AvailableOne of the best ways to experience Costa Rica is on a white water rafting trip—you see places, animals, and scenery that are often otherwise missed. There are several options for this rafting excursion on the Sarapiquí River, including Class II and III tours, Class IV tours, and a safari float.
These tours are run by Hacienda Pozo Azul and take place in Costa Rica’s Sarapiquí region. Rafting is a thrilling way to get outside and explore Costa Rica. As you rush down the river, you’ll go over exciting rapids and pass some of the prettiest scenery in all of the country.
The Class II and III tour leaves at Hacienda’s put-in and runs 8 miles (13 km) to Chilamete. This two-hour trip runs year round and does not require any previous experience. The 14-foot rafts take four or six passengers. The minimum age is nine years old.
All tour participants are fitted with life vests and safety helmets. Your guides provide you with safety instructions and you’ll also practice paddling before getting into your assigned positions on the boat. Safety kayaks accompany the Class II/III. After the tour is over, you’ll drive back to Hacienda Pozo Azul to change and shower.
