Informative and fun - We were staying in Puerto Viejo for a week and realised it's a very interesting place. We booked this tour to learn more about it - and got exactly what we imagined! The guide Esteban walked with us for two hours and told us all about the history, the people, the nature and geology. We learned many interesting things and loved getting the perspective of someone local. Esteban also shared some tips and also pointed out the animals and interesting plants along the way. I fully recommend this tour, to be able to appreciate the magic of Puerto Viejo.

Super recommend! - The tour was really complete; Esteban did not let any details pass and gave me a lot of information about the history of Puerto Viejo. It was an enriching and very well guided experience, which allowed me to get to know the culture and environment of the area. Also, Pamela's attention to make the reservation was impeccable, always very friendly and efficient. I definitely recommend it!

A must-do to understand this small paradise - I had a great time on the historical tour in Puerto Viejo—it’s definitely a must-do if you’re visiting. It’s a great way to get a real feel for the place and learn about its unique mix of cultures. My guide was awesome, super knowledgeable and easy to talk to, and made the whole experience really interesting. I left with a much better understanding of the area and its history.
