This聽trip takes in some of the best rafting on the Sarapiqui River and covers聽a stretch of聽seven聽miles between the two communities of La Virgen and Chilamate. This lovely section of the river features four class II rapids聽and聽20 class III rapids and is a gentler rafting experience than some of the other river trips in Costa Rica.

After the rafting you can relax at the Selva Verde restaurant, where there are showers and changing facilities, before returning to your hotel.
