Don’t miss the La Paz Waterfalls and Gardens - A fantastic tour! Even though the Poas Volcano wasn’t visible due rain and fog it was still a great experience. The La Paz Waterfalls are powerful and majestic. The Gardens were the highlight of the trip. We saw an amazing collection of animals (all of them are rescues) in a serene setting. The gardens had monkeys, reptiles, amphibians, sloths, all kinds of jungle cats ( including a jaguar), exotic birds and butterflies that we would not have been able to see otherwise. The lunch was delicious as well. Highly recommend this tour.

Worth a Look - Despite it being too cloudy to see the crater's volcano, we very much enjoyed the tour. The Waterfall Gardens had many animals and birds to see, and the waterfalls themselves were quite picturesque. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, and spoke English very well. Be prepared for long travel times, as the roads can be slow if you end up behind large trucks or buses making frequent stops.

Breathtaking and stunning - This experience was incredible. The care from Nuria and Edgar was wonderful. The falls were breathtaking and worth the many stairs. The volcano was hard to see due to cloud cover but we got a couple of good photos when the clouds broke. No lagoon for us as the volcano had erupted with hot gases and heat the month before our visit. It was still an interesting site to see. Lots of flora and fauna. Meal at La Paz Waterfalls was plentiful and nice variety. The animal preserve was so much fun and very well maintained. The toucans and hummingbirds were flying around us..one word WOW.

Great Experience with Scott - Took a private tour with my sister and had Christian Scott as our tour guide. He was absolutely fantastic!! Right on time to pick us up, very friendly, so knowledgeable about Costa Rica. It was certainly a long day and a lot of driving, but he handled it like a champ and made sure my sister and I were enjoying ourselves throughout the entire time. Would 100% recommend!!
