Reliable and spacious van for private transfers from San José Airport (SJO) to Manuel Antonio.

Poás volcano is a powerful symbol of the geothermal forces that formed Costa Rica. When the mist and clouds part you’ll see the sulfuric, bubbling, green rain fed lake at the bottom, surrounded by smoke and steam rising from fumaroles. Water from the lake is constantly seeping through cracks in the hot rock, evaporating and building pockets of steam. When the pressure in these pockets exceeds the weight of the water above, the steam breaks through in geysers that rocket up to 820 feet (250 meters) high. Don’t worry about getting a shower though, the crater is 1,050 feet (320 meters) deep. At almost a mile (1.6 km) across it’s also the largest active crater in the world. New safety features have been added to protect visitors in case of particularly heavy activity.

What are people saying about San Jose

Alfred_B, May 2026

Perfect Experience with a Day Trip

It’s an activity well worth the money with an outstanding guide like Hayro! Hayro’s vast knowledge of all locations visited was truly impressive. His pride in his country and being able to so eloquently share this with tourists make him a perfect travel guide. The volcanoes were shrouded in fog at the time of visit but the visit at Lancaster and the lunch at Lake Cachi more than made up for the weather situation around the volcanoes. We can highly recommend this day trip.

Well worth it!

Given that the Marriott Vacation Club is quite a distance from the airport and we are not familiar with CR traffic / roads, it was well worth having a private shuttle bring us to the hotel. Nice way to begin our CR vacation! Excellent driving and service by Carlos! Highly recommend this company.

Wildlife Refuge La Paz Waterfall Gardens Day Trip from San Jose

Jason_R, Mar 2026

Best tour of our vacation thanks to Harlan!

This was our best tour of our vacation! The park was fantastic, but as most of you already know, it's your guide that can make it a very special day. Our guide Harlan was beyond fabulous! He was extremely knowledgeable, kept us on pace and had an excellent way of providing both history, details of the park and making us laugh at the same time. He had the added task of speaking both spanish and english the entire tour and perfectly balanced this between our family and the other family. If you are lucky enough to have him as your guide, consider yourself blessed! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone considering it.

Adventure

Excellent experience if you are up for adventure! All the drivers and guides were great, informative, and helpful. Hotel staff was great. Would definitely encourage anyone to go. Know that you need to be able to walk a lot and often up and down steep hills. You need to be flexible as weather and traffic can change things. You will be doing a lot of traveling and often through steep curvy roads. Great Experience

This was one of the best...

This was one of the best vacations we have ever been. We got to do so many interesting activities; it is hard to single out one as our favorite. We covered many points of interest from coast to coast. Staying in the same hotel was convenient even if it meant travel time can be long to some of the places. I truly think it is a great value. The tour guides were attentive and friendly. We enjoyed our stay at Radisson, San Jose. The setting was beautiful, with a lot of amenities and the rooms were very comfortable and clean. Breakfast was sumptuous with a lot of choices and delicious.
