Very informative - We were brought to visualize and be informed about many plants and animals local to CR. Our driver did an amazing job in explaining and taking pictures of everything of interest. He was extremely friendly and worth every penny.

Great day with a variety of fantastic activities. Don't miss this opportunity if you are in the area. - Great 10 hour day. Our tour guide Gabriel was the best. He was so helpful and knowledgeable about the areas we traveled to. He was extremely flexible if we wanted to stop and hit a couple souvenir shops. We went to the Catarata Llanos del Cortes waterfall. Spectacular. There a a couple guys there that will do some fancy and incredible photos and videos using your phone. They don't ask for a tip, but you would be a creep if you didn't pay them. The videos they make are creative and fun. We swam in the waterfall, then headed to the Volcanoes. The scenery is fantastic. On our way, Gabriel stopped at a stand where they were selling fruit and breads. He purchased some pineapple for us. No kidding, there is no pineapple I have ever tasted that was as sweet and juicy as this one. I purchased a flat bread made with a honey coating. It was called elephant ear bread because it resembles that. What a treat. So delicious. We ate it in the van, then on our way back, had to stop and purchase more, it was so dang good. We went and swam in the blue river. The most beautiful river I have ever seen. A slight smell of sulfur, but that is to be expected since it is from the volcanoes. Next we ate a delicious meal at a family restaurant. We had a choice of meats. The food was so good, and the pineapple juice was the best. We then headed to the nature walk. Our guide there was able to spot and point out glass, red eyed, and poison dart frogs as well as a eyelash pit viper. We also saw enormous squirrels, and a big sloth and small sloth. Our guide also had a great scope to point out Toucans and gray hawks. We saw the smallest bees and leaf cutter ants. Our guide also took some great pics for us with our cameras. I would highly recommend this tour. It does not disappoint. There is not a lot of strenuous hiking with this tour. It was quite relaxing and informative.

A wonderful day in beautiful Guanacaste - Our tour guide Miller was great! He was so friendly and knowledgeable, and he made an effort to learn what we were interested in seeing. The different sites we saw were very special, and everyone we encountered was kind and professional. I would definitely recommend!

Amazing day with an amazing tour guide! - Our guide Eddy was incredible. He made us feel like family right from the start. He was waiting for us at the hotel entrance and made my daughter and I feel super comfortable. He is very proud of his country and taught us so much about this beautiful place. We swam at the waterfall, saw sloths, blue jean frogs, an eyelash viper, stingless bees, and leaf cutter ants. Even a rainbow eucalyptus tree which was stunning. We had an incredible lunch with the best food we had in Costa Rica so far at La Amistad. We stopped at a souvenir place, saw and swam in the Rio Celeste and the day ended with the one thing we had requested…..monkeys!!! We saw them on the drive back. He pulled over and gave us lots of time to ooh and ahh over them. So cool!!! Eddy was freelancing with this company for the day and he has his own tour company as well called Ready Eddy haha. I highly recommend this tour and most especially Eddy. He made sure we understood that we now have a friend in Costa Rica ❤️.

This is an amazing tour to see some beautiful and very special things in Costa Rica! - What a perfect way to spend in Costa Rica! Our guide Carlos was amazing and knowledgeable! He went out of his way to make our experience very personal did not rush us through any part of the tour. He stopped at roadside stands to get fresh fruit and took us time showing and telling us all he know on our trek through the sloth sanctuary- finding animals and taking great pictures! Carlos know so much about his home country and loves to share and educate others! There were so many great things about the day we spent with Carlos! Too many to list- but everything, everything was just perfect !

Pretty good - The tour guide, Eddie Rojas was fantastic and knowledgeable and made the trip. The sloth/jungle tour was (too) short. The waterfall was neat. The river wasn’t great. Lunch was good.
