Day 1 --- Arrive (Casa Turire Room Type: Suites)
Today we will meet you outside of the airport (SJO). Your group will have private transportation and will be able to stop and go as you wish for pictures, snacks, or just to enjoy a view. Your naturalist guide and driver are often what make trips exciting and we promise you a fun and engaging CRR-Team for your week in Costa Rica!
After your arrival we'll make the drive through the capital city to one of my favorite hotels. This is the Casa Turire Hotel and is located in the valley of Turrialba with amazing views of the smokin' Turrialba Volcano. The rooms are amazing, service is excellent, and it is small so it works great for small groups. (Meals: None)

| Pacuare River |
Today we will leave around 9am for one of our favorite adventures in Costa Rica. The Pacuare River is rated one of the three most scenic rivers on the planet by National Geographic. Here you will see the true and amazing beauties that Costa Rica has to offer. Your rafting trip will be privately operated by the CRR-Raft guides and a chance to enjoy the river without large crowds.
Your CRR guides will prepare a river lunch for the group and make it a meal you will not forget. After lunch we'll continue down river, enjoying some of the most picturesque parts.
When we take out of the Pacuare we will drive back to the Casa Turire Hotel where you can relax in the pool and enjoy the hotel grounds. If you are up for an authentic Costa Rica activity we can take the group to a local village with breath-taking views of the valley and have a home-made meal from the family of one of our raft guides. We can also arrange some local and traditional dance performances by the local kids to give you a true taste of the Costa Rican culture. (Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, & Dinner)

Costa Rica is known for the ziplines and here on the side of the Arenal Volcano is one of the best ziplines in all of the country. We will leave the hotel in the morning and drive to the other side of the volcano where you have fantastic views of the Arenal Lake and volcano.
