Sloths, wildlife, coffee, chocolate and waterfalls - The tour was amazing! We got to see how coffee and chocolate is produced in Costa Rica! After that, we went on a sloth tour which was magnificent as we got to see over 5 sloths up close and in their natural habitat. Finally, getting to see the Rio Celeste Waterfall was stunning. Our guide Estéban was engaging and very enthusiastic which helped guide the group the whole day. I would recommend this tour to anyone who loves nature. It was an unforgettable experience.

5 stars - My husband and I traveled to Costa Rica in May and this was one of the tours we took. We had Esteban and Mauricio (Maui) as our guides. We were lucky to have Maui as our driver twice—he got us to our destinations safely and on time. Esteban was incredibly dedicated and shared a wealth of information, not just about the specific tour, but about Costa Rica as a whole. Esteban did say they don't always see tuscans, but if we all brought the right energy then we might just see them and guess what? Our group must have been packed with positive energy because we saw tuscans during the one of the tours and while we were having lunch; I could've attempted to touch one of of them at the restaurant if I wanted too (that's how close they were!). Overall, if you're second guessing to book this tour - just do it! You won't regret it.

Terrific tour experience! - Excellent tour, fun guide. We saw sloths, monkeys, snakes, frogs, and birds that our guide was able to identify for us. We loved the coffee and cacao tour, as well. Terrific experience.

I would do it again - The tour was amazing. The waterfall was magical, and the coffee/chocolate farm was both fun and educational. Isaac was an excellent tour guide and was extremely knowledgeable about Costa Rica and the wildlife.
