Savegre River Rafting 2-Day

Introduction

This 2 day adventure will begin with a transfer from Manuel Antonio / Quepos or San José* to San Isidro de el General, the most important town on the southern Interamerican highway, located on the southern slope of the Chirripo National Park.

A commercial center of coffee farms, cattle ranches and plant nurseries. We will drive east to “El Llano”, a small town in the middle of the mountains where our white water adventure will begin. After a safety talk by one of our professional bilingual guides we will start running continuous class III and IV rapids on the Division river, the main tributary to the Savegre river, one of the most pristine rivers in the country surrounded by impressive views of primary forest.

The trip will continue through one of the most remote canyons on the Savegre river passing rapids like “Cinderella” and “Malibu”. We will arrive at “Rafiki Safari Lodge”, a wilderness resort with a little touch of Africa, the place where we will spend the night. Here we will be hosted by the south African family that runs the place, sleep in luxury safari tents with private baths, fire heated hot water showers and a swimming pool with a water slide.

After a good night rest on Rafiki we will begin our second day running “La boca del Diablo” a class III rapid that will wake us up! We will continue our descent on the Savegre river running class III and II rapids all the way down to the bridge on the Pacific Coastal Highway, where our transport will be waiting to meet us and drive us north to Manuel Antonio.

*transfer from San José is not included, it can be arranged
