Wonderful hike Nd swim! - What a wonderful trip. José our guide and Marvin our driver were awesome. Jose knows his stuff and his stories about what his grandfather taught him were worth the trip alone. The lunch was fantastic and a wonderful way to finish the trip. Highly recommend this trip - and request José and Marvin - years of local knowledge and very safe and welcoming accommodations.

A full-day seeing natural Costa Rica - Leon and Melany were fantastic guides. We were picked up right from our hotel and along the drive they shared facts about CR and what we would be seeing. They were engaging and personable. Our bus divided into groups and Melany led our hanging bridges tour- pointed out all types of wildlife. Her knowledge was extensive and interesting. She carried a high-powered scope and when we looked thru, the birds and monkeys were crystal clear. She was able to capture these creatures with out mobile phones thru the scope!! Kevin walked with our group to the waterfall. The power of the falls was impressive and chilly. He walked and supported the group as we climbed back up. The fresh watermelon and pineapple was a surprise treat after the bridges tour. Lunch afterwards was authentic, delicious and in a beautiful setting. We all had a fabulous day!!

Highly recommend a private tour! Ask for Andres - Highly recommend Jacamar and the private tour option! We booked a combo Hike & Nature tour along with zip-lining for our family of 4. Our tour guide on the canopy tour hike, Andres, was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable, taught us a ton about the rain forest, and made the hike fun. Andres pointed out several animals that we would have walked by without notice. I would not do the tour without a guide like Andres.

Jacamar Tours excellent way to see the Hanging Bridges and La Fortuna Waterfall. - Jacamar tours made seeing the hanging bridges and La Fortuna Waterfall in Costa Rica so fun and easy. The shuttles are very nice, comfortable, and clean. The tour guides are very informative and pointed out wildlife that we would've never seen on our own. Being picked up at our resort and dropped off at the entrance to the tours was phenomenal. We felt very well taken care of. I would definitely recommend using Jacamar tour guides when visiting any of the local sightseeing areas.

Jungle Adventure - The guide (Jason) was great, and very good at finding birds and animals during our adventure. He also made sure we got great pictures and was very knowledgeable of the animals and jungle plants. The lunch was a perfect ending to the day.

Amazing jungle experience - The whole experience was a delight from beginning to end. Our guide arrived early, and was very knowledgeable and pointed out so many wildlife that we would have walked right past without even noticing. The hanging bridges walk felt immersive, giving us the opportunity to truly experience the jungle. La Fortuna waterfall was stunning and provided a great opportunity to cool off after the hike, with even more opportunity to see wildlife and learn more from our guide. Finally, the included lunch was some of the best and most authentic food we have had in our time in Costa Rica. Truly cannot recommend jacamar tours enough.
