The Pacuare Jungle Lodge, Costa Rica
Description
From the beginning, the Pacuare Lodge has been actively managed by Costa Rica Nature Adventures, Costa Rica’s premier adventure tour operator. Founded in 1986, our company is one of the oldest and most respected tour operators in Costa Rica. A pioneer in the field of adventure travel, we offer a wide variety of services that include hotel accommodation, car rentals, white water rafting and some of the finest tours this country has to offer. Additionally, we specialize in customized itineraries that include everything from thrilling canopy adventures to romantic honeymoon escapades, specifically catered to our customer’s needs, interests and budget. We are fully licensed by the Costa Rican Institute of Tourism, and our products and services are backed by years of experience working with a wide range of discerning customers. We pride ourselves on quality tours that stand above the majority of adventure tours offered in Costa Rica, on exceeding our customer’s expectations, and ensuring that every tour is entertaining, informative and utterly unique.
The Pacuare Lodge was built with a minimum impact on the river and rainforest site where it is located. Lanterns and candles provide light, as there is no electricity at the lodge. No trees were cut to build the bungalows and main lodge. Lumber was purchased from a sustainable reforestation project operated by small farmers. The roofs are made from palm leaves installed by Cabecar Indians living in the area using their traditional style. Near the lodge we have purchased nearly 30 hectares of primary rainforest that was in danger of being cleared. Because our goal is to preserve this untouched virgin forest, no visitors are allowed in this area.
We believe responsible tourism should benefit and respect local communities. Our Community Support Program works directly with the people and institutions in communities near the Pacuare River put-in and our lodge. Infrastructure in these isolated areas is scarce and poorly maintained by the government. A percentage of each reservation made by Internet is donated directly to the three primary schools located along the Pacuare River between Tres Equis and Siquirres. We also accept donations for the schools, which are transferred in their entirety to the school boards (no administrative or other fees are deducted), who use the funds for much-needed materials and student services. For larger donations by people going on one of our overnight Pacuare trips, we will arrange a personal visit on horseback to the Bajo del Tigre School to meet the teacher and schoolchildren.
