Pacuare River Rafting Expedition Class III-IV from San Jose

Soak up the natural beauty of the pristine Pacuare Canyon in between exhilarating Class III-IV rapids. Your guides – turned white-gloved waiters - will also treat you to a gourmet riverbank lunch in their outdoor "river restaurant." 
Start out early in the morning being pickup by your river guide at your San José hotel. With no more then one other stop en route to a deluxe Costa Rican breakfast before you get to the river. Upon arrival at the put-in point, your professional guides will give an orientation and safety discussion. Next, proceed down river on continuous Class III-IV rapids.
Be swept down the Pacuare Gorge by the currents, and soak in the natural beauty of the primary and secondary rain-forests surrounding you. Water level permitting, a guide will lead you on a hike up one of the many creeks that spill into the Pacuare. Upon return to the riverbank, you will find a gourmet lunch prepared by your guides turned white-gloved waiters.
Float and paddle downriver to the take-out in the Caribbean town of Siquirres where towels and a victory cocktail await you (alcoholic beverages available to purchase). Receive a complementary photo CD upon conclusion of your tour. Ride back to your San Jose hotel (approx. 2 - 2.5 hours).
