Review of Guanacaste Viajes and Tours
Our guide was amazing. We did the Waterfall and Sloth tour since we couldnt do many adventures. Not only was it very private, but everything was very clean and the tours were great. What was even more amazing is we were ahead of schedule with the Waterfall and we made an additional stop at the coffee tour to take a quick look. The booking was easy and the owner made sure it was tailored for my wife which is pregnant. The lunch was also spectacular and had the opportunity to try the local casado con Pollo and the delicious fresh juices.

4 leg trip for a party of six…very positive experience!
Tripadvisor review: Guanacaste Viajes and Tours
We are a party of 6 with teenagers, and we booked 4 transfers with this business, ranging from 1.5 hours to 5.5 hours. Guanacaste drivers (Herman, Fabian, Jose and Manuel) were all on-time, very friendly and knowledgeable. We enjoyed each ride and learned something about Costa Rica on each drive. The drivers were always willing to stop for lunch, souvenirs or to see some giant crocodiles! Without question, we would use this business again. Very dependable from our experience.

Viator review: Mega Combo Zip Line Tour and Volcano Hot Spring
The mega combo zip line tour was one of the highlights of our trip in Costa Rica! Fabian was our tour guide and he was AMAZING! He stayed with us every step of the way and was extremely attentive. We were a family of 4. Two adults and two children, ages 9 and 12. My children had never zip lined and lived it! We loved the short horseback ride as well, you don’t need to know how to ride, the horse knows the trail, it’s super easy. The lunch was also delicious. We also did the slide which was SUPER fast but fun and the hot springs. Everything about this tour was great! If you only do one tour in Costa Rica, this is the tour to do! Thank you Fabian for a wonderful time!

Tripadvisor review: Guanacaste Viajes and Tours
We had the outstanding privilege of taking a week-long tour with Carlos from Guanacaste Viajes and Tours. It was an amazing experience. Our group was not only impressed with the beautiful country, but also Carlos’s excellent attention. Carlos picked up on individual interests that members of our group had and went out of his way to make our experience better. For example, he found out very quickly that I loved animals, and he gave me ideas of where I would be able to see certain animals throughout the tour. He was very down to earth and professional! My wife and I were taken to the airport by another representative of the company who was amazing as well! I loved that they were attentive to the unique needs of our group. I was very impressed and would highly recommend this company and Carlos specifically for your Costa Rica adventure!

Tripadvisor review: Rincon de la Vieja Hiking Tour and Waterfalls
Steven was a wonderful, charming and incredibly knowledgeable guide. Jose was a careful yet no-tarry-here driver. There were probably a hundred instances on our 3mile trek with Steven through rainforest, lava savannah, mud pots and boiling water, etc., that I would have missed if he hadn’t noticed and pointed it out:tapir, monkeys, bird, ants, and all types of Lora and fauna. I’m a 78 yo man with arthritis, and in our group of six was a 65yo facing knee replacement in June; he was so patient with us, very accommodating on a difficult trek (for me). His conversation in the van on the Journey to was respectful of the sightseeing we were doing on the way but very illuminating about culture, ecosystems, people and pursuits in CR. Just an amazing day.

TripAdvisor Review: Rincon de la Vieja Hiking Tour and Waterfalls
Steven was an EXCELLENT guide, knowledgeable and (for Americans) very easy to understand. We saw Howler, white-faced and spider monkeys, Toucans, Magpie-jays, Red-headed woodpeckers, Manakins, Honeycreepers, lots of parakeets, and a long distance view of a sleeping tapir. ( us tourists thought it was a log!) Steven was able to use binoculars and an iPhone to take a close-up! He did that one several occasions, neat trick! Sorry being a little wordy, but I was truly impressed. Everything we saw was amazing! Just go slow and be patient, and you will see amazing things. And Jose’s driving was EXCELLENTE!
