General Information About Tenorio River Rafting Class 3-4 (No Transport)
Tenorio River Rafting Class 3-4 Tenorio (no transport)
Costa Rica has some of the best whitewater rafting options in the whole world! Be sure to go white water rafting when you are staying at the beach in Guanacaste or Playa Samara -- it will be one of your best days ever in Costa Rica is you go rafting with us!
This description is for rafting clients who have rented a car or have their own transportation. (Please note that we also offer transportation from your Guanacaste hotel and our Adventure Connection Transfer + Tour option from Arenal or Monteverde.) We have ample, safe parking at our Tenorio Outpost, so feel free to leave your vehicle behind.
Once you've arrived at our Tenorio Outpost Operations Center and Restaurant located on the PanAmerican Highway next to the Corobici River Bridge (located about 1 hour and 45 minutes from Liberia and about 8 minutes before you arrive to Canas), we'll have you sign our Waiver form and tell you a little about current conditions on the river.
Your guides will then get you loaded up into our All-Terrain-Tenorio 4x4 and drive about 45 minutes across the rustic Costa Rican back roads, through gorgeous mountains and quaint villages until we reach the Tenorio River private put-in.
Your professional guides will give you a safety briefing about your rafting expedition including safety tips and technical instructions.
Now you're ready to head out on your 2.5-hour journey down one of Costa Rica’s most famous rivers!
You’ll witness the impressive canyon of the Tenorio River along with many different types of flora and fauna - there is a unique contrast of the red rocks against the green plants that line the canyon. Your guide will try to point out birds, monkeys and other types of wildlife as you make your way through highly technical and tight rapids along the way.
You’ll experience over 20 thrilling rapids, and finish the tour by going over Costa Rica's most extreme whitewater rapid that we have named Cascabel Falls – an intense 12-ft waterfall drop!
After this rafting tour is over, you'll be treated to some snacks and then hike a bit up to where your 4x4 transportation is waiting for you to take you back on another 35-minute ride back though wild, rustic Costa Rican roads to return to the Tenorio Outpost restaurant. You will have an opportunity to change your clothing and enjoy a delicious traditional Costa Rican lunch!
