Savegre White Water Rafting

Assisted by experienced and expert guides, this white water rafting tour will be tailored to your experience and skill level. The Naranjo and Savegre Rivers are a stunningly beautiful natural resource with class II, III and IV rapids. River banks are overgrown by the jungle; canyon walls meet the whitewater at 90 degree angles; if you are into the river running experience, this is the place to go!

Depart hotel at 7 a.m. Arrive at base of operations for a complete breakfast. Then it's off to the river, making your way through the picturesque Costa Rican countryside, riding through some of Costa Rica's most beautiful coffee plantations.

On the way, guides will begin your orientation to the rafting experience. These fluently bilingual guides will help determine your skill level. People of the same skill level are grouped together...unless of course you have a group of people you would like to keep together for the tour.

Upon arriving at the river, the instruction continues. Rafters are outfitted with life vest, oars, and helmets. Guides cover all contingency situations and rehearse procedures. Again, people of the same skill levels are matched with each other.

Then it's off down the river! People are grouped six to a raft. There will be one stop when one of the rafts is overturned on the shore to be used as a serving table where a lunch will be served. Then it's back into the river for the rest of the wilderness ride. When finished, you will be transported back to the hotel, savoring memories of an unforgettable experience!

Actual time in the river is approximately four hours. The actual class of rapids depends on season and rainfall; since Amigos Del Rio has both the Naranjo and Savegre rivers to chose from, rafters will always be matched to their appropriate levels of difficulty.
