Wonderful trip and amazing guide! - Lenny was our guide. She was punctual and so friendly. We were impressed with her knowledge of Costa Rican history, fun facts, and just general info about each place we stopped. Lunch was really good and the view was beautiful. I highly recommend this tour and request Lenny if you can. You will not be disappointed!!

Lenny was great and exceeded expectations - Lenny, our guide, was punctual, professional, knowledgeable, and ensured every participant had a great time. I got far more out of this tour than I anticipated as we visited a beautiful park and Basilica prior to the volcano—which was a cool experience—and a local restaurant on the way back down. This is well worth the price and a great half day trip from San Jose.

Irazu in clouds - A very nice tour of the volcano through an interesting landscape. Unfortunately, the clouds took away our view a bit.

Great experience but lacks in detail - The time we spent at the volcano crater was sufficient. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly. We gave a review of 4 stars because the tour description stated wifi and snacks were included and they were not.

Quite the Experience - The views look nothing like the photos on your ad. Nevertheless, it is an amazing view. I suggest you list photos that resemble the view as it is now. Rachel does a great job of.coordinating and sharing key facts in both languages. The visit to the basicala was interesting as well

Waste of time. - Signed up for the trip, but got cancelled in the last minute without telling me anything. Waste my whole day as it is too late to sign up anything else. Not responsible behavior at all!
