We had an amazing time on our 2 day rafting adventure on the Pacuare river! Definitely a recommendation to do the 2 day experience. The guides are amazing and make sure everything goes safely. The food during lunch/dinner/breakfast was also great. Big up to José Luiz and the rest of the guides for providing us with an amazing time and unforgettable experience. 12/10 would recommend! Pura vida ????

We had a grand time rafting the Rio Pacuare. It was a highlight of our trip already packed with much goodness. Our experience was enhanced by our wonderful guides, Eduardo and Jose Luis, who took care of us with great professionalism, taught us how to go safely go down the rapids, prepared us a lovely meal and kept us entertained the whole way. Memorable. I highly recommend Explornatura for a phenomenal experience!
