Just being out in the country side and in the rivers was a great experience. We had a great guide and they took us down to the beach to spend some time. Very fun and I would definitely recommend this adventure.

Not worth the money

Virginia_H, Aug 2024

We paid for private tour but they tried to put us with another group because we were late arriving, but it was due to holiday traffic. We were picked up exactly when the driver stated. And then they told us we were not gonna see the waterfalls because that was for a four hour tour and we only paid for a two hour tour. I showed them the website that stated the tour we paid for would include waterfall. We did get a private tour guide and the trip was beautiful however it ended after one and a half hours and we had not seen the waterfall. They stated they were putting us in a van to go to a much smaller waterfall which was not what we paid for.

Hi Virginia, We were talking about the description to the Viator team because it was generated by "Their team" which we think is AI, so they will correct the description in the following 7 days. Feel free to talk to them about compensation because they are the only ones responsible to edit and add waterfalls to our tour description. If you are a new traveller reading this, please be aware that this tour does not include crocodile tours or waterfall visits. Deyvis TOP Costa Rica

Would do it all over again!!

Awesome experience!! From our pickup driver, Yessenia, to our tour guide, Enrique, it was hands down a great experience all the way around. Essentially was very knowledgeable of the region as we drove to Jaco Beach and Enrique was a great tour guide during our ATV experience. We drove through jungle, rainforest, streams and all the way to the beach. There was also a photographer waiting at specific photo op locations ready to take pics of us as we drove by which ended up being the best pics we got.

My favorite ATV tour yet

Antoinette_F, Oct 2023

I loved every bit of this tour! Safety first was the overall them of the trip but they alao allowed us to open up and get messy and muddy!!! Enrique was an excellent tour guide. He answered all of our questions about the land and country, as well as gave us some interesting facts about the area. I would definitely recommend, and even do this tour again.

Soo much fun!

Kia_M, Oct 2023

Enrique was the greatest. We had a blast!! The sights were wonderful and Enrique made sure we safely had an enjoyable experience.

Great Costa Rica Excursion!

Cynthia_T, Dec 2020

Albert our guide/driver was excellent! Albert was very pleasant, friendly, patient, and helpful. Our ATV tour at Riders ATV was very good - a lot of fun! Everyone, (at the restaurant and the horseback riding location), throughout the day was welcoming and very kind.
