About Us

Tropical Rivers & Adventure Tours was established in early 2021 after the close of the pioneering rafting and adventure company Rios Tropicales. Ana Patricia Quesada, longtime Rios Tropicales Director of Marketing and Sales, and her husband, Gustavo Madrigal, a former Rios Tropicales raft guide and successful businessman, created Tropical Rivers to continue Rios Tropicales’ 35-year legacy of high-quality professional rafting and adventure tours in Costa Rica.

When Rios Tropicales closed in February 2021 due to multiple factors, CEO Rafael Gallo gave Tropical Rivers & Adventure Tours his highest endorsement. Ana Patricia and Gustavo are proud to continue the traditions of top safety and excellent customer service and to serve the thousands of clients and partners they’ve come to know over three decades, along with new friends.

They are delighted to continue bringing joy and adventure to people while sharing the astonishing beauty of Costa Rica’s rivers and rainforest.
