Upon completion of your riding adventure, you will embark on a one-hour boat tour of the Tarcoles River, home to one of the largest populations of the giant American crocodile. Your boat captain will navigate the special riverboats along the Tarcoles River where you can spot the resident reptiles basking on the banks. Get an up-close yet very safe view of these spectacular creatures. Do not forget your camera for your hour-long boat adventure.

Upon completion of your excellent adventures, you will return directly to your Puerto Caldera cruise port. This is a unique experience and you'll have tons of stories to tell!
