MULTI - DAY MODULES 
2 days/1night
This 3-day Pacuare adventure tour will leave you with the lasting memories of Costa Rica's magnificent tropical beauty.

Day 1:    On the first day of the journey to the Pacuare Rainforest, we'll pick you up at your San José hotel. After leaving the city, you'll pass through the spectacular Braulio Carrillo Rainforest, stopping for an authentic Costa Rican breakfast before reaching our embarkation site. Once in the water, you'll experience the exhilaration of riding the waves on this wild and scenic river, which courses through a tropical wilderness of dense vegetation and steep gorges that rise majestically above its banks.
When we arrive at our overnight destination, you will find a jungle oasis nestled in the middle of an enchanting and captivating rainforest. Surrounded by nature in its purest and most primitive state, a two-story jungle lodge houses rustic but comfortable dining facilities on the first floor, and plenty of relaxing hammocks in an open-air second floor lounge. Electricity free, the lodge provides the ultimate in environmentally friendly comfort and relaxation. Lunch will be prepared by your guide, and the afternoon is yours- you can take a short guided hike through the surrounding rainforest, experience the Pacuare Canopy Adventure into the forest canopy, take a dip in the river, or just relax in one of the many hammocks. Happy Hour begins at dusk, when you can share your experiences with your fellow travelers. Later, a candlelight dinner with wine is served to you by our guides. Your sleeping accommodations are in comfortable bungalows, constructed in the traditional style used by the Indians of this area and spaced to provide privacy and lots of green area. Each bungalow has a private porch, bathroom with running water, and comfortable beds with fresh linens.

Day 2:   In the morning, after a hot breakfast, we will embark on a guided trek into the rainforest surrounding the lodge. Resplendent with tropical birds, butterflies, exotic plants, and animals, this truly stunning natural paradise provides a one-of-a-kind setting for photographs, or just lasting memories. For hearty hikers, there is a five- to six- hour hike into the rainforest mountains to an area where some of the indigenous Cabecar families live. We return to "base camp" at the Pacuare Lodge in time to shower, rest or play before this evening's Happy Hour, followed by dinner prepared by one of our expert guide/chefs. As the sun sets over the jungle canopy, and the beautiful Pacuare River rushes on beneath crimson skies, you have a chance to share with others what very few have experienced before.

Day 3:   After a hot breakfast, we launch the rafts again for the last part of our trip. Rafting becomes even more exciting today as you use the skills and experience gained on this trip. Your guides will stop the rafts along the journey and lead you up paths and side streams that open onto pristine waterfalls and natural water slides. Here you can swim, splash, and live it up! Lunch will be served along the river, and when we reach the take out, we'll board the comfortable microbus for our return to San José, relaxing with the group as this adventure draws to a close.

You can also experience this tour entering and/or exiting by helicopter!
