San Jose One Day Tour: Jungle Safari Float on the Sarapiqui River
Experience the wonders of nature and wildlife on our exciting Jungle Safari Float in Sarapiqui, just a short trip away from the bustling city of San Jose! This serene two-hour paddle along the class 1 section of the Sarapiqui River is ideal for nature enthusiasts of all ages, including families with children. Accompanied by our knowledgeable naturalist guide, you'll effortlessly glide down the river, spotting a variety of exotic wildlife such as birds, frogs, insects, and monkeys.
We provide convenient hotel pickup within the greater metropolitan area of San Jose before embarking on our journey. As we leave the city behind, we traverse picturesque rural roads. Our bilingual nature guide will expertly navigate the boat and ensure you don't miss any of the Costa Rican rainforest's remarkable wildlife, including birds, frogs, insects, and monkeys.
Starting from the San Jose Metropolitan Area, we'll transport you to Sarapiqui, beginning our adventure with a visit to the breathtaking Pozo Azul River waterfall. Here, you and your family can relish in the beauty of nature and cool off in the crystal-clear waters. Following this, we'll head to our restaurant, Red Eye Frog, situated in El Roble of Sarapiqui, preparing you for an unforgettable 2-hour Jungle Safari float.
During the float, your sharp-eyed guide will showcase Costa Rica's extraordinary wildlife, pointing out a diverse range of plant and animal species. As you navigate along the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor (San Juan La Selva Biological Corridor), keep an eye out for sloths, howler monkeys, lizards, and even black river otters.
Moreover, this region is renowned for its abundant tropical bird population, including ospreys, boat-billed herons, parrots, kingfishers, and the endangered great green macaw.
For those seeking a closer connection with nature, you'll have the opportunity to disembark from the raft and float down the river.
The Jungle Safari Float is an ideal choice for nature enthusiasts of all ages, with children particularly enjoying this tour. It's also perfect for couples or large groups seeking a tranquil and memorable experience in the heart of a tropical paradise.
