Between the 8 in our group staying at the Riu Palace, we booked 4 excursions ahead of time with Freddy Campos. Communication was great, the drivers made us feel safe (even on the crazy roads), and all of our tour guides were super friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. They all really went out of their way to make sure we all had a good time. Here is my review for each tour: One day Nicaragua tour- When people tell you it is only a 2 hour drive from Riu to Nicaragua, they are telling the truth. However, it is important to note that once you reach the border, you will be spending quite a bit of time in the van still. We were gone from the resort for 18 hours, with only about 4 hours outside of the van. Yes, you read that correctly. Mind you, everything we saw in Nicaragua was stunning. The water volcano was beautiful, the active volcano was priceless, the town of Granada we toured had amazing architecture, breakfast and lunch were delicious and we all loved the boat ride where we saw numerous islands, monkeys and lots of cool looking birds. It was just a LOT of driving. Was it worth it? That’s up to you, but I personally would not do this again. I truly loved everything we saw and our guides were perfect, but we spent very little time at each spot and I was stir crazy in the van by the end of the day. Sunset Trimaran- Those of us that did this one had a great time. The boat picks you up on the beach right near the Riu. They lower a ramp for you to get on the boat, so even those with walking difficulties have no issues getting on. We went to a little island for our base to go snorkeling. My daughter and I saw several sea turtles, puffer fish, eel, a stingray and many colorful fish. We loved it! If we ever make it back to Costa Rica, I would do this one again. Nighttime rainforest- We did a slightly customized nighttime rainforest tour with Freddy. We added on a tour of a pineapple farm to his standard nighttime tour. This was BY FAR my favorite tour we took in Costa Rica. The whole day was great. We saw a baby sloth, toucans, monkeys, frogs, various birds, did a coffee tour, pineapple farm tour and went to a great waterfall. However, the highlight of the day was walking through the rainforest at night. Wow. It was spectacular. We saw snakes, tons of frogs, thousands of ants carrying leaves, strange looking insects and best of all….Tapirs! We walked within feet of a mama tapir and her baby. The rainforest really is different at night. At one point, the guide has us all turn off our flashlights and just stand there quietly in the pitch dark for a minute. What a great experience. If you only have time for one excursion, this would be the one I would recommend, hands down. Riverboat & rum tour- I did not go on this one, but four in our group did this with Freddy. I can’t say much about it since I didn’t go, but they all said they saw so much wildlife and the boat was relaxing. They only had good things to say about this trip and the pictures I saw looked very cool.

We had an amazing 7 days with Freddy's Experiences! We booked our whole vacation with him and he didnt dissapoint! He provided airport pickup and drop off and 4 tours with excellent guides! (Neme, Rei and himself) We didnt have to rent a car or worry about driving in a new country w 2 children. He was very professional and accomodating. The Volcano tour was our highlight with the hanging bridges! A must see! Good hiking boots are a good idea, especially in the rainy season. We highly recommend Freddy for all your transport and tours in Costa Rica!

The tour was awesome! Rey is absolutely the best. If you book with Freddy, I would request Reiner as your guide. You will not be disappointed. We were picked up at 6:30 am at the Westin, spent the day with Rey, horseback riding, hiking, watching so much wildlife! The volcano was really cool, the mud bath, sauna and natural hot springs were a lot of fun, but we stunk like sulfur for days afterwards, no matter how much we washed. LOL Lunch was delicious! The hanging bridges were really cool. Our family of six thoroughly enjoyed the day with Rey.
A must do!! Ask for Neme!

This was hands-down the highlight of our entire trip to Costa Rica! From start to finish, the tour was seamless, adventurous, and incredibly personal. Our guide, Freddy, was knowledgeable, kind, and passionate about the land he made us feel like VIPs the entire day. We explored everything: horseback riding through open fields, hiking to breathtaking waterfalls, crossing high suspension bridges in the jungle canopy, relaxing in natural hot springs, and even spotting some amazing wildlife (we saw a rare, camouflaged snake up close!). Every moment was magical. What really made this experience stand out was how private and customized it felt just the two of us and Freddy. He gave us space to enjoy but was always close by to share local insights and ensure we were safe and having fun. If you’re looking for an authentic Costa Rican adventure that mixes nature, adrenaline, and relaxation book this tour. Worth every penny!
Freddy Campos Is The Best!

We did three tours with Freddy Campos; Volcano, Rainforest and ATV. All three were customized to our liking and were amazing! Freddy is the most knowledgeable tour guide who truly cares about the animals and his homeland! Freddy is kind, attentive and compassionate. His tours are wonderful and truly open your eyes to the beauty of Costa Rica! Book with Freddy, he is the best!

My husband and I booked a tour with Freddy's Experiences on Jan 27, 2025 and had an amazing time! Our guide Kevin was extremely knowledgeable about the functioning eco system, history, and overall vision of Costa Rica. Each stop we visited along the way was packed with wonderful experiences from howler monkeys to blue butterflies and volcanoes to waterfalls! Kevin educated us on each aspect of every place we went and truly gave us a wide breath of information about the country's culture and customs. Purely amazing!
Memorable day !!!

This truly was a great experience. The weather was terrible and it is still going to be my favourite memory from the trip. The tour guide was so positive and took extra steps to make this experience exceptional. Beautiful scenery , hanging bridges , waterfalls , a delicious Costa Rican lunch then volcanic mud baths and hot springs. You get to experience a little bit of everything. Less of a commercial tour, you really feel the culture and atmosphere of the people. Highly recommend!!!!! We even stopped many times on the drive in to see animals.
