Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall Experience

luvbebe07, Jun 2026

We are a family of five...

We are a family of five with three young children (ages 10, 8, and 4), and this excursion was probably the highlight of our trip. Orlando arrived on time to pick us up from our resort and made the journey safe, comfortable, and enjoyable throughout the day. The vehicle was clean, and we always had plenty of water available. Carlos was our guide, and he was knowledgeable, personable, and dedicated to ensuring everyone in our group had a wonderful experience. He went above and beyond to make the day memorable. Overall, Pure Nature Private Tour did an outstanding job making sure we saw all the points of interest while learning about the culture and beauty of Costa Rica. We highly recommend them and will definitely book with them again for future excursions when we return. Thank you, Pure Nature, for an unforgettable experience!

Discover secret beaches near Tamarindo on ATVs

Scott_H, May 2026

Great day- bring water and cash

Our family had an amazing day exploring the secret beaches near Tamarindo on ATVs. The rides themselves were just as exciting as the beach stops — cruising along the back roads, kicking up dust, and weaving through the countryside was half the fun. We visited three beaches, each with its own vibe. The first and third had spots to grab a cold drink (bring cash!), and the second beach was a stunning hidden cove with no amenities — totally worth the stop for the views alone. A couple of tips: bring plenty of water and a neck gaiter, because it gets hot and very dusty. These two things made a huge difference for us. The only downside was that the tour office didn’t have a sink to wash up after the ride. After getting absolutely covered in dust, we ended up using our drinking water to clean our hands and faces, which was a bit of a bummer. But honestly, the adventure itself was so good that it still deserves a full five stars. Overall, this ATV tour is an exciting, memorable way to explore Tamarindo’s hidden beaches, and our whole family loved it.

ATV with a group of 10

This was great. We went with a group of 10 and couples shared atv’s. It was lots of fun. Seeing so much of the back streets and they took us to two beautiful beaches. We went in mid May which was still dry season so it was super dusty. The guides were great and kept us safe and on track.

My wife and I had a great time on our ATV adventure with 506 adventures and tours. Picked us up at our hotel right on time. Got us on our vehicles ready to go. Had a couple of nice stops by the beach for a water break and ended the trip with some fresh pineapple, which was delicious. Definitely recommended.

Frogs-Sloths-waterfall-Coffee and Chocolate Tour

Lisa_S, Apr 2026

Exceptional

Absolutely incredible!!! All the guides and our driver were very knowledgeable about the wildlife. The coffee plantation was extremely interesting. Our guide was friendly and took his time to explain everything. This was one of the best Viator tour experiences I’ve encountered. We saw 6 sloths, tree frogs, poisonous frogs, a yellow viper, rare birds etc …our guide was skilled at finding wildlife using her scope and helped us take pictures using the scope. I love chocolate so I can’t say more !!! Everything was excellent! Highly recommend this tour !!!

Costa Rica Private Guanacaste Airport (LIR) Departure transfer

Danielle_S, Apr 2026

Airport transfer couldn’t be better

We used this service from and back to the airport. They were very responsive via email to schedule and confirm before the trips. Also, when I couldn’t find the driver in the airport and needed to contact them on the fly, which I really appreciated because that was a little stressful. Turned out the driver waited by the side door and I only looked outside the front door. Pick up at the hotel was exactly on time - always a concern with a long drive and early flight. All in all great service with both drivers.

ATV and UTV Beach Tour from Tamarindo, Flamingo and Conchal Beach

Courtney_D, Mar 2026

This is a must do! We...

This is a must do! My family and I had a fantastic time! Christian was welcoming and accommodating. We arrived a little early but it wasn’t a problem, Christian was ready for us. He took great care of us. We saw local neighborhoods and beautiful scenery on the way to the two amazing beaches! Make sure you bring a bandana/buff. If you are in the Tamarindo area, you can’t miss this fun excursion!

CR Tamarindo Catamaran Tour – Sunset Cruise, Open Bar & Snorkel

Stephanie_G, Jan 2026

Incredible sunset from the water

Wonderful catamaran cruise and great snorkeling! The boat was big and even though there were a number of people on the cruise, it didn't feel crowded. The snorkeling was fantastic and we got to see a lot fish! The sunset was absolutely stunning! Definitely worth the money and a great experience.

ATV and Zipline Combo Tour from Tamarindo or Conchal or Riu Hotel

Warren_B, Jan 2026

We highly recommend this...

We highly recommend this combination of ATV touring and zip lining. My wife and I each drove our own ATVs. There was instruction and a little practice area that allowed us to become familiar with the vehicles. Our Tour Leader, Hilmar, was WONDERFUL and provided great instruction. The ride up to the zip lining course took about 25 minutes. There were two guides who expertly led us down the 9 different zip lines. The duration was about 45 minutes. At the bottom, Hilmar was waiting with our ATVs, to lead us on the 25 minute trip back to main office. The ATV ride is very dusty. Definitely wear a bandana across your face and clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty.
