Amazing Day in Puerto Limon

5.00Can’t give high enough praise to our tour guide Anah. Not only is her knowledge of Costa Rica culture top tier, but she goes the extra mile to make your trip special. Took pictures of our group throughout the day and shared them free of additional charge. After an amazing time spotting wildlife on the canals and zip lining through the jungle, she took us to a local beach. She helped us navigate the menu and order at a beachside restaurant resulting in some delicious local food. They were flexible even though our ship arrived late. And still managed to fit all the day’s activities in and made sure we made it back to our ship with time to spare! 10’s across the board!
Amazing! Best day with the best guides!

5.00We had an amazing time with our guide, Yen, and our driver, Alex! They showed us so much about the city, surrounding area, culture, agriculture etc. and were so much fun! Our canal ride was very good and we saw numerous howler monkeys, sloths, crocodiles and caimans in addition to many bird species. The guide was great at pointing out things and explaining what we were seeing. Ziplining was a blast and the crew there were so professional and kind. We got to try some of the fruits and coffee of Costa Rica too. Everything about our tour was exceptional. We were sad to say goodbye to our new friends at the end! Thanks Yen and Alex for a tour to remember!
Zip Line was Amazing!!

5.00My friends and husband told me they would try a zip line, if I would . Boy! Did we pick the right one!!! Everyone had a fabulous time and the guides were superb! Jose was our guide on the island and we had a nice boat ride on the canal and a short trip to a banana plantation. Those two were fine, but the zip line will be with us forever! It was thrilling, but without fear. Those guys were real pros and what a ride! The zip line was high, long and fast. Well worth every cent!
I must do in Costa Rica

5.00Our tour guide Rich and our driver Marvin were amazing. We felt safe the whole time. Zip line was very safe and secure, Rich went above and beyond to make sure we saw animals and took pictures for us. I must do in Costa Rica.
Amazing!

5.00Reyshelin (I forgot how to spell her name) or Shey was our tour guide and she was amazing! We had an amazing time during this tour and Shey showed us around Puerto Limon. She asked what we would like to experience and we each got to do what we wanted to do/see! It was an incredible experience and we loved every second! Highly recommend this excursion!

4.00Trip was a full day despite half day booking which was fine with us but plan accordingly. Comfortable rides from place to place and loved zip line and beach. Canal ride was disappointing as we didn’t see much. Tour guide seemed a little inexperienced and struggled with English.
Great Experience!

5.00We had an excellent time on our tour! It was very easy to find our guide once we got off the ship. Our tour guide, Ian, was very knowledgable and friendly. The boat tour was super fun and we were able to see sloths, howler monkeys, a crocodile with babies, and several types of birds and lizards. Ziplining was super fun and stunning! We also saw sloths, howler monkeys, and iguanas while ziplining. Our tour guide gave us the option of going to the beach or a small banana plantation/botanic garden and we chose to go to the latter which was very cool. Ian showed us all of the different plants and explained the export of bananas. There was also a gift shop with free coffee samples and lots of cool trinkets. Overall an excellent tour. We were shocked that it was a private tour with just the two of us and a guide. An excellent value for the price. Only thing I would say is make sure to clarify ahead of time what time you are supposed to meet your guide as it can be confusing if ship time is different than local time.
