Poas, Doka, Grecia, & Sarchi with Roger! - All 3 tours we took were very good. But we think this was the best. Because the tour guide/driver, was Roger. Some tour guides just make it much better. This was a lot of territory to cover, and it did not disappoint. Got up to Poaz early, as we did, and you have a chance to see the volcano without the clouds/mist. Gorgeous. Doka coffee plantation was very interesting, came away with a much better knowledge of the production process, and appreciated the education. Another great lunch before we headed to Grecia, Sarchi. Seeing those 2 towns was really special, the Metal Red Church in Grecia, and the Ox Cart Factory in Sarchi. Wouldn't mind going back and spending time in those places. Just some final thoughts about the tours and company: Tour pickups were always on time! But it can still be a long day. Traffic in and around SJO has a lot to do with length of day. Shoot for a weekday, our last tour had only 4 people. Take a water bottle. Rain coat may be needed. Comfy shoes.

Volcano crater can be... - Volcano crater can be obscured by fog but our guide recommended waiting and after waiting a fee minutes the fog cleared and the crater was visible. Worth the wait.

Great tour and guide! - Me and my family had a great time. Jesus was a great tour guide. We did not get to see the crater due to the clouds but it was still a great experience. Highly recommend.

Highly Recommend - Loved the tour! My original tour got cancelled last minute and was moved to this one, wasn’t sure what I signed up for but it was exceptional. Jairo was an amazing tour guide! Learned a lot and truly a wonderful experience. Friendly note, if you get car sick be sure to bring something to help.

Great Tour - fairly new tour pkg option for this company and loved it - I was initially worried because there were only a few reviews but it was the only tour that included Grecia and Sarchi which had a couple of things I wanted to see. I am so glad I did it! Eric our guide was so great and really knowledgeable. The best all week. Juan Carlos was our driver and really friendly and a great driver.

Great day tour - The guide Eric, and the driver ( I can’t remember his name) were so great, there was tons of information given out about Costa Rica on the drive up to the volcano- I was the only one on the tour that day that needed English and Eric made sure I was included and didn’t miss out on anything. I would tour with the company again but specifically Eric if possible

Good tour- - The day before the tour we were contacted that we could either keep sane rate and do half tour or pay extra for a different tour (due to not enough on the tour) felt a bit bait and switch - we paid the extra (cash) and all in all really enjoyed the experience
