Beautiful Place with a lousy tour company. But tour guide was good

4.00The trip experience was good, the tour guide Jose was excellent. The Poas volcano is worth seeing it. I recommend the tour. I booked the tour from Viator and the tour was organized by Inside Tours Costa Rica. Viator is a good and trusted company but MAKE SURE that Inside Tours Costa Rica IS NOT YOUR TOUR OPERATOR. You can change the company during the booking process. Although the tour bus was passing by from my hotel, they refused to pick me from hotel. They ask me to take taxi and go to another nearby hotel. It was sad, after paying so much for the trip. The entire day I was feeling UNSAFE knowing the fact that the tour operator is not helpful.
Disappointed.

2.00It seems that the guides are in a hurry at all times. Yiny is impolite and does not allow to enjoy the trip. I didn't feel the trip was right. 30 minutes on a volcano, 30 minutes on a waterfall.

4.00To check the weather to see whether the vulcano will be visible or not, because if you book a few days in advance that the chances are not good , you would not book that trip! The tour at the coffee farm saved the day, because it was excellent. It is a pity that when taking these tours: La Paz falls or sanctury or Poas that so much time is lost in traffic. Though you have other travelers to chat with it takes the fun out of the visits.or makes the experience less memorable.
Poor customer service overall

2.00For a company that is supposed to be prompt, they arrived 35 minutes late to pick us up. The guide did not meet us until our first stop. Her information about coffee was good. We then went to LaPaz waterfall and stopped on the side of the road for us to take a picture. Then we went to lunch. Then to Poas volcano that was covered in clouds so we couldn’t see anything. We did not go to butterfly farm or chocolate tasting. Trip unfortunately was mostly on the bus. We were in traffic quite a bit. When they arrived so late to pick us up 1 person in our group couldn’t go because she was worried about getting back late and had a commitment. They would not refund even partial payment. I’m sorry but I would not recommend this company.
VERY DISAPPOINTED

2.00VERY disappointing!! We were instructed for pick up at 6am, the bus did NOT show until 6:35am. They did NOT take us to the butterfly garden or the chocolate tasting. Stood outside on the street to see the waterfalls. Tour ended 5pm an hour early. No commentary to tell us what we were seeing while on the bus ride. Get an uber and have them show you around
Disappointing service experience

1.00Disappointing experience. The reason for hiring the tour was the volcano and the waterfall and we were canceled the peace waterfall. Javier said it was for security reasons, but the next day we could see that it was not. Although Javier the guide was very attentive in his explanations, he did not really offer a valuable alternative when canceling the trip to the waterfall. I had said they were going to take us to lunch and they didn't take us either, and they just offered to drop us off near a restaurant. Anyway, the tour did not meet expectations, did not include any food and did not return the value of what we paid for it.
Good experience

5.00It is a nice tour, the view of the volcano is random, we could see it clearly. The best is the coffee and butterfly tour. They have very good disposition, the farm is very well maintained.
The valcano , coffee and butterfly experience

4.00Percy was a very enthusiastic and passionate guide. The tour van got caught in traffic so Percy changed the pick up point and ran a few blocks to pick us up and took us to the van . He made a consscienscious effort to learn our names. Then we went papa valcano we’re he explain some facts and perused up . It was very cloudy at first at the two craters . So he done a clearing dance and finally it cleared enough to see the first crater . Then on to the coffee plantation which was very informative. Lastly the butterfly garden were Percy was very familiar and explained some of their habits .
Great tour
