Small Group Walking Tour - Enrique was our guide. He was excellent - personable and knowledgeable. We touched on all the most important historical and architectural elements of the downtown area. There were only four of us which made it very nice.

Great guide, great info - Enrique was very knowledgeable and friendly. He set a good pace for us older people and was very clear. The historical information was just right for us - we knew very little about Costa Rica.

Discovering downtown San Jose - The guide was very knowledgeable. After spending a week in San Jose he took us to many areas we had not yet discovered on our own and gave us the historic context for what we were seeing. It definitely was worth the cost of the tour!

A great insight to Costa Rican culture and history - A fantastic insight into Costa Rican history and culture brought to life by our fabulous guide, Franklin. San Jose isn’t a traditionally beautiful city but we loved exploring its markets, coffee shops, museums, churches and government buildings as well as learning more about its inspiring birth as an independent country.
