Traveler Reviews

Fun river rafting with very competent guide. We felt really safe and had a great time on the river. We recommend this experience!

Today went whitewater rafting with SOC for our honeymoon in Costa Rica. It was truly one of the best experiences in our life! Our guides Justin and Steve were incredible but also David and 'la abuela' were so friendly and open towards us, we really felt at ease and at home. The river rafting was crazy and awesome, we did level 3 and 4 and it was pretty intense... We fell out but we're swiftly picked up by our guide, so no harm no foul :-). Afterwards we were treated to an amazing vegan lunch, great coffee and some freshly pressed sugar cane shots. I could not recommend a place more than this! If you're here, you have to do it! Thank you again at your amazing crew for this unforgettable day :-)

A huge thank you to the team at Sarapaqui Outdoor centre. An amazing experience , filled with adrenaline but at the same time I felt extremely safe thanks to our knowledgeable guide. Professional equipment , helmets and life jacket! Lovely snacks after the tour too. 100% reccomend booking to go rafting with Sarapaqui Outdoor Centre!

We had an amazing time on this excursion. David was so accommodating and even moved our time slot back to the afternoon last minute. He arranged our transportation from the hotel. We felt safe with our guide, but it was definitely an adrenaline rush. Highly highly recommend this family-owned business.

I want to begin by saying we had the best experience doing the white water rafting here it was amazing and super fun! Our guides today were Eric and Mariano they made the whole day even better with there charisma and knowledge of the river. If you're debating choosing any place to do rafting choose this one!!
