Wonderful day on the river

Published on Jan, 2025

My wife and I decided on the spur of the moment to book a rafting tour with Tico’s River Adventure, and it turned out to be an amazing experience from start to finish. The communication with Robert was smooth, and even the hotel pickup service was perfectly organized. We even had time for a quick coffee stop on the way to the river. Throughout the entire tour, we felt completely safe and had an incredible day. One of the highlights was the picnic on a riverbed, where the guides prepared fresh, delicious food for us. We wouldn’t hesitate to book this trip again!

Highly recommend

Wonderful day on the river with exceptional service. Communication was very good and everything was as expected. The lunch was great and the photos too, my family with older boys had a great time.

BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!

Published on Jul, 2024

This was the most exciting thing me and my friends have ever done! Roberto, Isaac the photographer, Aaron, and the driver Luis were such an amazing team! Roberto prepared us and taught us everything we needed to know before we started the trip. His experience made us feel incredibly safe. We would definitely be doing this again if we come back to Costa Rica!

Amazing family rafting experience

Published on Feb, 2024

Rafting on the lower section of the Rio Pacuare with Tico's River Adventure was the cherry on top of our already amazing Costa Rica vacation. Owner Roberto Sr. was able to arrange a family experience for us with just a 14-hr warning! On the river we felt totally safe under the guidance of his trusted, experienced, and more than witty river guide Chalo (who by the way trained 80% of the other guides in his already long career). Meanwhile, Roberto Jr. took pictures and videos of us from his vantage point in the safety kayak. Having completed the tour, we fully understand why the Rio Pacuare is in everyone's white water rafting top-5. The rapids are exciting, the surrounding mountains are lush green beyond belief, the waterfalls feeding the river are refreshing, and the insects and birds hovering above the river complete the sense of paradise. We highly recommend Roberto and his team for facilitating your Pacuare rafting adventure.

Such an exceptional adventure & tour!

Published on Dec, 2023

We loved everything about this exciting rafting trip! Owner, Roberto and his son (Also Roberto) warmly greeted us as we arrived. We packed into the van and headed out on the 45-minute drive to the starting point. On the way, we picked up Captain Chalo, who was an excellent guide. (A Costa Rican champion!) He made sure we had the very best time and shared interesting facts and history about the river. Plus, he's very funny! We always felt safe even on the wildest rapids. A quick stop about half-way for a very nice lunch and swim, and we were off again. Roberto was always around every bend on his kayak to snap fabulous photos & videos that were excellent! This tour was absolutely a highlight of our vacation! Highly recommend!!
