5.00Elmer is the rock star of tubing tour guides. He humbly admitted that he was NOT the owner - but you'd never know it. He treated the business and us (the customers) with a special level of personal investment. We had a GREAT time because of him and the team, and we got great photos and video after!!!
Incredible experience

5.00I loved the tour; Grillo is super friendly, attentive, and always focused on ensuring we enjoyed ourselves to the fullest while also taking safety precautions. The river is beautiful! One leaves feeling renewed. The company is serious, and they are 100% locals, very kind and cheerful people. Thank you, we will return with friends.

5.00An amazing and unforgettable experience at Rio Celeste! The tubing adventure was absolutely thrilling — cool refreshing water, stunning blue river views, light rain adding to the atmosphere, and exciting Tarzan jumps along the way. The tour operator and guides were fantastic — very knowledgeable, professional, and great at handling the tubes, which made the whole trip feel safe and fun. Ending the tour with fresh fruits was a really nice touch too. Everything was well organized, adventurous, and memorable. Highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Rio Celeste!
For the whole family. Including small children.

5.00The Rio Celeste tubing tour was one of the highlights of our trip. The rapids were the perfect balance of fun and adventurous without feeling overwhelming. We even spotted dart frogs along the way, which made the experience even more unique. Our guide, Luis, was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole tour both exciting and informative. You can tell he really cares about the environment and making sure everyone has a great time. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area! Recommend having water shoes.

5.00We had an absolutely incredible experience with family during this tubing activity at Rio Celeste. Our two guides were exceptional: caring, patient, reassuring, and truly extraordinary with our children. They took the time to adapt to our pace and desires, especially when the children wanted to stay longer to swim or redo the Tarzan rope. Even when we, the parents, were a bit nervous about certain parts, the guides accompanied our children with such kindness and safety that we quickly gained confidence. It was clear that they genuinely wanted our family to fully enjoy the experience and create beautiful memories. Thank you for your kindness, energy, and professionalism — this day will remain one of the highlights of our trip to Costa Rica ❤️
My Favorite Experience of the Trip!

5.00First of all, our guide, Christian was amazing! He was fun but not overbearing. He worked really hard to keep us in good spots at all times and seemed invested in our enjoyment. The river is beautiful, even with some rain sprinkles. It was not as warm as the natural hot springs but still like air temperature - MUCH nicer temperature than the rivers in the Northern US, plus the color - so cool! Don't hesitate to book this adventure. :)
Very memorable tubing experience!

5.00The tubing experience with this company was fantastic! Luis provided an amazing experience tubing, stopping for a rope swing and mud masks! While it is a bit off the beaten path down dirt roads, it was well worth it to go with them and we had a delicious lunch at their place right after. A++!
