The trip begins with a 20 minute ride to the river. Guests will float down the river for approximately two hours during which they will have the opportunity to see much of Costa Rica's famous wildlife and have an interactive conversation with their guide. At the end of the trip you will arrive at a local farm where the owner is a well-known Costa Rican horse breeder and trainer. His wife makes delicious homemade snacks and serves Chorreado coffee.
