Since our beginnings in 1985 Sustainability runs through our “circulatory system”! Here is a condensed description of our “green being”:

We believe consistent practices, no matter how small our first steps, are more important than waiting to amass a certain investment size for a large-scale project.

By sharing our mission with our clients and communities, participation in our reforestation and land protection efforts improve everyone’s wellbeing and sustainability. Our Sustainable Tourism practices fall into four major categories: Reforestation, Community Projects, Environmental Education and River Conservation programs. #riostropicales #esencialcostarica #essentialcostarica

    My family had an absolute blast on the Pacuare with Rios Tropicales. Our guide Devin was a rockstar, and kept us totally safe. The overnight at their jungle lodge was something totally special about our Costa Rica experience and continues to stand out in my memory. Great company, hard working staff, and incredible rafting. Highly recommend for all families, even with small kids (river dependent). Go Rios Tropicales!
