What are people saying about Tamarindo

10 out of 10
This day was the highlight of our trip. Carlos, our guide, had incredible knowledge of everything Costa Rica. John, our driver and was equally great at pointing out unique places, animals, and things as we traveled to our different destinations. The tubing was a fun adrenaline rush, and Omar and Alejandro made sure we were safe and had fun. Overall, this day was the best time! 10 out of 10

Must do!
The tour started on time. Our driver and guide were great hosts. Very knowledgeable about the vegetation and species we saw. We were starting to head back and on the boat when we noticed the howler monkeys had descended to lower branches and we were given time to get off the boat again to observe. We were provided beverages and fresh pineapple (which was unexpected!). Overall a great experience.

Sun set Catamaran
The sun set catamaran was amazing!!! We brought our family of 8, ages 70s to 8 years old. It was fun!!! We had the opportunity to paddle board, snorkel and just swimming in the ocean. The food was amazing, tacos, salad, pasta salad and chips. We had unlimited drinks! The hospitality by Angel, Luis and Erick was amazing! We saw dolphins!

Pure Joy from Start to Finish – 5 Stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I booked this experience through Viator, and it honestly turned out to be the absolute highlight of our entire trip. From the very first moment we arrived, we were welcomed by the most wonderful staff team – they were not only incredibly professional and organized, but also genuinely warm, energetic, and attentive. They made sure every single guest felt included, safe, and ready to have a great time. Their smiles and positive vibes set the tone for the whole day.
The food and drinks were absolutely top-notch. Right at the beginning, as we stepped in under the blazing sun, the team greeted us with generous platters of fresh watermelon and pineapple – juicy, sweet, and perfectly chilled. That first bite was pure bliss, sending a wave of cool refreshment through us and instantly melting away the summer heat. It was exactly the kind of welcome we needed to kick off the adventure with renewed energy.
The local cuisine was a feast for the senses: every dish was packed with authentic, bold flavors, from perfectly grilled meats to tangy salsas and traditional sides that tasted like they came straight from a local grandmother's kitchen. It was a delicious cultural experience in itself.
And let's talk about the beverages – what a selection! The open bar offered everything from signature cocktails and ice-cold local beers to soft drinks and creative mocktails. The bartenders were quick, friendly, and always happy to whip up something special. There was never a dull moment when it came to drinks.
But the real game-changer was the music. The DJ kept the energy sky-high with an electrifying mix of Latin beats, international chart-toppers, and classic party anthems. The rhythm was so infectious that the dance floor was packed from the first song to the very last. Everyone – strangers and friends alike – danced together, laughed together, and celebrated like we'd known each other for years.
Time flew by in a blur of fun, and before we knew it, the activity was coming to an end. Yet nobody wanted to leave – we lingered, took group photos, exchanged contact info with new friends, and kept dancing even as the music faded. We walked away with nothing but pure joy, big smiles, and unforgettable memories that will stay with us forever.
If you're looking for an experience that combines amazing food, fantastic drinks, great music, and an incredible team of people who truly care about your enjoyment – this is it. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Five stars all the way – thank you to the entire crew for giving us a day we'll never forget!

It was a great experience! The whole family had a blast in the tubings, zip lining, horse riding and thermal waters. Required a lot of walking, you need to be a good shape. Hope that there are more signals to get to the thermals water area if you come self drive and not with a tour. It was a very fun day, staff was very friendly and attentive.

Amazing lovely day
Super awesome amazing time with friendly staff and great lunch. The catamaran is large and it wasn’t even close to capacity so we had tons of space to enjoy. The private island part was amazing too, would very much recommend. Thank you Luis, Luis, and Toto.

Rio Celeste, Sloths and Cortez Waterfalls
Kevin and Kristian we're very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable guides who made the tour fun and interesting. It was very well organized, the guide in the sloth sanctuary was very good and discovered lots of animals which he helped us photograph through the binoculars. The lunch location was well selected, the food delicious. Highly recommended!

Wonderful
The food and drinks were great. The weather from the tropical storm had the water not clear enough for snorkeling. I wish they would have had some life jackets instead of pool noodles especially for people like my husband that can’t float. One pool noodle was not enough for a muscular man that can’t float. I didn’t even have one for very long because I went with my hubby back to the boat and some guy grabbed mine and his and took off. But overall it was a good trip.

I recommend booking this one!
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.

Staff is kind, friendly, professional, and patient. I personally struggled with a class due to my nerves and anxiety. However, the staff was very patient with me even with extra time to help me get comfortable enough to dive. Personally, I was unable to do the activity, but I would recommend this to anyone that wants to try scuba. This is a great place to learn mainly because of how patient thorough and understanding the staff is.
Big thanks to Ramon for spending extra time in the water with me trying to help me get comfortable with the activity and equipment!

Wonderful experience! The only potential downside is if someone doesn’t like crowds, the boat can get a fair amount of people on there, which can also add to the fun, but if you want a more private experience than that might be a distraction. Food was good, beautiful surroundings, saw sea turtle, and humpback whale!

Nice day at sea
Nice boat. The crew led by Carlos were fun and helpful. We went out on a very windy day and it made getting the launch into shore to pick us up and take us to the catamaran quite challenging, but they showed their expertise. The drinks, food, music and activities were all very nice. Snorkeling was a little less than it would have been on a calmer day but still fun.
