So much fun! Our guide, Reynols, was amazing! He had such a great personality, was excited about the tour, very knowledgeable of the history & local facts, stopped to show us monkeys, took us to a gorgeous beach to enjoy his friend’s pina coladas, and paid attention to safety. Top notch & would highly recommend!

Had a great time ATVing with Gustavo as the tour guide. Made sure we were safe and very friendly and knowledgeable overall. Would recommend 506 tours!

Fun and exciting for my 16 old son and his friends and for myself and adult friends. Our guides were great! Visiting the private, secluded beach was our favorite part.
Make sure you purchase or bring something to cover nose and mouth. It is very dusty during the dry season. This was the kids favorite activity of the trip.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re really happy to hear that both the teens and adults had such a great time—that’s exactly what we aim for. It’s awesome that the secluded beach was a highlight for you, it’s definitely a special spot.
We also appreciate the tip about the dust during dry season—that’s very helpful for future guests to know. And we’ll make sure to pass along your kind words to our guides, they’ll love hearing it.
We’re glad it was the kids’ favorite activity of the trip, and we’d love to have you all back for another adventure soon!

The secluded beaches we visited were beautiful! The kids loved playing in the waves. We saw two families of howler monkeys during the tour.
There is a photographer who follows the group to take pictures, but you have to pay if you want the images. Bring a face covering (or buy one there for $5). It’s very dusty! You, your clothes, and your belongings will be covered in dust, so it’s helpful to wear old clothes and bring a trash bag to put your backpack in.

The whole trip was well organized right from our pick up to our drop off.For our family we got a ATV and a UTV.My teenage son 17 was able to comfortably manuver the UTV .The drive was adventurous through country roads and a stop at the beach. You are for sure going to get covered in dirt.
Our guide hellmar focussed on safety and kept checking on the group at all times.He gave a brief intro about the topography and animals that we spotted enroute. At the end of the trip we were served with cut pineapple which was quite refreshing after the long drive.
There was a tad bit of delay with our return and the owner Vanessa personally dropped us back at the hotel.

This was great!! I loved seeing local Costa Rican neighborhoods on back roads. We even drove through a small creek! The tour guide, Hilmar was great, very friendly and clear on the at we should expect. We got to see one of the most beautiful beaches also, which was a treat. It’s dusty, and you will need to shower afterward. Bring a bandana.

Be prepared if you booked a UTV that you’re expecting to have a cover for shade- some of them do not have a cover over the top. Bring a buff or they charge you $5 a person. Our guide was good but not sure I would recommend the company when they falsely advertise a different UTV that they offer (not the guides fault).

Our group of six people had a fun time on this excursion. The ATV's were in good condition. The guides were friendly and fun. They took us to several beaches and it was fun driving through typical Costa Rican neighborhoods. This was well worth the money and I would do it again. A few in our group said it was their favorite thing they did on our trip.

So much fun! We chose the 2 person dune buggies as we were riding with kids. Fun that everyone was in the front. We also got to see beautiful beaches and a whole family of monkeys at one of our stops. Gustavo was a great tour guide! Highly recommend!

It was ok, be sure to wear your googles and face cloth, it was very dusty.
I wasn’t told to put on my googles because I wear glasses and didn’t think it would fit over but they did. I wish to tour guide had informed us of use it and cover your face properly. We only visited the beaches, but would have preferred to do some forest area as well.

Cristian was a fantastic guide. He spotted some howler monkeys and stopped for us to get pictures and videos and the place that he took us to for Pina Colada's was so good that we went back on our own the next day for more. It was just me and my husband on the tour too which was nice. Would definitely recommend.

The tour was very fun we stopped at two beaches. The first one was beautiful the second wasn’t bad. We felt safe. The only thing o wouldn’t recommend is the photo package it was split between two groups so we didn’t get the full experience photo wise. Also the front office wasn’t friendly and slightly rude. The tour guide himself was nice.

Great experience where we got to cruise around at a great speed. Vehicles worked perfectly. Juan, our guide, was AWESOME. Took lots of pictures of us and was great with our two families including 4 kids. Delicious fresh pineapple after the tour. Beautiful views and even got to see monkeys!

We opted for the private tour, which was a $50 upgrade. The company was on time for pick up and we were paired with Gustavo for the tour. This was our first time ATVing and it was easy to operate and follow the directions given by our guide. We stopped at two beaches. We opted to have a drink at the small restaurant instead of jump in the water. Our guide seemed to really love his job and was a lot of fun to ride around with for the day. We got water and pineapple at the end and stopped a few times along the way for photos. Bring a bandana because the roads are VERY dusty and you are sometimes behind a car or other ATVs. I would definitely recommend this tour company and activity to others in the area. It was a great way to see local beaches and backroads of Costa Rica. Machines were well maintained and all guides seemed very nice.

Great experience with our kids. Fun ATV tour started inland, drove through local villages/towns, over some more mountainous/rugged terrain, ended at some very cool and beautiful beaches. Be prepared to get dusty!
