Perfect way to start your visit! - This is a great tour to do as soon as you arrive in Jaco. The tour guide is knowledgeable, flexible and fun. You learn plenty about the town and its talented artists. In summer months go very early. It gets warm.

Very interesting and great tour guide. - Our experience with Josue was great! He was a very pleasant and positive person who you could tell really likes his job. We went on early on Sunday morning to Jako street art tour and it was a great time to walk around and see the city and learn not only about the art but also a little history. I would definitely recommend.

Best Jaco Tour Guide - Josue was my tour guide. This was my first trip to Jaco, and the first morning I arrived, travelling solo too. He really spent time to show me the art and also answer my other random questions about the town. He English is fantastic. Really amazing tour guide, really cares about his guests.

Totally enjoyed our Guided Walking Street Art and Gaffiti Tour! - We really enjoyed the guided walking street Art & Graffiti Tour with Josue. Fortunately there were only my friend and I on the tour, so we had the opportunity to have many in depth and thought provoking conversations with Josue. He was very knowledgable about the art murals, graffiti as well as the history of Jaco. Josue encouraged us to look closely at each mural and challenged us to explore what we saw and experienced (in a good way). He pointed out many intricacies in the paintings that we might have otherwise missed. Josue was flexible and attentive to our preferences/needs. At one point in the very hot morning we decided to enjoy our cold beverage at the Green Room rather than wait till the end of our tour. Both Judy and I would highly recommend the guided walking Street Art Tour with Josue.

Fascinating and highly recommended tour with an engaging and passionate guide - We discovered this guided tour by chance on Trip Advisor, but it honestly should be much higher on the list of things to do in Jaco. Our guide, Josue, is passionate, intelligent and very engaging. His insights and knowledge sparked our curiosity and gave us a much deeper appreciation of all the street art we were shown, some of which were in private locations that we wouldn’t otherwise have been able to access. The murals and graffiti themselves were spectacular and we gained real insights into the culture of Costa Rica as a whole and, more locally of the Puntarenas region. After the tour Josue took us to a great café, the Green Room, for a much needed fruit juice and more engaging conversation about the art, culture and customs of Costa Rica. We highly, highly recommend this tour. Thanks again Josue, Kirsten and Ceri
