The best boat tour and experience ever!! I highly recommend.

5.00This experience was beyond amazing! We did the tour with just our family/friends. The tour was absolutely beautiful and the men who worked our boat were phenomenal and so kind. We had an amazing calm ride over to a reef to snorkel, followed by a delicious fresh lunch cooked on the boat, and ending with a peaceful ride back. It was a 1000/10 experience and I highly recommend it! Chris was so helpful with our allergies and ensuring the experience was perfect.

5.00Went with a group of girls to Costa Rica. Was so great to have Ernesto to drive us and give us local tips. He was super friendly and made us feel safe and well accommodated. We took the Playgrounds Catamaran out for an afternoon. Originally booked 4 hours but we extended to 6 because the crew was so great and the food and drinks were awesome. Drove right up alongside humpback whales. Definitely would recommend doing this.

5.00Denise with Xolore Costa Rica was a fantastic addition to our trip! Her communication was incredible. Never more than a few minutes to get a response. She set up our airport transfers, which were on time, informative, and fun. She also arranged for a sunset private catamaran tour with Ti Marouba. Let me tell you, these folks take you on a Great trip. They use the sails the majority of the time if the wind allows, which gives such a better experience that vibrating engines and diesel fumes. Nothing but the sound of the waves. They prepare great drinks. And they are constantly showing you a great time. They will Point out wildlife. They will even put out two rods and let you catch fish! Nobody does that. We caught three fish and they filleted them on the deck and served it up fresh on the spot. AmazinglyDelicious. Doesn’t get any fresher than that! No experience needed. Our wives felled in the fish and had a blast. Such an entertaining day. We have been on 60+ catamaran tours, and this was one of our favorite in the whole world. The guys who run this boat love their job and it shows. Could not ask for a better afternoon. If you are going to Costa Rica, make sure you use Denise and Xplore Costa Rica for everything from airport transfers, to atv tours, to catamaran sunset cruises, she can arrange it all at the drop of a hat, so don’t look anywhere else. Pura Vida
Chartered the private catamaran - The Playground

5.00Amazing. We chartered the Catamaran for 4 people, for 1/2 day. We choose the 2nd half of the day so we could watch the sunset. I would recommend this to anyone. We had a great time. The boat is beautiful, plenty of room, the staff was great. We jet skied and paddled boarded. Captain Peter was watching to ocean for wild life. We saw a Manta Ray the size of a car, schools of dolphins, turtles, we saw schools of fish feeding on other fish. Truly amazing experience that you would never have seen without a private boat and a crew that knows what to look for. We had Captain Peter and Kevin on our boat and we couldn't of asked for better people. This is a must do in Costa Rica. Its worth every penny. True life experience
