Top Costa Rica Snorkeling

This tour was the highlight of my entire trip and I could not possibly recommend it more. The guides Santiago, Annie, and William were hands down the kindest, most passionate, and most authentic tour guides I have ever met. From start to finish this tour was filled with extra details that just enriched the experience in every way. From stopping at a bakery in Santiago's home town, to seeing one of Costa Rica's oldest trees, hiking the entire trail at Tenorio, the guides spotting wildlife with ease and taking the time to make sure everyone saw them too, swimming in a locally known spot, to stopping whenever more wildlife was spotted along the way; this tour truly had it all. If Pura Vida could be personified into an experience, this would be that experience. I loved how it never felt rushed, there was always time for pictures, breaks, or to just soak up the views. Seriously I cannot recommend this company enough. In fact, the only regret of my entire trip was not booking every tour through Red Lava Tours, that's how good this tour was. If you are looking for an authentic, emersive Costa Rican experience then this is your tour.

We highly recommend this experience! The crew was super professional and handled everything smoothly. It was a fun, energetic vibe throughout. The bar service was fantastic, we enjoyed the break for snorkeling, and the cruise back to watch the sunset was perfectly timed. This felt like a really good value and we left with great memories!

An unforgettable afternoon adventure Snorkeling was the highlight—crystal-clear waters filled with vibrant fish and even a few stingrays gliding by. The crew impressed us with freshly prepared food that was far better than expected. Unfortunately, heavy rain rolled in before sunset, cutting the trip a bit short, but it hardly diminished the experience. Overall, a fantastic outing that I would gladly recommend to others.
