It is already the third year that I book this experience of Peninsula of Life with Vámonos Costa Rica Tours. Coincidentally, the guide has always been Aurora and from the first time her work has been excellent. His knowledge and experience are becoming more remarkable, but his warmth as a person is the most remarkable thing: accessible at all times to tourists, friendly treatment, patience when required and a sense of impressive responsibility. Driver Ronald has his merits, too. A helpful and attentive person who always helped us get on and off the bus, offering us all alike a friendly treatment. And also, your experience as tourist conduits is rating as the trip felt pleasant, quiet and safe. Also mention that on the three occasions I have booked this experience the tourist advisor has been Emilio. Since the first time, he has been of quality, responding attentively and in detail to each of the queries asked. In short, Vámonos Costa Rica Tours is a trusted agency and it gives me the assurance that whatever experience you book will always be of quality.
Excellent and unique experience

I went to celebrate my daughter's birthday, celebrating life on the Peninsula of life. A beautiful experience. Excellent organization and travel by professionals: Aurora and Adolf. Delicious breakfast and lunch. In the boat the very friendly managers. We were able to observe a whale with its calf, a turtle and birds. The weather was excellent. Some of us are encouraged to enter the open sea always under the care of the boat’s boys. They had a nice detail with my daughter and we sang the happy birthday together. Highly recommended.
