White water rafting companies on the Pacuare River

We plan on rafting down the Pacuare River and then using some company to help us cross the Panama border to get to Bocas del Toro. Any information on which white water rafting companies are good - or more importantly, which ones to avoid, would be helpful. We would be taking our trip at the end of July, 2012.

We used Rios Tropicales for the Sarapiqui and thought they were great.

Another vote for Rios Tropicales. We rafted with then twice (Reventazon and Tinto). Excellent guides

We will have a 12 year old with us and Rios Tropicales states that children must be 14 years old. Any other suggestions?

Desafio is another excellent company. I know they operate in the Arenal area; you could check to see if they do the Pacuare.
