This was one of my absolute favorite tour packages in all of our tours of Costa Rica. The guides were great, and they were very helpful. For the package, we were picked up at our hotel and taken to the ATV rental via a comfy tour van. The ATVs and safety equipment were all new-ish and well maintained. The guides went through a quick safety briefing and we were off for the trail! We went through a short beginner course to get everyone up to speed. My girlfriend rode on the back and was laughing and giggling the whole time. Lots of bumps, hills, and mud! After the farm area, you are guided through a jungle trail, then to a waterfall/river. The whole ride was about 2.5 hours. Two guides go with the group the entire time and were great at getting people out of jams, and keeping the group going. Absolutely amazing and fun! Next up was the river rafting. We were shuttled a few miles down the road via tour van to the Balsa River to be met by Carlos and our boat mates. After a quick safety briefing and instructions, we were off to paddle our way over mild to rough rapids. Class 2 and 3 was perfect for my girlfriend, who was a bit hesitant about rafting. She had a great time though. There was a spot in the middle of the trip where we got to jump in the river for a swim. Water was cool and fun. One of the safety guides is also a photographer for the group, so was taking pictures along the way for purchase later. Our boat captain/guide was great at commanding the boat and making sure we avoided obstacles, etc. In fact, I'm pretty sure he could have got got us through the rapids on his own without us even rowing, LOL. Anyway, absolutely amazing trip! My favorite package of our entire Costa Rica trip, and we did everything from horseback riding to walking tours to nature hikes to zip lining, etc. etc. This was the most fun of all of the tours we did!
From start to finish, this was one of the best experiences we have had. It is well worth the price and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Gracias a todos por su buen hacer.Estuvimos por la zona en época lluviosa y no podíamos dejar pasar la oportunidad de hacer esta actividad. Impresionante la bajada por el río Balsa. Pasamos una mañana muy divertida. Recomendable 100%.
