We will provide you with the blissfully unique opportunity to explore and discover some of the most diverse eco-systems in the world. Learn that beneath the broad leaves of the rainforest lies a majestic world of rarely seen animals, such as the jaguar. Use the capital city of San José as a base, and travel to some of the most remote areas you can imagine, over high mountains with breathtaking views, to the sunny beaches of the Atlantic or Pacific oceans.
Exploration opportunities during your vacation abound in this eco-conscious nation which has dedicated over 11% of its total land area to a National Park system that is noted as being the most diverse in all Central America. Photo opportunities abound, so bring plenty of film and be ready to snap pictures of some of the most magnificent animals in the world.
If you are looking for an action-packed one-day or multi-day trip to complement your vacation, the rivers of this beautiful land are waiting for you. The wild and scenic Pacuare River offers some of the finest rapids in Latin America. This is a rafting experience that quite simply will never be equaled - an exciting journey down a breathtaking tropical river that winds deep inside one of Costa Rica's most impressive primordial rain forest. Suitable even for first time rafters, this thrill-ride of churning water and breathtaking scenery will be the highlight of your trip. The Sarapiquí River is another delightful rafting experience everyone will enjoy.
Awaken to the sounds of the rainforest at our secluded hideaway, the Pacuare Lodge. Accessible only by rafting, our private bungalows will give you time to enjoy the simpler pleasures of life far away from the ringing of telephones and the mindless drone of the television. Take advantage of guided hikes into the surrounding jungle in search of waterfalls and natural mudslides, or spend some time in the trees on the Canopy Tour. By using the same techniques as miners and spelunkers, you can gain an appreciation of the complexity of the rainforest canopy, a virtually unspoiled world of birds, flora and fauna that will leave you breathless.

Aventuras Naturtales takes pride in the feedback of our guests because it demonstrates our success in truly satisfying our customers. Even more importantly, these comments inspire our team to work even harder to ensure that each and every one of our customers leaves Costa Rica as content as those who took the time to write to us.

I wanted to write to thank you for EVERYTHING! We all agree that this was one of the best vacations we have ever taken. The people at Aventuras Naturales are awesome and you all run an outstanding operation. Every hotel, location and detail was perfect!
It was also unanimous that our favourite part was the rafting trip with the stay at the Pacuare Lodge. I don't know how you guys built that there, but it is amazing! The bungalows, the lodge area, the hammock room, the staff - everything was great! The meals were awesome (hats off to Jorge, Miguel, Luis et al for their culinary expertise!) and we took full advantage of happy hour and the hammocks as well...
I won't go into everything, but please know that everything was great and we really appreciate your help, in planning this. I will definitely refer your company to any and all friends making the trip to your beautiful country!

Muchas gracias,
Sharon, Michele, Jen and Vince
