White water rafting in Savegre with collective transportation

Embark on a thrilling adventure through the pristine waters of Costa Rica’s cleanest river, navigating through Experience III rapids that promise a blend of serene paddling and exhilarating white-water excitement.

The journey begins with a 90-minute scenic drive to the rafting launch site, where you’ll experience breathtaking rainforest views, quaint villages, and meandering streams in this rural San Gerardo de Dota area.

After receiving safety briefings and some practice time, you’ll hop aboard 6-passenger or 2-passenger rafts guided by an experienced instructor. A kayaker will accompany the group closely throughout the expedition for added security.

The Savegre River boasts a mix of II and III-class rapids, offering twists and turns that guarantee an adrenaline-pumping experience. Amidst the excitement, you’ll also have the chance to marvel at the abundant flora and fauna along the riverbanks, with opportunities to take refreshing swims in calmer waters or even disembark momentarily from your raft.

Upon returning to base camp after a shorter 30-minute ride, you’ll have the chance to dry off, change into fresh attire, and indulge in a delicious meal.
