Top Costa Rica Day Trips - page 23

This was the best tour! This review is a little long, but it’s absolutely worth reading. We started at the waterfall and then headed into the rainforest, where we saw two sloths, a snake, a frog, beautiful flowers, and so much more. The coffee and cocoa experience was also fantastic. They even feed you, and the food was delicious! Louis was a fantastic driver, and Rudy was an amazing tour guide. They were knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire experience unforgettable. 10/10 — highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Costa Rica!

What an amazing day spent exploring Costa Rica with Carlos! We had scheduled a nature walk, waterfall hike and tubing down the Rio Celeste. Unfortunately, due to a large storm a few days before we arrived, the roads to get to the waterfall hike were impassable. Carlos quickly pivoted and offered to take us on a coffee and chocolate tour, which we were planning to do later in the week. I was able to cancel the other reservation and the tour he took us on was perfect. The whole day was great, seeing many animals and wildlife, most incredible was a young sloth suspended only about 6 feet off the ground. The river tubing was so much fun and Carlos made extra efforts to get the photos and videos from the tubing guide which we greatly appreciated! Don’t hesitate to book this trip, you won’t regret it!

10/10 tour of Downtown San José!!! Our guide Óscar was incredibly kind and knowledgeable about CR history and culture, and was happy to answer the many questions our group had (lol). I booked this excursion last minute because my flight got significantly delayed and I'm so so glad I did. We also got to eat a delicious traditional Costa Rican dinner and even made our own empanadas! I did go by myself, but ended up meeting the kindest family from my home state and we even went bowling together after! Overall, just a beautiful, unforgettable, and affordable experience. Even if you just have a long layover, it's not too far from the airport, so definitely reccomend to anyone staying for more than a few hrs in San José! My only disclaimer would be that, if you're planning to shop at the central markets, you should book a tour that ends before 5pm when they start to close or plan to shop before your tour begins. Also, come with an empty stomach because there's plenty of food for you here!!!
