Imagine going back in time and canoeing to meet a real family living on a river island, a natural paradise just 40 minutes away from Puerto Viejo, undeveloped and pristine.
Dennis will hand-paddle his large canoe and take you on a beautiful wildlife sightseeing journey close to the Caribbean Sea and upstream to his home, tucked in the middle of a hidden island gem. You will meet his wife, Carol, and, when not at school, their two lovely children. I am sure this will be your most delicious lunch in Costa Rica.
This tour is designed for those who love nature and good-hearted people. It does not belong to any company, and despite their very limited English, I am sure your heart will feel at home. All proceeds go directly to Dennis and his family.
Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. Suitable for all physical fitness levels
Coming from Puerto Viejo (the sea is on your right) drive past the Sloth Sanctuary for 1.7 km and turn right. Continue until you find a rustic deck. Dennis will be waiting for you at the agreed time.
