Whitewater Rafting Savegre River Class II & III + Waterfall Break

We went whitewater rafting with several families, including kids, and every single one of us had a blast. The rapids were exciting and just the right level of thrilling — and thanks to the expert (and playful) guides, we felt safe and well taken care of the entire time. Along the way, we stopped at a stunning waterfall and learned so much about Costa Rica’s incredible natural beauty. The day wrapped up perfectly with a delicious, relaxing lunch at a charming local restaurant. Can’t recommend this experience highly enough!

What an absolutely amazing experience! The Savegre River rafting tour with Extreme M&R was the perfect mix of adventure, natural beauty, and fun. From start to finish, everything was incredibly well-organized and professional. Our guides were not only super knowledgeable and experienced, but also hilarious, kind, and made us feel safe and excited the whole time. The rapids were just the right level, thrilling without being overwhelming. The scenery along the river was breathtaking. lush jungle, exotic birds, and crystal-clear water everywhere you looked. We left with huge smiles, amazing memories, and a ton of great photos and videos (which the team shared with us after, such a great bonus!). If you're in Costa Rica and want to add a bit of adrenaline and nature to your trip, do not miss this tour. It was hands-down one of the highlights of our whole vacation.

The van with our guide, Mao, picked us up on time at our airbnb in Manuel Antonio (Loma Linda, also highly recommended. Sonia hooked us up with this river rafting trip). We drove around an hour or so to the mountains and Mao was an amazing guide: he pointed out numerous interesting plants and animals along the way, and was diligent in reviewing safety protocols for the raft and coordinating our rowing efforts. We had perfect weather too. There was a delicious snack of pineapple, plantain chips and cookies at a triple waterfall, and lunch was also included at the end. The only downside was the additional employee in a kayak who went ahead of us and positioned himself at two of the larger rapids to take pictures, none of which came out. From pickup to drop off was around 6 hours. Highly recommended!
