What are people saying about Costa Rica

Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall from Guanacaste

Kristi_S, Nov 2026

Amazing Day

We left from Tamarindo so be prepared for a long day but many stops for bathroom breaks as needed (and requested). Our tour guide was Nana I can not remember our drive but he was also great!. Nana was full of local information and happy to answer any questions we had about the tour or about the locals, economy, country etc. First stop was the waterfall. An small hike down (mostly stairs) and then you are at the falls. A beautiful small area you can wade in and swim if you like along with a great photo opportunity. We wore our swim suites then changed into dry clothes after the walk back up. Some people just waded in the water and others swam. 2nd stop was the sloth tour, our guide was amazing and very knowledge about the wildlife and vegetation. We were able to find sloths, toucans, snakes and some beautiful flowers. Next we went for lunch an amazing local lunch with fresh fruit juice to drink (you can order beers for additional costs). Then we went to the coffee plantation again our guide through the plantation was amazing. We were able to partake in fresh local brewed coffee and hot chocolate with sugar cane. It was time to head home and it was a bit of a drive but many had a bit of a nap before the shop to look for souvenirs along with a clean bathroom stop and coffee if needed. Over all an amazing day! If you are up for an experience and ready to go with the flow this is an amazing day!

Manuel Antonio National Park: Guided Tour with TICKET INCLUDED

838fridac, Nov 2026

The best experience in Manuel Antonio

The best decision was to have booked a private tour with Mystique. Our guide Luis Roberto made our experience unforgettable. He showed us a ton of animals: sloths, coatis, deer, little monkeys, iguanas, birds, and many more. Always attentive and kind. He helped us take photos and record videos of the little animals. Thank you very much for everything

Authentic Coffee and Chocolate Tour at North Fields

KRae13_C, Nov 2026

Bring chocolate and coffee to life

Did a 3pm tour with Esteban as our guide. We learned so much on this tour and the sampling/smelling really brought the experience to life. Seeing how the fruits themselves grow was so amazing and getting to experience different parts of the process really brought a new appreciation to coffee and chocolate for me. We also were visiting at the end by a pup named Max and he was so absolutely sweet! Our tour was almost 3 hrs, so definitely plan for that. It was dark as we wrapped up. We were able to get some beautiful shots with the sunset. We also saw some howler monkeys, but mostly heard them.

Tortuga Island Full Day Tour from San José with Lunch

Jennifer_S, Nov 2026

Great way to enjoy sea life and relaxation

This was a great day on the water, with a little bit of adventure and a lot of relaxation. We started the morning with a stop at a breakfast spot that had a cool butterfly garden attached to it. We then made our way to the docks where we boarded a boat to make the trip over to the island. We made side quests along the way to look at animals, including crocodiles, turtles and dolphins. Captain Steve drove the boat around spider monkey island in hopes of spying a few, but we were not so lucky. We then made a stop for snorkeling. Those in our group who did not want to snorkel were put on a skiff to go directly to the island while the rest of us had a nice amount of time snorkeling. There were a lot of fish to be seen and the water was the perfect temperature. It is not the clearest water I have snorkeled in, but I was still able to see plenty of fish. Once we made it to the island itself, we were treated to fresh fruit and given free time to do what we wanted. The island offered several different activities, along with lounge chair rentals, but I stuck with hanging out in the water and sitting in the area that our group was allotted. As is mentioned in other reviews, they charge for everything on the island as far as activities, lounge chair and locker rentals and access to the bathrooms. But this was explained to us at the beginning of the trip. We were also given lunch, which was a nice meal of rice, beans, chicken and salad. Overall it was a great day of observing sea life and relaxing. Our guide, Roy, was wonderful, switching between Spanish and English to ensure everyone on the trip understood everything that was going on and had all of their questions answered. He was professional but also playful and did a great job balancing the two. If you are looking for a few hours of enjoying the water, this is a great way to do so.

Arenal 12 Zipline Cables Experience Fly over La Fortuna Waterfall

Luis_A, Oct 2026

Amazing Zipline with excellent service

Best family experience ever, the ziplines were amazing and fun for our entire family. The customer service was amazing. Even after we made the mistake to not making it on time due to time adjustment. The company accommodated for us to come back the next day. We are so thankful for them to be able to work us in to an already busy schedule.

Don’t Miss Out On This Adventure

We had such an amazing time! Everyone was so welcoming and made the whole experience that much better. A special shoutout to Daphne, Oliver, and all the other staff who helped us along the way. They were all so friendly, fun, and great at what they do. You can tell they genuinely care about making sure everyone has a good time. The lunch was also worth mentioning. Great food at the local hotel restaurant! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Costa Rica. Thanks for such a great time! Pura Vida! 🇨🇷

La Fortuna: ATV Adventure Through Rainforest & Volcano Views

JLC, Sep 2026

Don't Leave Costa Rica Before Doing This Tour!

This was an incredibly fun adventure! Our guide was great and we were on 3 different terrains. One thing I would suggest is a bit more instructions on how you handle the ATV when you get to uneven areas. Using the brake at the wrong time, versus just letting up on the gas is an important detail. I did get banged once. But all was well. Would highly recommend this tour!

Canyoning Adventure Rappelling Waterfalls in Arenal Volcano

anahW4139KL, Sep 2026

Just super 🌞

Great experience! The five different waterfalls were truly one highlight after another. Safety was prioritized throughout, and we always felt very well taken care of. However, the experience is not for the faint of heart, and good physical fitness should also be present. But for all adventurers, this canyoning tour is really just the right thing!

Valencians in Costa Rica

Highly recommended experience for both children and adults. If you have come this far, you cannot miss it!!! It is priceless to see and swim together with turtles, pufferfish, .... Fair price for food, drinks, music, and experience. Thanks to Captain Josué and his team, Jorge and Anderson, we felt very safe, super well taken care of, and spent a wonderful afternoon with a sunset included.
