This was a fun and a knowledgeable day... we saw so much on this tour and would definitely recommend. (We saw/experienced sloths, waterfalls, local culture/cuisine, volcano, hot springs, and more…)"

"This tour was amazing! The view of the river was stunning and our tour guide Yancy took us to an area where we could see the gradient of the colour changing which looked spectacular. We also saw a range of animals including monkeys. On our way back our tour guide stopped along the road to show us some sloths - definitely one of the highlights of our trip!! I would highly recommend this tour and also requesting Yancy."

"Adrian was a GREAT tour guide full of great information from culture and life experiences that made this trip very fun. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who comes."

"The Crocodile Bridge was very interesting. The beaches at Manual Antonio are spectacular. Lunch overlook the Pacific was very nice. Many "critters" to see inside the park. Park needed some repairs on the railings and a couple of spots were very slick from mud on the pathway, but otherwise a great trail to explore...just be careful of your footing. Highly recommend, but be prepared for a lot of "seat time" to get there and back."

"Wonderful trip with great tour guides. It was the highlight of our Costa Rican vacation. Your bus was new and comfortable. Tour guides were kind and knowledgeable."

"Amazing tour of the La Paz Falls! The falls were spectacular and our tour guide Ronnie did a fantastic job explaining the different types of plants and wildlife at La Paz. Also entertained us with Costa Rica history and fun facts on our way to the falls. We had a small group of 8 people, highly recommend doing this tour!"

"What a wonderful way to see volcanoes from San Jose! Especially during Covid we felt very comfortable in our own private car & tour guide for this excursion. Jose was a fantastic guide with lots of information about everything we were looking at! Besides volcanoes we also stopped at a coffee plantation and the Basilica de Neustra Senora de Los Angeles. The drive was super scenic going through various climates from dwarf to cloud forests. You will have plenty of photo opportunities. Just ask when you see one! It’s worth the extra cost."

"Mr. Filander was an outstanding guide. He was very knowledgeable and was able to answer every question I had. He was personable and helpful with a winning personality. The tour was everything that was described and more. I would highly recommend it. It was also a great value."
