Definitely do half day PC tour. Way fun and educational. - Bring a hat for the sun. My driver Albin was great and had iced bottles of water for us to drink. He showed up early and we picked up the others. Had a wonderful time going to a market, church, cacao/coffee farm, the beach ⛱️ and ate lunch. Great day experience. Albin made everything safe, fun and informative. Highly recommended!

A True Cultural Immersion - Robinson and Danillo were spectacular! Their energy made the excursion. Danillo was thoughtful, thorough, and organized while Robinson was hilarious! The excursion was a true cultural immersion and true to the description, in fact we did way more than we anticipated and have fantastic photo/video evidence courtesy of Robinson.
