Classy Management

5.00I had originally booked the full day Nicaragua tour, but I had an unfortunate situation and was unable to access my passport from my hotel security box the night before the tour. It would not have been possible to enter Nicaragua without my passport, so I had no choice other to cancel going on the tour last minute. In no way was Native's Way responsible for my misfortune, but after exchanging a few emails the next day with the Native's Way management, they were kind enough to comp me a spot on the Sunset Cruise that day instead. They didn't need to comp me anything, but they did and I thought that showed a lot of class from the management to help me. I hope next time I will be able to go on the full day Nicaragua tour, but I still had a great time that day on the Sunset Cruise. Thank you Native's Way, you made a case of misfortune turn out all right that day.
Enjoyable Afternoon

5.00Short sail to a private beach around the point. Snorkeling was decent, saw several varieties of fish. Drinks were served throughout the trip. Food was good and the crew was very friendly. Ends with the sunset.

5.00The crew & the Costa Rican food were amazing. Had a great experience on the boat & they timed it so we could be aboard for the sunset. We had an impromptu dance party. I don’t drink, but the cocktails flowed & there was plenty of ice & water & nonalcoholic beverages. The boat is very comfortable for the 25 or so guests aboard. The crew is extremely friendly & very professional. You’ll want to tip these guys generously.
Wonderful trip

5.00We had a great trip! We loved the double front hammocks and the boat was very nice with lots of seating options. The staff made the trip an exceptional experience making sure we were comfortable. Francisco was amazing. He helped my daughter who felt a little sea sick and he was our snorkeling guide helping us find amazing places to see marine life. He even taught my daughter how to dive down and she was able to see star fish, a puffer fish, an octopus among several other amazing sights. We even drove right next to a sea turtle on our return. Really pleased with our experience.
