5.00We made the detour from Arenal on our way to Monteverde. It was not on the way but the detour was worth it. Beautiful water at 89F, blue even more beautiful than in the photos. In addition our guide had a GoPro and shared 30 photos/videos without asking for an extra $$$. I recommend
Great Tubing Afternoon!

5.00We had a great time on the river, weather was perfect. The guides were very friendly and made sure our 5 year old was safe at all times. He had a fantastic time, smiles the whole ride down. Wife was sick the day we had it booked and contacted them an hour before we had it booked and no issues putting it off til the next day. Very accommodating, which was much appreciated. Easy recommend for anyone tubing in Rio Celeste, definitely chose the right operator.
So much fun!!!!

5.00OMG! So much fun! Very patient guide as my husband isn’t super comfortable in water. The water was cool but not cold. You get used to it quickly. The guides work so hard to give you the best experience. Amazing way to be on the river. And the water is an amazing sky blue. Loved the rope swing Appreciated having a bathroom for changing into our swim suits AND especially for changing out of wet swim suits. Hubs loved their chicken empanadas (he ordered 2 assuming they’d be small but they’re big - 1/2 the size of a dinner plate!). Everything made to order so very fresh. Beautiful shaded outdoor seating. Extremely kind family welcoming atmosphere.
Great kid friendly experience for families

5.00We had an incredible experience! The guides were exceptionally professional and friendly. I loved that they kept the groups small; our group of 9 was divided into two smaller teams, each with two dedicated guides. I traveled with my 5-year-old daughter, and the staff took amazing care of her, ensuring her life vest and helmet fit perfectly. The river itself was a stunning, vibrant blue—truly a sight to see. To top it all off, we were provided with fresh towels, delicious food, and drinks at the end of the tour. This exceeded all expectations. Highly recommended!

5.00Very nice and chill experience. Had a fantastic escort who started working as a tour guide at the same time. You were also given time to swim and hang on a vine. Would recommend this much more than viewing the waterfall (for those still in doubt)

5.00Wow, it was an AMAZING experience, that fun, our guide was great. It is an experience to do absolutely, 1 hour to have fun on the beautiful blue river, that is 6km. And to finish a nice plate of fresh fruit. Yam.
