The Best Private Tour

5.00We enjoyed our private tour very much! Alejandro was knowledgeable, professional, and funny. Because of him we have better understanding of Pura Vida. Not only did we see 6 sloths at two different locations, we saw red eye tree frogs and their eggs, Bee hive Ginger, and much more. We thoroughly enjoyed or local meal. Thanks again Alejandro.
Amazing

5.00Juan was knowledgeable and nice. Felt like we were hanging out with family. Hot springs was refreshing and trying to get glimpse of the Sloth was funny, since I didn’t have my glasses. We saw other small animals and beautiful flowers along the path, red eye tree frog. The guides at the location Luis and Cato were a bunch of comedians and of course knowledgeable and patient. . Lunch was included at a local restaurant, food was good. We had a great time.
EXCELLENT tour for families!!!

5.00We are traveling in Costa Rica with 2 other families with smaller children. As we booked this tour we were not exactly sure what to expect. All I can say is that it exceeded our expectations!! It was the highlight of our trip!! Gino was the most knowledgeable and kind tour guide. Our children went with us on this trip hoping to spot some wildlife. Gino helped us to find toucans (which were absolutely gorgeous), sloths, tree frogs, snakes, butterflies, and monkeys all in the wild! He helped us to learn more about these animals, the rainforest, and the culture in Costa Rica. We cannot believe how much we learned in one day. If you’re looking for a wonderful tour whether you’re an adult, have children, or just want to learn about animals and Costa Rica itself make sure you ask for Gino! By far the best tour guide I have ever had along my travels.
Unforgettable Experience and lasting memories

5.00We had such a wonderful experience with Carlos. He spent time providing information about Costa Rica on our drive to the volcano. We so enjoyed our horseback riding, hike and hanging bridges to see a number of waterfalls and then a mud bath ritual. Because we did a private tour we were able to customize the experience and had a wonderful lunch at the La Forketta in Liberia where they surprised my son with a traditional dessert and song for his birthday. It was overall excellent experience and highly recommend this tour company and ask for Carlos!
Dont miss this tour.

5.00Dont miss out on this. Very unique and scenic. This doesn't take you to the primary crater which requires 4 hours hike each way
Incredible!

5.00We had an absolutely amazing experience that exceeded all expectations! Our driver/tour guide Carlos was informative, and patient. He kept us on schedule to do everything so we didn’t miss a thing and did so much in just one day! My family and I fell in love with Costa Rica and will definitely be back and will use TripAdvisor for all future tours while traveling!
