Best trip ever! - Had a great tour Guide Enrico and our driver Kiki they both were the best……. they gave us very special attention at each stop, helps me with getting in and out of the van (a newer Mercedes Step-van). We saw a lot, great shopping stop, took us to a great lunch stop, that I’m sure that only the locals knew about, they made a special stop for me to acquire a special gift that I was looking for then took us to a supermarket to buy adult beverages and water to take back to the cruise ship. Couldn’t have asked for a better day, thank you Enrico and Kiki. !

Better than expected! - We had the best english speaking your guide today named Ronnie, who went out of his way to make sure you were enjoying yourself and satisfied. The tour company should consider Ronnie very valuable as he recovered a mistake the operator made. Our driver Ricardo was also very good and safe. i would recommend the sightseeing tour but make sure you reconfirm with the tour operator the night before

Nice tour! - Juan and Kiki(our driver) were great hosts and representatives of Costa Rica. Took us all over and were great about pointing out local foliage and wildlife. A very enjoyable day.

Nice little tour. We enjoyed it very much. - We experienced Costa Rica even though limited in mobility. Length of tour was just right. Tour guide and driver were excellent. We saw parrots,monkeys and crocodiles and the countryside. Number of stops was just right. Small group,clean air conditioned vehicle.

Guide was Great - Albert was the perfect guide. English was fantastic and the information he shared was interesting. The best part is he did not talk too much--just right.

Puntarenas was okay. - The tour guide was excellent but waiting in the van for people who were supposed to travel with other companies was not nice. These people had to go on a crocodile river cruise so our van had to bring them in and back wasting time that resulted in us not seeing a portion of the monkeys that we really wanted to see. I do applaud the collaboration with Viator and other travel firms and helping each other.

Not bad but not great - Good vehicle and driver and guide
Of the tour stops just the monkeys and shopping stops were interesting
The other 4 were disappointing

No - Waited 1 hour for more people and to try to get more people to join us. We never saw monkeys as they don't come out if it's too hot. So why did he wait till late afternoon to see them. Then we spent a lot of time raking people to a different tour. We never saw the church because we were running so late, but he offered to stop on the roadside so people could take a picture of our ship at a dirty port. Never again
