AMAZING EXCURSION! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! - My husband, 17 year old daughter and I recently did the Miravalles excursion, and can’t say enough good things about the tour and our tour guides! Alex and Dancho picked us up bright and early at the JW Marriott, and we began our drive to the waterfalls. The entire drive, Alex entertained us with his vast knowledge of the trees and wildlife. We even stopped several times roadside to taste Tamarind, cashew fruit, and see the guanacaste tree “ears”. The waterfall was gorgeous and we were encouraged to stay and relax as long as we wanted. We then went to the mud baths and hot springs, which were the highlight of the trip. We began in the natural volcano sauna, then slathered ourselves with healing mud, showered, then finished by plunging in 3 pools sequentially - hot, medium temp, then a cold plunge. After this luxurious natural spa day, we had the most delicious, authentic Costa Rican lunch in the nearby restaurant, before heading back to the hotel. Overall an AMAZING experience and we would recommend it to anyone visiting CR!!

Wonderful day with Christian and Alex! - Christian and Alex were great! Picked us up right on time in a brand new van at our resort. It was just my husband and I on the tour which was great. We stopped for a delicious Costa Rican breakfast in Liberia before heading heading to the Llanos del Cortes waterfall for a short hike and refreshing swim. Alex pointed out some interesting lizards there. Then we headed towards the Miravalles volcano. After some photos we went to the quaint Hornillas hot springs for a lovely steam, mud bath and soak. We had the place all to ourselves then a delicious lunch after. Alex gave us lots of info about Costa Rica and Guanacaste as well as pointed out several unique trees and birds, info about the geo thermal area and loads of other interesting details. It was a perfect low key day and Christian and Alex were awesome - we had lots of laughs along the way. Definitely recommend!!!

Costa Rica Vacation - Exceptional customer service. Christian coordinated the trip for us. Juan Carlos was a tour guide with a vast knowledge about the area. He also accommodated the tour to meet the needs of my daughter who suffers from depression and anxiety. Highly recommend Costa Rica Adventure Travels.

Amazing experience with Best tour company, Costa Rica Adventures Companies - We just returned from our Miravalles-hiking/waterfall excursion that we booked through Costa Rica Adventures Travels and cannot begin to express our gratitude to the entire team, particularly our guide, Johnny. The professionalism, thoughtfulness, knowledge and attentiveness exceeded our expectations. From the moment we booked our tour we were confident we had made the right decision. The representative reviewed every detail of the tour with us, she emailed my confirmation and stayed on the phone to ensure that I was comfortable with my booking and answered all of my questions. Johnny our driver arrived promptly, confirmed we had everything needed for the day and thoroughly explained each stop and what we may expect throughout the day. Somehow we managed to arrive at each location prior to the crowds and was able to enjoy every minute undisturbed! Throughout the entire day we felt safe and were so impressed with Johnny’s punctuality, reliability and warmth that we recommended his company to other travelers we met in Costa Rica. Our day ended with an amazing Costa Rican meal! If you are visiting Costa Rica and planning an excursion, please consider these guys you will not regret it. I highly recommend them!

Amazing Trip - Great trip! Christian and Juan Carlos were both very knowledgeable and passionate guides excited to share everything they knew about Costa Rica. They were the best tour guides we used during our week in Costa Rica. All facilities were in great condition, and lunch was amazing. I highly recommend this excursion to anybody. The hiking portions were short and easy, and the views are incredible.

Unique experience! - Alex was such a great tour guide! He was so knowledgeable and passionate about what he does and is also a great photographer. Our driver was great too, they were both very friendly and personable. They took us to a local grocery store to use the restroom and grab a cup of coffee. I was able to purchase some local coffee to take home that was much less expensive than the tourist shops. The volcano mud bath is a very unique experience and the hot springs after are very relaxing.
