Llanos de Cortes Waterfall & Safari Float

This itinerary combines relaxation with adventure and offers a taste of Costa Rica’s diverse landscapes and vibrant wildlife.

Río Tenorio Safari Float

Experience the serene beauty of the Río Tenorio on a gentle safari float designed for nature enthusiasts. Your expert guide will navigate the raft while highlighting the rich biodiversity of the area. Keep your eyes peeled for a variety of wildlife, including monkeys, lizards, crocodiles, and river otters, as well as an impressive array of tropical birds such as ospreys, boat-billed herons, parrots, and kingfishers. This relaxing float is ideal for all ages and offers a tranquil way to connect with nature.

After the float, enjoy a refreshing break with a selection of fresh tropical fruits. You'll then be transported back to the starting point for a delicious, traditional Costa Rican lunch. For those seeking more adventure, there’s the option to pair this float with Río Tenorio’s Class 3-4 whitewater rafting, making it a perfect full-day outing for families and nature lovers alike.

Llanos del Cortes Waterfall

As the day progresses, journey to Bagaces, a charming canton in Guanacaste known for its hidden gems. After passing the entrance to Bagaces and crossing Río Piedras, follow the road to the farm entrance. A small, voluntary donation is appreciated and supports local community initiatives.

The road leading to the waterfall's parking lot might be rough, but it’s passable. Once parked, you’ll be greeted by a caretaker who will guide you to the Llanos de Cortes waterfall and a nearby natural pool. A short 50-meter walk leads you to the stunning Llanos de Cortes, often compared to a private beach with its picturesque cascade. Take in the view, relax in the shade, and enjoy a refreshing swim in this spectacular natural setting.
