5.00We experienced for the Wildlife Safari Tour with Alex On The Beach Tours in late November and it was amazing! Our guide was Daniel and our driver was Marcos. They both had excellent knowledge of the nature, animals and birds we were seeing! We took a boat tour on the Bebedero River, and saw plenty of crocodiles, monkeys and birds. Then a delicious typical Costa Rican lunch at Soda Doña Carmen, which also had a butterfly garden for us to explore. Next was Bijagua rainforest where we saw sloths, frogs, snakes and many birds. Finally, we visited the beautiful Llanoz del Cortez waterfall. It was a day very well spent with excellent guides and we highly recommend it!

5.00Had a great time with our tour guides, Daniel and Johnny. Fun for the entire family. We stayed at the Riu Palace. We went on two expeditions with Alex on the beach. We went to a wildlife jungle tour, explored waterfalls, mud spa, hot springs, ziplining, horseback riding, and down the waterslide. So many great adventures and memories. In the wildlife tour we saw sloths, toucans, tree frogs, a snake, and lots of "blue jeans" frogs. Shuttles were prompt and provided lunches were terrific. Would recommend.

5.00We did 2 tours with Alex on the Beach. We travelled as a couple on our own with our Guide which was Pablo Campos on both occasions. He was friendly, knowledgeable and fun to be with and introduced us to some traditional Costa Rican foods. The first tour was the all day Wildlife Tour with Pablo and David. We saw a baby sloth at very close range which was brilliant, a tapir, monkeys, frogs, birds, snakes. A brilliant experience followed by lunch and a boat trip down the Tenorio/Corobici Rivers topped off by a swim in the Llanos de Cortez waterfall. Unforgetable day. Our 2nd trip was to the Hanging Bridges in Heliconias. No wildlife but still memorable especially for me as I am not normally that good with heights. This was followed by ATVs which was a bit of fun. All in all , I would thoroughly recommend Alex on the Beach as a Tour Guide company and also Pablo as a guide, who was brilliant
Crazy Loco Alex is the best tour guide!

5.00Our tour guide, “Crazy (Loco) Alex”, was the absolute best! This tour was a LOT of driving from our Hotel RIU Palace in Guanacaste, but he made the ride fun. Probably 1/3 of this tour is spent driving, but we saw lots of wonderful things. The river boat cruise was both relaxing and fun, and we saw probably 15+ crocodiles! We also saw lots of monkeys, bats and iguanas. Then during the rainforest tour we saw beautiful frogs, a poisonous pit viper, and some precious sloths. The waterfalls were also beautiful. Thank you to “Loco Alex” for making our day an absolute blast.
Epic experience & guides

Awesome day with Norman

5.00This was a full day of Costa Rican culture, wildlife and fun! Norman Ortega was our guide and we were lucky enough to have him to ourselves for the day. We began by stopping for breakfast at a typical grocery store where we were able to purchase a delicious breakfast. We were also given the option to stop at a supermarket to pick up supplies and use the facilities. On to the 2 hour river trip where we saw monkeys, birds, iguanas and crocodiles. What an experience! Norman then took us to a restaurant where we had lunch waiting for us because Norman pre-ordered what we wanted and reserved a table. I had steak and my husband had chicken. Both were very tasty and generous with rice, beans, plantains, veggies and dessert. The restaurant even had a butterfly enclosure! After that we drove through the rainforest on the Caribbean side to a Wildlife sanctuary where we were guided by Ana, a lovely girl who knew where to find sloths, monkeys, toucans, and many other animals. Next stop was the Cortez waterfall where we were amazed by the beauty and were able to swim. The tour took about 10 hours from pickup to dropoff at our hotel.All in all, a great value and Norman was a gem. He is extremely knowledgeable about his country, its history and keeps it all interesting. Highly recommended.

5.00We spent the day with Alex, from Alex in the beach, from 7:30-7:30. We started off by getting to see some waterfalls and jump off rocks! After that we went to our next stop, the River tour, and had lunch waiting for us. We saw crocodiles, iguanas, monkeys and birds everywhere. After the river tour we took a ride the Caribbean side of the Country for the Wildlife safari tour. Once again, this did not disappoint. We were able to see Sloths, monkeys, frogs and Toucans all over the place! Overall the best part of the tour was Alex himself. This guy knows everything there is to know about the history of Costa Rica and can tell you about every single animal he sees. A walking talking encyclopedia! ***PAY ATTENTION*** other vendors may be using Alex’s name to attract business because of how successful he has been, but they do not associate with Alex or his partners. Please be careful and use Alex and his team only! Pura Vida
