Tour operator’s description: Go Canyoning and Rafting all in one fun day in Arenal on Desafio’s exclusove MAMBO COMBO! Make the most of your limited vacation time with our MAMBO COMBO Rappel and Raft tour near the Arenal Volcano Costa Rica. Strap on your harness and rappel yourself down several tropical waterfalls that are up to 200 feet high. You will also get to river-trace, hike, free-fall and down-climb through what we call “mother nature’s obstacle course”. If you love forest adventures that challenge you mentally and physically, you’ll love Canyoneering in the Lost Canyon. After you hike back up to the Canyon House, enjoy a delicious light early lunch or late breakfast and take a look at all of the photos of your experience. You may want to bring some extra cash to purchase a photo CD. Next, it’s time to go rafting! You can keep the same adventure clothes on because you are going to experience water like never before on the Rio Balsa rafting trip near La Fortuna Costa Rica. You will need to jump back on the Desafio Jungle Limo to make your way back down the Lost Canyon mountainside. You will might up with fello rafters as we drive about 45 minutes to the class 2-3 Balsa River. You will be able to see a lot of beautiful nature and get tons more adrenaline! The Balsa River starts off with class 3 rapids at the beginning and allows you to challenge your strength and newly learned rafting skills! Make your way through fun rapids like Rock Around the Clock and much more! About half-way through, we’ll stop and have a break for swimming, drinks and snacks before we head through the second half of the river. This is where the class 2 rapids begin, which allow you to relax and soak in the beautiful nature and spot howler monkeys and different species of birds. When you are done your rafting adventure we’ll head to a nice rural restaurant and enjoy a delicious Costa Rican style lunch. You will have another opportunity to see photos of your adventures to purchase and later show off to all of your friends and family back home. Here you will have a chance to change into your dry clothes and relax in our air-conditioned vans equipped with free Wifi. We will then drop you off at your La Fortuna hotel to relax from your jam-packed day of adventure!

Hi there,
I’m interested in the canyoneering/rafting tour combo. We will be staying at the Arenal Springs Resort & Spa hotel located (7 kms al Oeste de la Fortuna camino hacia El Volcan Arenal, 60503 Fortuna, Costa Rica)
Can you confirm the transportation amount to/from this hotel?
Thanks!
Sharon
Sharon –
Absolutely! I can confirm that transportation to and from the Arenal Springs Resort & Spa is included in the cost of the above tour (i.e., should you opt to reserve the tour, no additional pick-up or drop-off fees would apply to/from the hotel).
As a side note, if you haven’t yet reserved your stay at the Arenal Springs Resort & Spa, don’t miss our free promotion code for the Arenal Springs Resort & Spa that you can use when you place a reservation with the hotel directly. Our free promotion code will save you 25% off the hotel’s room rates.
Pura vida! 🙂
