5.00Our tour was excellent!! Our personal tour guide, Fabio, really went out of his way to make our experience one to remember. Most definitely recommend this tour. My experience at the resort we stayed at was disappointing, but I can say Fabio "saved the day"! We'd definitely come back to visit Costa Rica and enjoy nature! Pura Vida! Thank you, Fabio!
The most delightful day getting up close and personal with Costa Rica’s beauty!

5.00I had the most astonishing experience of my life seeing sloths 2 foot away. Tocans flying around like normal birds. Yellow vipers and Blue frogs. The local guide walking us through the family ranch sacurary stopped at a large black rock, which was 5 foot tall and a termite hill, only seen in the movies. She stuck a large stick into the mound and pulled out 100's of small black termites grabbed a handful and popped into her mouth; and, then handed the stick for me to try, not to be out done by a 5 foot local gal, I ate a handful and they tasted like black licorice, she laughed at my face. She said now you know how to survive in the rainforest if lost. This tour is worth every dime. Especially if Fabio guides you. We stopped at lunch at a butterfly sacurary, ate local fruit off trees and even visited a brewery on the way home. Fabio speaks English and goes the extra mile, next on the list is river tubing.
