Both the Budget and Deluxe 1-Day trips are on the same section of river with 35 class III and IV rapids, 26 kilometers (18 miles).

Both have professional guides and equipment.

Both trips will take excellent care of all your luggage and personal things while you are on the river.

The Deluxe trip offers breakfast & lunch, plus hotel-to-hotel transportation from/to your choice of cities: PV, San Jose or La Fortuna.

On the Budget trip, only lunch is offered, and transportation begins and ends in Siquirres or Turrialba. But it is still easy to transfer between Puerto Viejo and San Jose, and our travel information instructions will make it easier.
