by the magnificent
Turrialba Volcano. The emotion of numerous rapids completes this exceptional
white-water experience on the mighty Reventazón River.
To begin the trip, we will pick you up from your San José hotel in one of our
comfortable minibuses for your journey to the river put in. This trip offers the
added extra of taking you along the highway that runs through spectacular
Braulio Carrillo National Park. As you wind through this protected area's
mountains and valleys, you will enjoy spectacular views of mist-shrouded virgin
rainforest stretching as far as the eye can see.
Once through the national park and down in the tropical lowlands, you will stop
for a traditional Costa Rican breakfast, and continue on to the river put in.
After some brief safety instructions, you'll launch your raft and begin this
exciting white-water journey. A delicious lunch is served on the banks of the
river during the trip. At the river take out, you will be able to change into
dry clothes for the return to San José.
Depart from San José, driving approximately 2
hours to the Reventazón River. Breakfast en route. At the put in you'll rig
your raft and begin the journey downriver. River time: approximately 2 1/2
hours depending on the water level. Lunch on the riverbank before the
afternoon take out and return to San José.
