My 7 year old and I had a great time kayaking, and we basically had a private tour, as we were the only two kayakers and there were only a few people on one raft behind us. We lucked out with the weather as it had rained a lot the previous day. The river was beautiful. Kayaking was easy and it was so peaceful looking around at the animals and scenery. The snack of tortillas, fresh cheese, and fried plantains at the end was a nice treat as well as the brief chocolate demonstration and tasting.

We had a great time doing the kayak tour! Warner was a super fun guide. He pointed out lots of wildlife to us and took some pictures for us. The food at the end was a great touch as well!

This was the best part of our trip to Costa Rica! We saw howler monkeys, Crocodiles, a great white egret. It was beautiful and peaceful. Our guide was great. I like that it was a float, and not a race, so we were able to really experience nature.
