Top Costa Rica Outdoor Activities

This boat ride was comfortable and accommodating. Rode along the coast and even got to see a mother Humpback whale and her baby. Snorkeling was a bit packed but was able to see about 5 different types of fish. The slide and jumping off the deck was awesome. Food was great. We all loved it.

Thoroughly enjoyed this informative experience. This isn’t a big commercial thing- it’s family owned. Our tour guide showed us the tools his father and grandfather used to harvest the cacao beans for generations. I highly recommend! A few things that aren’t in the booking info- 1. You don’t need any special shoe, but I’d recommend sneakers. I wore flip flops and got a few little bug bites walking through the property. Not a must, but I wished I’d worn closed toe. 2. They give TONS of fruit samples that were absolutely delicious, in addition to a chocolate banana at the start. Unexpected treat! Highly recommend Don Olivo- kind family and informative tour!

This is by far one of the most fun snorkel cruises we have been on. I went with my teenage daughter. There were people of all ages on board. Austin is a wonderful guide and the entire crew was great. We had so much fun. For a snorkel cruise, the food was excellent, it was fresh and grilled, not what I expected. I would take this cruise over and over again.

Johnny was great! Very knowledgeable and didn't rush the tour. We went in the afternoon due to a earlier commitment. We thought we were not going to see the monkeys but we did at the last minute and he just let us take it all in. Lunch was amazing and our group with kids were so friendly. Overall such a great experience!

We had a great experience and the tour was awesome! The guides were amazing especially our guide Josue. He did an excellent job pointing out animals and informing us on everything. Overall it was a great experience and would definitely recommend if you’re trying to hit all the spots in La Fortuna but be prepared for a long but fun day!

This place came highly rated and it didn't disappoint. Our tour guide was Cesar, who was amazing. He was friendly, funny, and knowledgeable. The tasting was more generous than I expected, and the bonbons making was so much fun. What I didn't expect was the homemade chocolate drink that the group made collectively. Cesar did a great job of group participation. I highly recommend this tour to anyone in the area. We arrived early, so we ordered some empanadas and fruit drinks. Best of each we've had thus far on our trip.

We had an amazing time white water rafting! The scenery was beautiful, the rapids were exciting, and the whole experience was well organized from start to finish. Our guide, Kevin, was absolutely awesome. He was knowledgeable, funny, and made us feel safe and confident the entire trip. His instructions were clear, and he kept the group entertained while making sure everyone had a great time. Kevin truly made the experience unforgettable. We would definitely come back and highly recommend this rafting company.

This excursion was unique in getting to see animals at night in their natural habitat. We saw many birds, bats, black & green iguanas, a yellow Boa constrictor, frongs, colonies of termites & ants, as well as a large variety of foliage. Our guide Andersen and the boat captain were determined to give us a great experience to the point that they got out of the boat and pulled us through the extra shallow waters when necessary. The guides were friendly with other boats, each sharing any sights that they saw so that all tourists could have the best experience in the wild. Anderson repeatedly checked in to see that everyone's questions were answered and that all were having a good time. The boat captain maneuvered the boat in ways so that people sitting on either side were able to have a good view of each animal, allowing plenty of time for photographs. Seeing the animals still and sleeping provided a unique experience to really enjoy their true beauty. Anderson was incredibly friendly and engaging with both kids and adults, ensuring we all had a great experience. The only recommendation I would give is to provide brighter flashlights for each passenger. If you choose to embark on this excursion I recommend light pants, tank, and lightweight long-sleeved shirt, as well as spraying yourself with bug spray, as there are a fair bit of mosquitoes but manageable if dressed appropriately. I found that having my long hair down with a hat helped to keep the bugs away from my neck and face. Bringing a small personal flashlight would be helpful. As some of the lights provided were very dim with limited battery life. Our 4 young kids greatly enjoyed this adventure!
