So much fun!!!
My husband and I had a great time from the moment we stepped on the boat until the moment we stepped off. Erin was our guide and he was excellent along with his crewmates who made the entire trip very enjoyable. They are constantly making sure that we were all set with whatever we needed. The boat ride was great, the snorkeling was fabulous, had so much fun on the boat ride and hiking. They served an excellent lunch and just made the whole day a pleasure. Would definitely recommend this trip to anybody who is interested and would myself book again with Costa Cat.

Great fun!
It was great fun and challenging going up the trail in the rain, a nice hike up to the waterfall and then a cool water fall to jump into.
William and his assistant were very friendly, funny and helpful
I would highly recommend this site. William explained everything and they took good care of everyone in their part.

1st time jumping through a waterfall!
We had an incredible experience! I’m an adrenaline junky and this definitely passed the test. Our guide Matt, was super cool and made sure we had a great time. The 20 ft cliff jump into the waterfall was the highlight! You literally jump through the falls. Thanks Matt!

Jungle Birthday Fun
My husband and best friend celebrated my birthday with Dennis driving through the lush mountains and jungles of Costa Rica. Dennis was very accommodating, thoughtful and polite. He was the host with the most and made our experience very memorable. It was a very fun and educational adventure. A must do, even if only for the views and all their glory alone!

Kid-Friendly and fun for all ages.
Very fun experience. We purposely chose the 7am time. It was basically a private tour for us and our two kids. Both children (ages 7 and 10) enjoyed the ride. Horses were very well behaved and trained. Our guide was very kind and patient. He took videos and pictures of us during the ride and during our stop at the beach. The ride was very peaceful. Highly recommend!

Wonderful! Tons of wildlife!
I took my 3 year old on this boat ride by myself and it was absolutely wonderful. We saw over 10 small crocodiles and two large crocodiles, one of them completely out of the water. We also saw a ton of cool birds, including rosette spoonbills. The guide was so kind and they were respectful to the animals. Highly recommend.

Excellent time in Eze and Monaco
We had a fantastic time touring and our guide Zara was excellent. She was informative, pleasant and entertaining. My teenage kids especially enjoyed the rides to and from our destination. Lots of interesting facts shared with humour as well. Plenty of time shared to walk around and take I the sites and the operation was like clock work.

Super fun tour! Great guides!
We did this tour with my family of 8 people- all over 21 years old. Some choose to ride solo while others paired up. They were super accommodating of whatever people preferred. There is a locker area at the check in location to store belongings / change of clothes for after the tour. The ATVs do have a storage compartment that you can fit a small bag to take along with you. We started with guides Marco & Jose who were FANTASTIC! So friendly, fun, made everyone feel confident on the ATVs & they gave clear instructions! The tour starts with getting helmets and a little ATV lesson. Then a quick spin around the little practice track (smile for pictures) & then off you go! You take a few minute ride on the road to the first panoramic view of the ocean — absolutely stunning! Plenty of time to take pictures and ask about the sights in the distance. Then off to the next lookout spot which was s suspended bridge/lookout which was great for more pictures! From there we went to an area to look for some wildlife. We got to see some sloths in the trees! The guides were so knowledgable and helped spot them. They gave us cold water which was much needed and so refreshing! Then off to the final spot - the waterfalls. Once we arrived to the area, we walked about 5 minutes to the waterfall! It was so gorgeous & fun! Got to jump into a pool about 8 ft deep and then climbed a little more to the waterfall pool where you could take pictures under the waterfall ! It was so refreshing after getting dusty and dirty throughout the tour! From there we headed back toward the starting point. Enjoyed fresh fruit provided to us. We were able to purchase photos from the gift shop (but we did have our phones with us throughout the tour and took tons on our own so no need but nice to have if you want too). Overall we would give this experience a 10/10. It was the perfect activity for our family to get out, have a little adventure but not take up an entire day. We would highly recommend to anyone! Marco & Jose made it such a fun day! Tips: wear closed toe shoes that you don’t care about, you will get dirty (it was dry season for us so very dusty but part of the fun). Wear a bathing suit or clothes you dont mind jumping in the water in.

Great Service
Our driver was at the airport holding a sign with our name when we arrived so we didn't have to wait. He offered to let us stop along the route to souvenir shop and get some authentic Costa Rican food. He also pointed out some historic sites that we passed and took time to explain the history of some of the roads we traveled on. Unfortunately they were doing construction work on one of the bridges that we had to pass which made our trip extremely long, but that was out of his control and he did what he could to still make sure the trip was enjoyable. I would definitely use this service again!!!

Fun time
We brought a group of 19 college students. The guides are great, they speak good English, and they were very charismatic with us. Zip lining was our favorite, then repelling. The horseback riding was fun, ATVing was good too, but they don’t let you go very fast, which was a bummer.

Take your teens here!
Jesus took care of us all day, most important making sure we were having FUN! It helped that the two other groups were game to have as much fun as our 2 teenagers. Rappelling this during the dry season could have passed, but still exciting for us and we want to try again when more water flow. Zippling was a blast as we were encourage to go upside down, run off platform as we’ve done this a few times. Lunch was amazing and then the ATVs! My boys were thinking it would be boring —- it was not! As experienced riders we were able to use our skills and ride the course, go over rivers, take some chances within risks! If there was 6 stars for this I’d give it.

Great excursion … good value for money
Well managed excursion company with excellent staff. ATVs were in good shape … you transfer to another location for the Zip Line which was new and shiny with amazing staff. Hellen was great confirming the excursion and great on the desk. Mary was a great host on the Zip Line. The included lunch was top notch and if asked … ask for the waterfall experience where you can jump / dive into the waterfall basin.
