Best tour guide in Costa Rica - Cheton and Leo (hope that no spelling mistake) is a very good guide and driver. Such a knowledgeable and informative guide. We are lucky to see the clear crafter and take many good photos in some beautiful places. We can strongly feel that the guide really try to take care each tourist. We love this country because of them. You should not miss this tour, 100% recommend.

Ronnie was are guide and did an outstanding job - Ronnie was are guide and did an outstanding job. He had outstanding knowledge of the area and was very patient in answering our questions. He showed us great restaurants at Barrio Escalante that we ate at later

Worth the Money - I was the only person who had signed up, so it was a private tour. Everything was my own pace and Tour guide was knowledgable

On an adventure with friendly people - Josè the tour guide was excellent. Always offered to take my picture and always prioritized showing me the best views. Safe driver, knowledgeable, and good English. Could not recommend any more highly! 😎

Irazu Volcano,Orosi Valley Tour - Excellent guide, unforgettable experience, very well organised tour,everything ás previously descrbed and more,definitely recommended!

Perfect day trip from San Jose with a lot of variety!! - Ricardo was our amazing host for the Irazu tour. We picked a day with a bad accident in San Jose and traffic was crazy. As a result, the company split our group so as not to delay the tour. Two of us were lucky to get a private tour with Ricardo. We started with a beautiful drive up to the Irazu volcano and National Park through beautiful countryside and farmland (once you escape the city). The park is at high altitude and even in the sun it was cold - definitely requires a sweater/coat and ideally long pants. There is no ‘Green lake’ in the crater these days - just the volcanic ash/rock and grass growing in one of the 3 craters - but great views. The next stop is the old capital city of Cartago with its stunning Catholic church. Spectacular detail inside which is a stark contrast to the clean, white, Byzantine exterior. Lunch was in the Orosi valley which we stopped to take photos of on the way down and on our return. Stunning orange blooms on the poró trees made the views even more beautiful. Great lunch - a very traditional Costa Rican dish of rice, vegetables, and plantains with fish, chicken or steak. The plantain ceviche starter was my favorite part and the Cas fruit juice was really good. Final stop was the Lancaster Botanical Gardens - home to an array of plants including a phenomenal collection of or bids (Which Lancaster devoted his life to study and preserve). A great day trip and you won't go wrong if you get Ricardo - he is a wealth of knowledge on CR history, geology, and plants.…. The list goes on!

A great small group tour - Purposely booked on a small tour for a break and wasn't disappointed. 4 other people on the tour along with Alberto our guide. We were lucky with the cloud at the top of Irazu that cleared just after arriving and so had a good time exploring there. There was a lower level of cloud that meant far reaching views weren't possible, but it was still impressive. The basilica at Cartago was interesting, a service was in progress so couldn't explore it too much. The botanical gardens of Lankester were a peaceful stop and some of the orchids were really impressive. Finished with a short trip to Orosi and the church there. All in all a really good day and very well organised.

Beautiful Orosi and awe-inspiring Irazu - I do wish we had been able to explore more of Cartago City and it's ruins, but this was still a great tour and lucky me - I got a private guide because I was the only person who signed up from south San Jose that day! Unfortunately the dry season has been so hot and dry that there was no water in the crater, but it's still a beautiful and interesting area. Again, I wish I had been able to go to the viewpoint but the guide's car was not a 4x4. Orosi Valley was the highlight - the beautiful damn, hanging bridge, spectacular views, and gorgeous greenery.

Very good tour of small town Costa Rica and the volcano - Such a unique and different side of Costa Rica and I recommend folks take this trip. Loved walking around the volcano crater shrouded in fog and seeing the Orosi valley coffee plantations at a distance and getting to experience small town Costa Rica. Episode have been a 5/5 if it wasn’t raining.

Decidedly mixed - The Irazu Volcano was very special. Arturo the guide was interesting, and Andreas the driver was superb. However, we signed up for an English tour and we got a mix of English/Spanish guide (there were both English and Spanish speakers and the guide had to repeat everything in both languages). Also, the tour was advertised to last six hours and ended up lasting twelve hours. We were the first to get picked up and the last to be dropped. Extremely frustrating.
