Alex and Julio Carlos were absolutely amazing. We are a family of 5 including 2 elderly and a walker. They were lovely, knowledgeable, nice and professional. We saw so many animals and enjoy the trip a lot. They charged much less than the other companies in the resort and they’d service was better. Highly recommend. Very reliable
An experience of a lifetime! We definitely recommend Alex if you want to experience a real taste of Costa Rica!

Tour par excellence! Alex took us on a day journey immersing us in the natural tropical beauty of Costa Rica - stunning waterfall with vibrant butterflies, a river cruise defying time with huge iguanas, crocodiles and monkeys, and a jungle trek graced with sloths, toucans and tree frogs. As we drove, Alex discussed Costa Rican history, regional weather idiosyncrasies and how its creatures adapt to their environment. Alex customizes his tours to suit your preferences. If you want to explore Costa Rica, 🇨🇷 Alex is your man. With gratitude: Cathy Rae Smith & Sherry Rhoades, December 2025

Alex took us out on the Tempisque River to see a variety of wildlife from crocodiles, monkeys and many species of birds. He even convinced the boat captain to stay on the water abit longer so I could do some fishing (had my own gear). Then took us for lunch at a nearby ranch. 10/10 highly recommended.
