Unforgettable! - Gabrielā€™s Tour and Guide Harold made the experience unforgettable! He took us on a great two hour plus hike around the volcano and pointed out all the amazing animals we wouldnā€™t have seen.

Easy, no-brainer, just book it you wonā€™t regret it - Whatā€™s great experience. The booking and pre tour communication was excellent. When Pablo picked us up, we could immediately tell he was going to be great. You just canā€™t compare having a private driver and guide all day to anything else. He was personable, friendly, and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

Had a blast! Learned a lot! - I canā€™t say enough nice things about Gabriel and the day we spent visiting the volcano, waterfall and hot springs. He is so very kind and knowledgeable. We did not feel rushed at all at each place we visited. He even arranged for a slice of cake for my husband at lunch only minutes after finding out it was his birthday. We really enjoyed spending the day with him. Donā€™t hesitate to book this tour, you wonā€™t be disappointed.

Fantastic! - Gabriel was an excellent tour giude. He was so knowledgeable and passionate about the Costa Rican nature and wildlife. He showed us monkeys, toucans, iguanas and more. The lunch buffet was a tasty traditional Coata Rican feast. The waterfall was breathtaking and the hot springs were a perfect way to end the experience. I highly recommend this excursion to anyoneā€”especially with Gabriel.

Best Private Rincon de la Vieja National Park Tour! - Look no further! This is the tour to book! Gabriel was an AMAZING tour guide and a wonderful person. A private tour like this one gives you the flexibility to have the day exactly as you want it. We were hungry so instead of going directly to the waterfall after the hike, we decided to go eat first. Gabriel was gracious and accommodating even if it took us extra time to go out of the park to eat and then back to the waterfall. He was so knowledgeable about the volcano and all the nature surrounding it - pointing out things we would have just walked by and calling out to the birds and monkeys to get them to appear. He is also an AMAZING photographer and took the best pics of us and the volcano (some of them were in slo-motion which was so cool). He also shared so much info about Costa Rica, the people, the culture, etc. It's clear he's proud of his country. The waterfall stop and swim was breathtaking and the hot springs/mud were so much fun and not to be missed. Gabriel never rushed us and let us stay as long as we wanted at each stop. We even stopped at the big Souvenir store in Liberia for coffee/chocolate sampling and a little shopping. I would not skip that stop :) All in all it was a 10 hour day, and worth every minute. Definitely book this trip with Gabriel for an unforgettable day in Costa Rica!!

Beautiful and educational, but watch your clocks - The overall day was very fulfilling and excellent! Our guided hike started a little late and went on for longer than we anticipated, so we ultimately did not get around to swimming at the waterfall included in this trip. Instead we went to another small waterfall near the hot springs and took a quick dip, then went to the hot springs for a little bit. It was a bit disappointing not being able to stop where we were suppose to, with the time we were suppose to, but the hike really was magnificent and we saw lots of wildlife and amazing flora!

Great hot springs - Originally we booked Volcano-Waterfall and Hot Springs Combo ( Private). The tour guide ā€œPubloā€ has changed the please to waterfall and hot springs. We have not seen the volcano side at all. He took us short trip and spending more time in restaurants and shopping. Donā€™t like when the tour guide changes the original booking. I will demand for money back.
