Super fun trip for the family!
We had a great experience on our combo trip! Our guides were excellent both during canyoning and rafting with their sister company, Wave Rafting. Family of 4 (kids ages 8 and 10) and it was some of our 1st times on class II and III rapids. We felt super safe, had some incredible runs, and really enjoyed the adventure. Would absolutely recommend this trip!

Great experience! Pure...
Great experience! Pure trek was so easy to work with, great at responding to any questions and the crew were fantastic at keeping everyone safe and having a great time! The first drop was the most intimidating because you have no idea what you're in for. Everyone in our family had a fabulous time and it's a unique experience that was a must do on our trip!

Pure Trek Canyoning & White Water Rafting Class II & III: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for La Fortuna.
How much does Pure Trek Canyoning & White Water Rafting Class II & III cost?
+
Prices start at $205 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in La Fortuna usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Pure Trek Canyoning & White Water Rafting Class II & III take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in La Fortuna is not rushed.
Is Pure Trek Canyoning & White Water Rafting Class II & III worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 101 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in La Fortuna, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Pure Trek Canyoning & White Water Rafting Class II & III?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Pure Trek Canyoning & White Water Rafting Class II & III suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Pure Trek Canyoning & White Water Rafting Class II & III?
+
Around 35 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in La Fortuna can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in La Fortuna and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Pure Trek Canyoning & White Water Rafting Class II & III start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central La Fortuna within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in La Fortuna?
+
On Outty we rank every La Fortuna experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Upper Balsa River White Water Rafting Class 3/4 in Costa Rica, White Water Rafting Class II and III, Authentic Coffee and Chocolate Tour at North Fields. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit La Fortuna?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in La Fortuna?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

Included: Driver/guide; Lunch; Beverages; Photographer for Canyoning (Photos available for purchase); and All activities. Not included: Gratuities; and Photography will be sold at the end of the tour for an extra charge (optional). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Pure Trek Canyoning & White Water Rafting Class II & III include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 76 listed pickup locations in and around La Fortuna. Be ready about 60 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Pure Trek Canyoning & White Water Rafting Class II & III offered in?
