5.00Had a great trip with Mario! We had great weather and the snorkeling exceeded our expectations. Had a great snack on the beach before our return paddle. I don't know how the kayaking trip could have been better!
Fun and beautiful adventure!

5.00Our kayak tour with Mario was fantastic! He was very kind and shared history and stories of the town and beaches we passed. We saw several wildlife, which was a plus! We are experienced kayakers but if this was our first time, we will feel that we are in good hands. The ocean was very warm and the lunch was a nice treat. We would absolutely book a tour with Mario vs booking with a larger tour company. Our experience felt personable and local. Thanks Mario for the great experience and showing us the beauty of your country, from the ocean!!!
Chill tour with excellent guide.

5.00Mario was amazing! He knew so much and was so helpful as we learned how to get in and out of the Kayak. He brought us to an awesome spot to see fish under water and then to a beautiful beach where he provided snacks and helped us see a sloth! He was so fun to hangout and just chat with. I recommend this experience 100%. Especially because of how awesome Mario was. Theres nothing better than doing something brand new with someone so cool! He was patient and informative!
We left in calm waters,...

5.00We left in calm waters, but returned in rain and rough waters. It was a struggle getting back, but what an adventure! Watch the weather prior to booking!
Totally worth it, rain or shine!

5.00This tour might not be ideal for snorkeling during the rainy season, but it was still absolutely worth it. We didn’t have great visibility underwater, but the Quepos coastline is stunning, the water is warm and pleasant, and you really don’t want to get out. The kayaks were in excellent condition, and my guide did a great job showing me everything possible. Even without perfect conditions, it was a very enjoyable experience.
Great experience even in the rain!

5.00We had such a great time on this tour. Mario was our guide and he made the whole experience fun and memorable. Even though it was raining, we still had a blast exploring and enjoying the adventure. The snack provided was delicious – refried beans with tortilla chips, fresh pineapple, juice, water, cookies, and even jalapeños. Thank you again, Mario, for making it such a wonderful day!
Best day of snorkeling, beach and good company

5.00We had an amazing experience with our guide, Red. From the beginning it made us feel cared for and confident. We set out early on the water, which allowed us to enjoy snorkeling without crowds and explore the place in a private Mood. Afterwards, we were able to relax on the beach while he prepared us some delicious snacks. Red has a very calm and flexible vibe: he gave us extra time to swim and relax, without rush. In addition, we shared very interesting conversations about tourism and the development of the area, which made the experience even more enriching. In short, it was a perfect and personalized outing. I recommend Red 100% to anyone looking for something authentic, relaxed and well cared for!

5.00Very good experience, would definitely recommend while traveling in Manuel Antonio area. He showed us all of the major beaches and gave us some history on the area. Also gave us lots of information about the surrounding wildlife. He even allowed us to reschedule our tour to the following day due to the water not being very clear. Very friendly and a great guide, 10/10 recommend.
