Overnight Pacuare Eco Lodge. Breakfast, lunch and dinner included.
Day 2
Rafting – Part II
Your rafting trip continues down the most challenging section of the Pacuare as class IV drops seem to be around every corner. The spectacular river canyon and virgin rainforest create vertical walls of green, broken by waterfalls and hanging vines. This stretch of the Lower Pacuare River has been voted one of the top 5 commercially rafted rivers in the world by National Geographic and will have you floating past primary rainforest, stunning waterfalls, steep canyons and fun class III and IV rapids. You will enjoy a sumptuous river picnic along the way before reaching the “take out” point in the Caribbean lowlands. After an enjoyable ride you will continue your journey to Arenal where you will check into your hotel, The Springs Resort & Spa. Breakfast and lunch included.
Day 3
Free Day
Perched on top of a mountain ridge with a spectacular view of the Arenal Volcano, The Springs is the only hotel in Costa Rica where you can explore a wildlife preserve in the morning, and relax in one of 28 springs in the afternoon. Break your day with a meal in one of five amazing restaurants, and you’ll understand why it’s one of the best hotels in Costa Rica. Breakfast included.
