Costa Rica with Eddie and Viator - We took the 4 in 1 tour with our experienced guide Eddie. It turned out to be a most wonderful time. He picked us up at our hotel and whisked us off to the volcano. During the excursion we experienced a mud bath, a hike in the jungle where we saw a lot of wildlife. We had lunch at a family ran restaurant in the rain forest. We ended the day with a dip in the blue river. Thanks to our guide “Ready Eddie”. He was charming to talk with ans knew the history and story around all the incredible places we saw.

So much fun packed into... - So much fun packed into one day. Each stop was its own experience. Ask for Eddie as your guide. He was full of information and joy for his country.

Must do experience! - My friend and I wanted to go to arenel volcano but it was 4 hours away so we decided on this tour and it was the best decision. Our your guide Alex from Viator was beyond amazing. Not only was he friendly and knowledgeable but he went the extra mile and stopped on the side of the road for us to grab some homemade empanadas and pineapple juice which was by far the best I’ve had. Then we went to our first destination to the rainforest and we had Juan Carlos as our tour guide who also was knowledgeable but also let’s us witch a sloth. There were so many animals and plants to see. It was just beautiful. We then proceeded to the blue river which was also very cool but it was a bit of a hike on the way back up. Then for our final destination of the hot springs/mud bath and volcano that was really something to see. Overall it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend and do it again. Thanks Alex and Juan Carlos you guys were great!
