Close friends of mine, all adults and one young child, took a safari float tour with Dinghy Expeditions while in La Fortuna, Costa Rica. The Costa Rican jungle did not disappoint! The wildlife and natural scenery had us in complete amazement the entire time, even when the rains came. The tour started off being picked up by Andres and a driver who took us to the entrance to the penas blancas river. There we donned lifejackets and were provided with all the necessary safety information and procedures in both Spanish and English. Andres was very knowledgeable and a fun guide to explore the river with. He was happy to answer all of our questions and talk freely about everyday life in Costa Rica. He shared stories and encouraged us all to be completely present in nature while floating down the river. We were able to help paddle the raft and stopped often to explore and learn about various plants, trees, flowers and fauna along the way. We also stopped along the river’s edge to glaze at monkeys playing in the trees. Andres shared histories of Costa Rica and the river itself as we floated along. Overall, we were on the river for about 2 hours. We saw various birds, lizards, bats, monkeys and even a sloth. After the safari float we walked to a nearby family run farm to enjoy fresh coffee and juice along with homemade cheese, desserts and fried plantains. It was a fun,memorable tour while in La Fortuna. I would certainly recommend checking out the various tours offered by Dinghy Expeditions. A family owned company, creating lasting memories and sharing the joy of Pura Vida! Gracias Amigos!
