Savegre White Water Rafting

This adventure combines Class II & III rapids, rainforest scenery, swimming spots, and wildlife sightings, making it ideal for families and adventure seekers.

Your experience begins with round-trip transportation from Jacó or Herradura, followed by a scenic 90-minute drive through tropical rainforest, mountains, and rural villages toward the Quepos region, with a light breakfast and coffee along the way.

Professional certified bilingual guides provide a full safety briefing and paddling instructions before the adventure.
