    Overall we had a great time!!
    Liz_U, Mar 2024
    Nice amenities in location, friendly staff (2 members dedicated to our 6 people group). Activity started on time. I didn't give 5 starts because website for booking does not mention that the starting location is approximately 30 min away from other tubing areas near Tenorio Volcano National Park where the Rio Celeste Waterfall is. During our visit (March 2024), the river water level was low (or at least it was at the areas where our adventure started), which made it difficult for myself and, another member of my group, to get thru the river rapid areas without getting stuck between the rocks. We hurt our bottoms quite a bit (nothing serious) and the staff struggled a lot trying to pull our heavy bodies downriver. Overall, we DID have fun and the river landscape was gorgeous. At the end of the activity the staff provided fresh fruit and water.
    Beautiful water, less crowds

    We loved our tubing experience with Christian. The water was beautiful, and the tubing was tons of fun. Would definitely come back! Lovely people, great time!
    One of our favorite excursions in LaFortuna

    We are elderly. David saw to it that we were taken care of from start to finish of our excursion. He took extra care in getting us into our safety gear and into our tubes. He also set up our "go pro" on my husbands safety helmet. All along he kept asking if we were having a good time because it was most important. We talked back and forth about each other cultures and learned more about Costa Rica. Our ride back to the reception area was fantastic. Had a little Kareoke going. Made us smile. After return, we were directed to the showers for a rinse off and then served fresh watermelon and pineapple. Last tour of the day. We were not rushed at all. Everyone was so nice.
