5.00I’ve been to Costa Rica three times now. Been on many excursions. Javier is the best tour guide I’ve ever had. By far. Unbelievably kind, knowledgeable, and above and beyond guy. I cannot say enough nice things. We LOVED our tour with Javier!!!

5.00My mom and I booked a private excursion with Alex, and it exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment the tour began, it was clear that Alex was passionate about sharing the beauty and culture of Costa Rica. Our day included stunning waterfalls, sloth and wildlife viewing, a jungle tour, a delicious private lunch, and a fascinating historical tour of the country. As an added surprise, Alex even took us to a breathtaking blue lagoon for a swim, something that wasn't included in the package but made the experience even more memorable. As first time visitors to Costa Rica, we couldn't have asked for a better guide. Alex was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and attentive throughout the day. He went above and beyond to help my mom navigate some of the more challenging terrain, which was greatly appreciated. This may have been our first tour with Alex, but it certainly won't be our last. Thank you, Alex, for sharing your beautiful country with us and creating memories that we will cherish forever. With gratitude, The "Loonie" Canadians,Carlie & Karen 🇨🇦

5.00This is the second time we have hired Alex. He was born and raised in Costa Rica. He knows all the secret spots to find animals! Don’t go to Costa Rica without hiring him. He is the best!

5.00Alex took us all over the place! He took a zip lining at the Skye trek. He took us to a sloth sanctuary. Incredible! He took us to the waterfall and we went swimming and then he took us to Baldi Hot Springs so we could soak in the pools there. It was the most amazing day ever.!

Tour with Mick to waterfall and mountains

5.00The tour we booked included the waterfall, hot springs with mud bath, lunch, and rain forest to see the sloths. Our driver and guide was Mick. We recommend going with him as he is easy to chat with and gives an artistic interpretation to the scenery, which is so diverse as we move from one location to the next. The lunch meal was absolutely delicious. This tour should be on your bucket list if you love nature and wildlife.
Highly recommended tour.

5.00Meek was our guide for the, he was awesome. Due to a communication issue or trip was postponed by a day and we added the hot springs and mud bath. Having the extra time with Meek was a plus. The sloth, coffee, chocolate portion was great. We ate some termites, saw a toucan, snakes, sloths. The mud bath and hot springs were great as we felt like our group of four were the only ones there.

5.00Fantastic tour. Our guide Mick was fantastic, very knowledgeable and perfect english. We saw all the wildlife we expected to see. There were many three-toed and two-toed sloths. Spider and Howler Monkees. Toucan, Motmot and many other birds. We picked coffee and ground local coffee beans. We roasted cacao beans and ground them to make chocolate. We made a tortilla and empanada. The people were so nice and knowledgeable. We finished with a meal at a country restaurant where they cooked an entire meal on a wood fire. We highly recommend this tour to see the most wild life and local customs in a single tour.
