About Rio Celeste Aventuras
Our Story: More Than Just a Tour
Rio Celeste Aventuras was born in 2015 from a simple idea held by a passionate local founder. The dream wasn’t just to start a business, but to share the incredible, hidden wonders of our local home with visitors from around the world.
For the past 10 years, we’ve grown from that simple dream into the most trusted team of expert guides in the region, but our original passion for authentic adventure and a deep respect for nature remains at the heart of everything we do.
Meet Our Expert Guides
An adventure is only as good as the guide leading the way. In a place as magical as Rio Celeste, anyone can show you the path, but only a true local can show you its soul. We’re incredibly proud that our team is built of these local experts—the heart and spirit of Rio Celeste Aventuras. They were raised with the stories of the Tenorio Volcano and know the river not by maps, but by memory. They are the reason our tours are more than just a trip—they are an authentic connection to the culture, the nature, and the real ‘pura vida’ of Costa Rica. Here’s a brief introduction to the people who will make your journey unforgettable.
Gerald – The Architect of Your Adventure
daniel waiskopf Excelente experiencia con Osmar y Alejandro una experiencia hermosa en un GOMON CIRCULAR por rápidos de agua del Rio...recomiendo sin dudar Gerardo Fernandez Un gran servicio, personas muy amables y profesionales Martin Groenenberg Bij Rio Celeste Aventuras hebben we kunnen Tubingen over de azuurblauwe rivier. Dit was een super leuke ervaring. Rivier was niet te wild dus zeer geschikt voor families met kinderen. De tour leiders kennen het gebied goed en geven duidelijke aanwijzingen of zorgen ervoor dat je op een veilig manier terug komt. Er staat twee uur tuben, maar dat is inclusief instructies uitrust en vervoer terug. Leuke en aardige medewerkers. Andrew W We had a great time with our guide Daniel! Over all a great experience! Melanie Pelletier Nous avons adoré notre expérience en famille. Malheureusement nous n’avons pas croisé d’animaux sur notre parcours, mais l’activité a été apprécié par tout les membres de la famille. L’activité dure environ 1h30 et inclus plusieurs photos/vidéo sur le parcours ainsi qu’une collation. Amir Keren Nick jose felix rojas corrales Edna Rodriguez Gerald and Olman were our guides and were absolutely wonderful! They did such a great job of of pointing out wildlife and pulling our tubes over during the tour so that we could get a good view. We ended up seeing five sloths and three toucans. We also saw howler and cappuccino monkeys. My 77 year old father was with us and Gerald was wonderful with him. Afterwards, they served us water, watermelon and the sweetest pineapple! To top things off, they Airdropped photos and videos that they had taken with their GoPro without any additional charge. I highly recommend them! Mitzi Morse My friends and I booked zip lining. I had an emergency and I could not join the rest of my group. The employees could not have been nicer to help me work it out!! My friends had an amazing time on the line and saw 5 sloths!! Nature is unpredictable but came through for them for sure. Reasonable price for a great time.
