Highlighted Trips
We offer several different week long river trip options for kayakers, rafters and duckies. Even if you have been to Costa Rica and paddled before, we are always adding new rivers and locations so that we have something unique to offer our friends who have paddled with us 5+ times. There is a reason people come back and paddle with our guides year after year.

Amazing Vacations was started because our guides wanted to offer kayakers the best possible multi-day whitewater paddling experience in Costa Rica.
“I’ve gone on week long trips guided by Walter and Arnoldo on four different occasions. They’re a blast to paddle with. They are personable, knowledgeable, and expert kayakers, able to provide instruction and tips to paddlers of all levels, from basic paddle strokes to surfing skills or creeking moves. They take the hassle out of paddling overseas as they provide an easy, fun, and safety conscious experience. They know the rivers, where to stay and where to eat. I will definitely paddle with them again!”

“I’m a late in life paddler and have only been paddling for a few years and am a Class III to Class III+/IV- boater. I spent a week with Walter on the rivers of Costa Rica and it was one of the best paddling trips of my life. I always felt comfortable with the guides and they were right there to help if you got into trouble.
The guides were great teachers on the river and great support. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to have one of the best paddling trips of their life.”
The learning experience was wonderful. You’ll have a week of intense instruction and I highly recommend the trip to everyone. The country is beautiful and I always felt safe. We had great accommodations. It’s a wonderful experience from top to bottom. I’d go back in a heartbeat and I plan on going back this year.”

“I worried about taking an international trip and also not being in shape for this type of trip. The guides were super aware of the abilities of each person in our group and adjusted the river trip to make sure that the beginner boater had a wonderful time while taking a second group of class III/IV boaters on amazing river runs. The guides were so patient and supportive of everyone. When we were paddling difficult rivers, they still included the beginner kayakers on a raft to ensure they continued to have a great time while staying safe. The logistics couldn’t have been better and everyone had an amazing time.”

“Walter and Arnaldo were great guides on and off the river. They made us feel welcome.”
