Great trip & amazing guide! - We took 4 day trips with summer travel and they were all amazing. Irazu is other worldly and almost indescribable. You can walk along the rim of the 3 craters and even walk into one of them. The stop in Cartago was very interesting and the Basilica is beautiful. Lunch at a typical Costa Rican restaurant was very good and came with a beautiful view. Our guide, Lenny was extremely knowledgeable and funny. All in all, it was a great trip. Summer Travel has great customer service and we highly recommend working with them.

Superb tour, highly recommended - This is a great choice for a Tour, a must-see attraction. Irazu volcan and the Cathedral are great. The views from the mountains are excellent. The tour departs early but it's because it's better to arrive in the morning to those areas. Highly recommended.

Good half-day trip with return transportation - Both the guide and the driver are very friendly, the distances are 1 or 2 hours but they tell you stories about the history of Costa Rica or the place. The guide is bilingual and has a very good level of English.

A tour you must do - We really enjoyed this tour. It was very informative Mr. Hayro was out tour guide. He was very knowledgeable, spoke very fluent english and was very patient to answer our questions. We also like that druring the entire ride on the way to the varios desitinations he told us so many stories sbout the history and culture of Costa Rica and showed us important buildings. We visited the Angels church, the volcano and we had delicious lunch at a restaurant after which we were brought back to our hotel. If you are coming to San Jose you definitely should do this tour.

Nice Half Day Tour - We enjoyed visiting the crater at Irazú National Park. The clouds lifted and we were fortunate to have a great view. The Basilica of Los Angeles was also a nice place to visit.
