Experience Rainforest with RFE - The guides and driver (Issac and Eduardo) were simple awesome. Explained things in detail, with good emphasis on safety at every step. We were never rushed as we cruised the river. Took time to show us various animals along the way. One of us wasn’t feeling well and they were extra mindful and adapted the tour accordingly. We will go back again in near future and you can guess who we will call.

Adventurous Tour - I really enjoyed seeing the different animals with our tour guide Billy. I loved how peaceful the boat ride on the river was. Billy also took us to the waterfall and a hike to see the beautiful volcano. Food provided was quite delicious.

A excellent and varied day. - We booked the 3 combo trip and it was amazing. Lazy boat down the river was the highlight and we had a guide who pointed out so much to us and was very knowledgeable. We stopped for a snack of fruit, cake and cheese which was lovely. Onto the waterfall - it’s a long walk down but do much harder coming back up🤣 but well worth the effort to enjoy a lovely swim. Lunch was very enjoyable. The volcano walk was very interesting. We had two different guides and both were excellent. Stopped to get brilliant views of volcano and saw a toucan close by. The organisation of this trip from pick up to drop off was effortless. A long day but incredible.

Amazing introduction to our first day in Costa - A perfect introduction to our first day in Costa Rica. The boat trip was incredible and we saw so much. The walk down to the waterfall was hard but certainly worth it. The hike at the volcano was amazing. The two different guides we had were very informative and the transport and organisation from one place to another was brilliant. The snack after the river trip and lunch after the waterfall were very very good.

It was very rainy and... - It was very rainy and cloudy the day of our tour so we weren’t able to see much on the volcano hike. The waterfall was beautiful. Lunch was amazing and one of the best meals that we had! Our favorite part was the river safari. We saw lots of wildlife including lots of howler monkeys. Oscar was an amazing tour guide and Jaime was a great driver!

It's not five stars just... - It's not five stars just because they have pick-ups and drop offs of customers between activities. Activities and lunch were great. The best way to see wildlife is on boat tour and that was our experience after having done many different activities over a week in CR. Just the travel between activities and picking up customers felt like waste of time.
