Spend a night in the forest beside the Agujitas River—hike through primary rainforest, sleep in hammocks or tents, and float downstream on a mellow tubing section. This two-day, one-night tour blends wildlife viewing with hands-on river time.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You arrive by boat or dusty road as the rainforest leans close, green trunks breathing humidity; the Agujitas River hisses in the understory, daring you to strip off boots and float. Guides meet you at a small office, hand over the day’s rhythm, and lead into a patchwork of trails where roots and rivulets set the pace.
