About this experience
Get ready for an adrenaline-pumping adventure on the Tenorio River, one of the most exciting white water rafting experiences in all of Costa Rica!
THE TENORIO RIVER EXPERIENCE
The Tenorio River flows through a stunning volcanic landscape, fed by the waters of the Tenorio Volcano and surrounded by lush tropical rainforest. This river is renowned for its consistent Class III and IV rapids that provide the perfect balance of excitement and safety — thrilling enough for adventure seekers, yet manageable for those with basic fitness levels.
Your adventure begins with a comprehensive safety briefing from your experienced river guides, who are certified professionals with years of navigating these waters. You will be fitted with top-quality safety equipment including helmets, life jackets, and paddles.
RAPIDS & WILDLIFE
As you navigate through the rapids, you will paddle through narrow canyons, bounce over exciting drops, and glide through calmer stretches where you can catch your breath and admire the incredible scenery. The Tenorio River corridor is home to an abundance of wildlife — keep your eyes peeled for toucans, herons, iguanas, and if you are lucky, howler monkeys swinging through the canopy above.
The approximately 12-kilometer route takes you through some of the most beautiful and untouched landscapes in Guanacaste, with towering trees, hanging vines, and crystal-clear tributary streams joining the main river along the way.
After your rafting adventure, enjoy a well-deserved traditional Costa Rican lunch at a riverside restaurant, where you can relive the excitement of the day and share stories with your fellow rafters.
