Exploring JACO in dune buggy - Had a great time with sister going on the dune buggy tour. Met Danny which was very knowledgeable and pleasant to be around. We went up to a restaurant on top of mountains and met dueña Martha who’s food was delicious and got to learn how she started her business. Danny if you’re reading this contact my big sister on IG: Lizz79 or email [email protected] ,as we would like to trade info in regards to completing tours next time we’re in town. Look forward to hearing from you! Pura vida 😌I SAW THE preciosos 🦥 in manual NP. lol, and other animals, while wearing my glasses! 🤓 overall had a blast on this tour with AXR.

Must Do in Jaco - AXR is top notch! The service team and guide were incredible. The team helping us plan our 2 hr. adventure was very accommodating and went above and beyond to get us set up with a tour for the afternoon we were spending in Jaco. Our guide, Ninja, knew the region well and made our tour one of the best parts of our trip. I was particularly excited to stop at a roadside cafe that allowed me to converse with a great host that was proud to share lovely facts about this region and introduced me to truly local insights. 10/10 - would recommend!

So much fun!! - We had a great time on our buggy tour with Jan. This was the last excursion we took on our two week trip, and it was a great finale!!
My wife wasn't a huge fan because of the speed in which we traveled through the jungle. She is a stop and soak in the beauty kind of gal and didn't like that we sped past so much beauty without being able to stop and enjoy it all. She did love the waterfalls and being able to swim, though.
My father-in-law and I LOVED every aspect of the tour. My father-in-law drove and wished he could have taken in more of the scenery but fully enjoyed himself other than that.
The only thing that could have made it better for me would have been to drive and make it to the waterfalls myself. I'm in a wheelchair though and knew those things weren't an option for me.
I would recommend this tour and would gladly do it again.

Best Part of Our Trip! - I picked this tour for my family which consisted of myself, my wife, and our two kids age 4 and 1. We had an incredible experience! It was super fun to drive around and see the incredible views as we drove up the mountain. Everything went very smoothly and our guide was very personable and friendly. I can’t recommend this tour enough! This was our favorite part of our trip to Costa Rica!

A wonderful experience - Gabriel went above and beyond! He took us to the most amazing places - a mango farm, a waterfall, and stopped along the way to show us interesting plants and trees. It was truly a wonderful experience. Thank you!

AXR, The Highlight of our Jaco CR Trip - David did an amazing job taking us up and through the mountains to waterfalls and creeks. We had lunch at a fabulous restaurant along our mountain path. The food was delicious. David was very patient and professional. No trip to Javo is complete without an AXR ATV Tour!

Do not report on deposit collection - When you arrive at AXR de Jacó, they charge you a deposit of $1500, according to them, to cover possible damage to the vehicle (buggie), a deposit that when buying online the tour is not mentioned, nor informed in previous contacts with the operator via WhatsApp.
Outside of this, tour guide Daniel, was very friendly.

SCAM!! UNPROFFESSIONAL - AXR (AN EXTREME RIDER) Costa Rica Off Road LTDA
I recently had a very disappointing and concerning experience with AXR (AN EXTREME RIDER), also known as Costa Rica Off Road LTDA. On September 26, 2024, my friends and I rented 7 Talons and one ATV, putting down a deposit of $7,000.
From the start, there were major red flags. I was pressured to name all the drivers and sign on their behalf, which felt rushed and unprofessional. We received no safety advice, training, or information about the challenging paths we would be navigating.
Unfortunately, one of my friends, who was a first-time driver, rolled one of the vehicles. While damages occurred, the management claimed the cost was exactly $7,000—an amount that felt extremely suspicious. They then offered a cash settlement of $5,000, which I refused because I believed the actual damages were around $3,000. I felt immense pressure and decided to leave it on my card, hoping to dispute the charges later.
I would NEVER recommend this company or any of its affiliates. They provide no insurance, lack professionalism, and prioritize profit over customer safety. This operation feels like a complete scam. Save yourself the trouble and look elsewhere for an adventure in Costa Rica!
