5.00The staff of the Costa Cat was not only professional at all times but also very personable. It was everything we expected and couldn’t ask for more. Please remember to tip the staff. They waited on us while on the boat and while on the beach. Each delivering fantastic service. Had a great trip. Thank you so much to the Captain, Wilbur and the rest of the staff.
Worth it!

5.00We took the Costa Cat to Tortuga Island. Hotel pick up was about 20 minutes late, but that’s island time. Boarding was easy and on time. Once at the island the snorkeling was great especially because they were feeding the fish. Afterwards we had lunch, beach volleyball, and banana boat rides. Terrific souvenir shop on the island that accepts Apple Pay. Bring towels and highly recommend bring lots of sun screen. The base package included jungle punch and margaritas. There was an upgraded alcohol package that we did not need. Will on the crew is the best! Overall amazing experience! Pura Vida
Must do this!

5.00The crew took care of us from the moment we met them at the dock. Everything was taken care of -- and we never had to look for the crew , they came to us to ask if we wanted another drink or more food or to tell us it was time for the excursion to begin. We had so much fun snorkeling (the fish were unbelievable!!), ride on a banana boat, beautiful lunch and a wonderful hike-- would do this again !!

5.00Highly recommend this tour. Staff went above and beyond - very friendly and hard working. Tour was well organized and all-inclusive (chairs, umbrella, snorkeling, lunch). The lunch that was served was by far the best food I ever had on a tour!
Do not miss this! Best day ever

5 Star Experience

5.00The captain, crew and staff, both onboard and ashore offered the most comprehensive 5-Star experience possible. On board, the boat was pristine, the ride was great, and the crew was very attentive. That was unexpected, and I felt I was on an Below Deck episode, and much less an excursion to an island. Upon landing on the island we went to a dedicated area that was very comfortable. The crew shifted to a response service team seeing to our drinks, checking in often and making us feeling cared for on the level of a top restaurant. The food was INSANE. Everything was fresh, made on the spot, fresh, and tasty. We had grilled chicken with all the sides. The portions were amazing (bring an appetite!). And the dishes and utensils were not plastic of paper! There were also activities - hike, water toys and a hike. We were busy being fat sloths after the meal. But the water was nice to say the least. About tipping. I felt they earned every penny of a 20% tip. Its crew shared and they impressed. Overall, one of the best experiences we had in CR. No hesitation in doing this - and next time we'll try another of their adventures.
Perfect day dolphins and whales and relaxation with things in between.

5.00After a year and a half in Costa Rica, my sister came to visit and my son gifted a cruise each to tortuga island. These people are the absolute best ever! You never want for anything. You're never thirsty or hungry or bored or overwhelmed with things you need to do. The cleanest boat I've ever seen. Julia, Aron, and the rest of the crew were totally nice and helpful. Lunch was absolutely lovely. Drinks were refreshing. The 15 minute hike was a little more than a 70-y-o couch potato was expecting, and worth every step. I would probably never go with another company, seriously. And the other guests were equally as impressed. The only thing is... if you haven't snorkeled much, make sure your mask is fitted. The crew will assist. 10 out of five stars! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Great Day
