Amazing Views - Our guide spoke excellent English and was super knowledgeable. He gave us lots of history and information about CostaRica and the Irazú volcano. The included lunch was very tasteful and it was by far the best Casado and strawberry milkshake I have had.

Despite the size and international composition of the group, guide Raquel managed everything very competently and presented a lot of background information clearly. However, a little more time to visit the different points would be good. Unfortunately, contrary to the program, the visit to the Basilica of the Virgen de los angeles in Cartago was not included. I therefore visited it on my own and then took the public bus back to San José. Apart from that, it was a very nice tour.
