We had an absolutely fantastic time with Gerald! The river tubing was the perfect mix of excitement and relaxation. Gerald was an excellent guide - very knowledgeable about the area and made sure everyone felt safe while having fun. The scenery was breathtaking with lush rainforest all around. The equipment was top quality and Gerald even took photos for us during the trip. This was definitely one of the highlights of our Costa Rica vacation. Highly recommend!

Gerald is an amazing guide with years of experience. The river tubing adventure was perfectly organized from start to finish. We felt completely safe with all the provided equipment (helmets, life jackets, quality tubes). The river has just the right amount of rapids to be exciting without being scary. Gerald knows all the best spots and even showed us some wildlife along the way. The price is very reasonable compared to other tour companies. Don't miss this if you're in La Fortuna!
