Lots of fun
Our guide Wilbur took us out on the water. He was very knowledgeable and pointed out lots of wildlife. We had a lot of fun. The two places we stopped at for snacks and then lunch were great.
Response from the operator: Hello Friends! Thanks for sharing your experience with us We are very happy to hear that you had an excellent experience and that the guide was to your liking, thank you for recommending us! Pura Vida

Floating down the river seeing wildlife
Fantastic tour. Floated down the river while seeing a huge family of howler monkeys (stoped to watch about 15 of them including babies for a while), many birds and iguanas, a slot, and a baby crocodile. Our guide will was excellent at spotting wildlife and was very friendly and professional. Would highly recommend this tour
Response from the operator: Hola amigos! Thank you for coming and sharing your review. The Safari Float is one of the best tours to see monkeys, we are glad that you were able to see them. Pura vida!

Safari float and Waterfall tour
This was a wonderful experience with our guide, Wilbert. The safari float was very peaceful with beautiful scenery. Wilbert would point out wildlife and birds along the way. We saw monkeys and tuscans! We had a delicious authentic Costa Rican snack before we embarked on the hike to the La Fortuna waterfall! We walked down to 500 stairs to the beautiful powerful fall and we were able to swim and relax. We trekked back up the 500 stairs 🫠 and Wilbert took us to a wonderful restaurant where we enjoyed a delicious authentic meal. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed Wilbert's company!
Response from the operator: Hola Jean! We really appreciate your comments, it seems like our team is doing a good job and it motivates us to keep on working hard :) Showing you the beauty of our country is the way we have to tell you welcome to Costa Rica :) Pura Vida!! See you next time:) Thank you for choosing Green Vacations Costa Rica!

Good day
The safari float was awesome. Raul was very personable and great with the kids. He stopped for them to swim and helped them spot animals. They loved it. The snacks and coffee at the little farm were just perfect! The second part of the trip was just ok.

Great wildlife watching experience
Great experience. Pepe and Raul were excellent tour guides who were skilled at navigating the river and finding animals, including monkeys and sloths. Highly recommended!

Safari Float, Fortuna Waterfall and Typical lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for La Fortuna.
How much does Safari Float, Fortuna Waterfall and Typical lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $102 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 Safari Float, Fortuna Waterfall and Typical lunch take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Safari Float, Fortuna Waterfall and Typical lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 18 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 Safari Float, Fortuna Waterfall and Typical lunch?
+
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 Safari Float, Fortuna Waterfall and Typical lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Safari Float, Fortuna Waterfall and Typical lunch?
+
Around 6 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Safari Float, Fortuna Waterfall and Typical lunch 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, North Fields Cafe: Craft Specialty Coffee and Chocolate Tour, Canyoning Adventure Rappelling Waterfalls in Arenal Volcano. 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.
