Super fun! Diego our driver was so nice and would make any stops necessary like going to the bathroom or grabbing breakfast real quick. The people at the park were so nice as well! They made us feel safe and have a good time while doing the zipline/ ATV. I’m glad I took a chance on this!

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.

A Must for any Costa Rica Trip
We had a great experience! Shoutout to Oxaney (tour guide) and Ignacio (driver) who were super friendly and gave us a day to remember!
We had a great time seeing animals, ziplining, hot springs. Good food. Drive through the mountains at night was calm despite all of the windy roads
Pro tip: Bring some colones to give to the native population as well as tips for the guides!

Pura Vida ... so true!
This trip offers much of the best of Costa Rica. Exceptional guides and drivers, especially Hayro and Tihago. We had one guide who failed adequately to translate to English, when the group was slightly more Spanish speakers than English but the day trip was successful regardless. Ziplining and White Water Rafting on tge Pacuare exceeded expectations. The boat coxswain, Roberto, was the best I've ever encountered. Hayro was very knowledgeable about fauna, birds, amphibians, insects and plants ... which made a stroll through the park a master class in natire study.

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.

Wonderful tour but take caution if you’re not in shape!
This is absolutely a must do activity in Costa Rica. They have 11 ziplines and 2 rappels which seem scary but they’re super fun, and the views are wonderful. The guides were really kind and friendly and moved at our pace, especially because the walk up is pretty exhausting for someone who isn’t naturally athletic. The one thing I didn’t like was that even though they do have an emergency brake, they had us brake/slow down with our right arm, which often meant the line pulled our arms back quite a bit especially when going fast. I think that possibly pulled a muscle in my arm, and I was extremely sore for several days. Be warned - if you’re not in shape, the hike is rough, and be careful when braking with your arm.

Private shuttle from SJO to Manuel Antonio
Our driver, Francisco, was great! He was very friendly and made our journey from SJO to Manuel Antonio very comfortable. He pointed out various landmarks along the way and provided us with information about the area. I would definitely recommend this service!

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

Olger is the Best!!
Wow! What an amazing time we had at Curicancha! Our guide Olger was so wonderful, he taught us so much about his culture and the history of Monteverde all while listening to and showing us the birds of the forest! He shared the Spanish names for some of the birds we saw and even we we couldn’t see some birds he told us about their calls and showed us what they looked like in his book. He was kind, enthusiastic, and very fun. We had the most enjoyable and relaxing time.

Good price great service
Tour operator was very responsive and was able to provide me all the info I needed. I was in a flight delay and busy immigration situation and the tour operator was in contact with me all the time and could confirm with me if the shuttle will still wait as there are other passengers and we want to be mindful of their time. In the end, I made it as they waited for me and that really made my day. The driver was kind and his driving was safe. Would use volcano travel again!

When we landed he was waiting with a sign that had my name (I just love that :)). He had cold waters waiting for us. The ride was smooth. Our Airbnb was in the mountains. The ride up was very scary but our driver got us there! I booked with the same company when my family was leaving. They had to leave around 1a. He was there on time ready to take them to the airport. Thank you so much!
