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!

Great experience! Wonderful guide who did not rush us and was great with the kids. We did go in April, during the dry season, it was very dusty and a mask/ bandana was needed!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you for your review! We're delighted you had a great experience with our guide. Your observation about the dry season is valuable—we encourage preparation for dust for future visits. We hope to see you again!

This was an amazing ATV ride. We stopped at a few beaches, saw some monkeys, and overall saw the culture of Costa Rica. I get nervous about ATV rides because sometimes the rides are really fast and we don’t get to experience much but this was one of THE BEST rides we got to experience. Christian was the best take us around.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled to hear you had such a fantastic time and enjoyed the sights of Costa Rica. We'll pass your kind words to Christian. We hope to see you on another adventure!

Christian was so nice! The ATV/UTV tour was fun and nice to be able to see a bit of the town and get a little dirty. The kids loved the zip lines, the people at the ranch were all so nice and hospitable. They kept us hydrated on a hot day.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the tour and that the zip lines were a hit with the kids. We truly value your feedback and appreciate your kind words about our staff.

Very fun ride with a chill and knowledge guide. Rode through hills, valleys and farms. Saw wildlife. Pirate beach was stunning, bring water shoes if you want to climb the rocks. Overall a great experience. Highly recommend.

Scammers, unsafe for tourists.
Very little instruction provided.
ATVs were in rough shape.
There are much better options in the area.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
The person of this comment is a fictitious person, a competitor trying to make us look bad, with no record of this person in our system. The comment was reported, but Viator is doing absolutely nothing, not even responding to the complaint.
Please don't fall for this fake review..

Awesome!!! Just the right amount of time. It was so nice to get out of the hotel and Christian was amazing.

Our tour was guided by Carlos, who was excellent in his presentation. He was able to tell us about the local people, the landscape and environment, and was very accommodating to what our group was interested in seeing. A great experience overall
Tiara_S, Feb 2026
It’s was really good our driver was excellent and took us to two beaches which we had a blast at. We saw monkeys and went threw some river spots along the tour. Highly recommend
Tyler_D, Feb 2026
Both guides did an amazing job, the water crossings were especially fun, and pirate’s beach was so cool! We were the only people there this morning!!
Nadia_L, Jan 2026
Was not like mentionned when I booked. Very bad experience. The way we were welcome, the explications on the vtt was not clear. We had to pay 6$ us for water at the bar but we were supposed to have some during the ride.
Response from Host, Jan 2026
We are truly sorry to hear that your experience did not meet the expectations set at the time of your booking. We take all feedback seriously and would like to address your concerns directly.
Regarding the welcome and explanations: We strive to provide clear instructions and a warm welcome to all our guests.We sincerely apologize if this was not your experience and will reinforce our training with the team to ensure it does not happen again. (I have many doubts about your reservation with us)
Concerning the water: It is our policy to provide complimentary water during the ride.
I apologize for repeating myself, but I find it very strange that a bottle costs $6. This price is very expensive, and frankly, I don't think this is the kind of bar or place we usually go to, but it is also your responsibility to accept this charge, again your review make me doubt if you did this tour with us , can’t find you on my record )
Please contact us directly at [info@pininosadventures.net ] so we can resolve this for you personally. We hope to have the opportunity to restore your faith in our service.

This ride was fun, and safe! Some of us were first timers, some were more experienced. It was fun riding through the dirt roads to get to the beaches. Our tour guide was great and he kept the pace just right. The tour company was very accommodating when one participant couldn’t make it last minute due to illness.
Response from Host, Dec 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're glad you enjoyed the ride and appreciated the tour guide and accommodations. Your feedback motivates us to keep providing enjoyable and flexible experiences for everyone.

We had a great time! Guides were friendly and engaging. We had a rider that was new and tried riding alone. They took back one quad and got a double no questions asked and were very understanding.
Michelle_F, Jul 2025
We had a great time! It was an easy trail to ride on with beautiful beaches to explore and the weather couldn’t have been more perfect
Lori_A, Jun 2025
Carlos was great. Great conversation on the way there sharing culture & other things to do. He made our ATV ride even more fun with some fun mud & water! Zipline was really fun as well great guides! Would recommend for sure!!!
Natasha_A, May 2025
The ATVs were fun! It wasn’t so much of an adventure as it was just driving the ATVs through the town to the beach, but our guide was very friendly.
Dee_H, Apr 2025

Pickuped and drop off on time from the hotel. Drove through the local roads and stopped at 2 beach areas. Had a nice smoothie at pirates? beach. Was hot so lots of dust while driving. Have a bandana to cover your face. Overpriced for the experience.
Response from Host, Mar 2025
Thank you for your feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the beaches and smoothie. We're sorry you found the experience overpriced; your comments will help us improve. A bandana tip is great advice for future travelers!( we offered you to used for $4 each and you

Super fun experience! Our guide Andres kept the excitement up as we traveled through trails & beaches. It was rainy & that was the best part navigating the puddles! He kept us at a good speed for our family. Would highly recommend this tour.

Professional guide, fun adventure. I would recommend. We drove ourselves to the start point, our family comprised the group, we had no experience on ATVs, and we had a blast!
Response from Host, Mar 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're thrilled you and your family had such a fun time, even as first-timers on ATVs. We hope to see you again for another adventure!
Rachel_M, Dec 2024
Amazing. Highly recommend! We did ATV and Canopy (zip line). Perfect pairing! Good for all ages and groups. The more people you are with, the longer the tour will take bout expect to spend about 3 hours on average. 1 hour ATV ride to zip line, 1 hour zip line tour, and about 30 minutes back (return ride was a little shorter). You will go through some small creeks, which is just challenging enough for all skill levels to hv fun! Back in those me for beach!
Response from Host, Dec 2024
Thank you for the fantastic review! We're thrilled you enjoyed the ATV and canopy tour. It's great to hear it suits various ages and skill levels. We hope to see you again for more adventures!

Great experience! Our guide was super super nice! Even helped us to spot monkeys on our ride! We went through big mud puddles, streams, the jungle and the beaches. And stopped for a beer. Couldn’t have asked for anything else. Thank you for being so easy to work with!

We're thrilled you enjoyed your adventure and the guide's assistance in spotting the monkeys! It sounds like you had an amazing time, and we're glad everything went smoothly. Thank you for sharing your experience!
