Balsa River Rafting

You can reach the Balsa River after just a 50-minute drive from La Fortuna. During this tour you’ll cover Class II and Class III rivers.

After covering rapids with nicknames like Magnetic Rock and Dredges, you’ll take a 15-minute break and snack on some fruit. Along the way you’ll have the chance to see monkeys, toucans, and other exotic birds.

Before you return home you’ll stop for lunch at a small organic farm called Vida Campesina. Visitors get to try traditional Costa Rican dishes, cooked over an old-fashioned wood-burning stove.

Please be advised that this tour is not possible for pregnant women, people who have had recent surgeries, people who have suffered recent injuries, and people with heart problems.

Closed toed water shoes (mandatory), quick drying clothing, sunscreen, and a change of clothes.
