What are people saying about Jaco

Brittany_J, Aug 2026

We had an amazing trip...

We had an amazing trip and would highly recommend this experience! Everything from pick up to drop off was extremely convenient and easy. We enjoyed all of the activities. The sub wings, in particular, were a unique and fun experience for everyone. The breakfast and lunch were delicious and we enjoyed the homemade Costa Rican food. Robert was a great guide and made sure that we were entertained and happy the entire day! There’s no better way to see Tortuga Island, and this was one of the highlights of our entire trip in Costa Rica.

Wonderful experience

We had a wonderful time. Our guide, Sebastien, was so knowledgeable and kind. He answered all our kids' questions and had so many fun and interesting facts to share with us. We learned so much, the views were stunning, and the ride was just fun! Cannot recommend highly enough.

3-Hour ATV Jungle Waterfall Adventure

Mark_R, Aug 2026

Just Do It!

Kiko was our guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly guy. Told us all about the flora and fauna we say along the way. We went to a local farm at the top of the mountain that served homemade empanadas and multi fruit smoothly. Both were excellent! Highly recommended!

Must Do Tour

One of the best jungle experiences I’ve ever had. Our guide Dustin showed us a ton of different foods/ plants/ animals along the way. The hike in was gorgeous and the waterfalls were a must do for anyone in the area. Super fun and a great time to cool off in spring fed water. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

This was hands-down the best experience of my trip I came as a solo traveler for my 30th birthday and when I tell you the service I and the other guests received was top-notch on top of the experience just being such a memorable one this is a MUST do.

Mark_A, Aug 2026

ATV and Wayerfall blast

My family had so much fun on the AT excursion! The trails and splashing is a blast. Nothing too scary and we always felt safe with our guide who was constantly turning back to check on us. Jeremy was our guide and he was very fun and kind. The stop at the top for a view was amazing, and the jump into the cool waterfalls was more than refreshing! We would definitely do this again!

Monkey Mangrove tour

Crazy Alex is The Man!!!

Request Crazy Alex & he will show up...doesn't disappoint!! He even helped other tour guides give the people a great experience. Been training the animals for 5 years to come to him & he can make all the sounds. He is personable and so much fun!!! I greeted us at our van with a monkey call. 😂 Be sure to bring cash so you can tip him well. His eye for finding animals is incredible!! This man even went up to a Viper snake in flip flops to get photos for us! Highly recommend Crazy Alex!!!

Jaco Beach Costa Rica Horseback Riding

michael_c, Jul 2026

Great experience

We had a wonderful time on our horseback tour. We went through old plantation fields crossed a river and went to the beach. Our Guild was very polite, knowledgeable and helpful. He took pictures for us as we rode. He spotted our first sloth of our trip and seen some monkeys. Overall we had a great time, well worth the money and time.

Chocolate Experience in Jaco Beach and Los Suenos

Amanda_D, Jun 2026

Must do activity !

We loved Los Suenos Adventure Park so much we came back another day to do their chocolate experience. This was an informational tour as well as interactive. Mary was our tour guide and she did a wonderful job with keeping this tour engaging with the information she provided. Mary was so impressive with the way she explained the necessary steps it takes to make chocolate from a cocoa bean. Once you get the plant/bean tour you get to step into the kitchen where they break down how to actually make the chocolate and this is where it gets interactive. Jordan, along with Mary, then assist with all the steps necessary to go from bean to chocolate. During this time you are eating and trying the different process of chocolate throughout. We were so blown a way with how fun this experience was and how memorable our time was! Definitely a must do experience.

5 Hour Off-Road ATV+ Zipline+ Waterfall Rappelling+ Tractor Jungle Tour

Whitney_L, Jun 2026

Best day ever!

This was such a fun day!! Jesus, Ricardo and Andy took such great care of us and explained things really well. They were patient and a ton of fun. We loved the waterfall and it was beautiful! Zip lining was great and they guide you along the way. ATVs were awesome. We were flying through the property, through mud, rivers, up hills and all over. We saw ATVs at another place and it was pretty lame, just a little course. This was the opposite. They also had two cute dogs that we fell in love with. One didn’t have a name we so named her Puma. Interested to see if it sticks. 10/10

Jungle Crocodile Safari: Tarcoles River Crocodile Tour

Katie_S, Apr 2026

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.
