Costa Rica 2025 Holiday Trip - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Family Experience with Jerry at Tukan Tours Our family traveled in December 2025 and had the absolute pleasure of working with Jerry from Tukan Tours. From start to finish, the experience exceeded our expectations. Jerry was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and thoughtful in planning our excursions. He took the time to understand that we were traveling as a family and tailored everything to balance adventure, comfort, and fun for all ages. The logistics were seamless—on-time pickups, excellent guides, and well-planned itineraries that made the trip feel effortless. What truly set Jerry apart was his genuine care and attention to detail. He was always available to answer questions, make adjustments, and ensure everything ran smoothly. It felt less like booking a tour company and more like having a trusted local expert looking out for us. This was one of the most memorable family vacations we’ve ever had, and Jerry played a major role in that. We would not hesitate to book with Tukan Tours again and highly recommend Jerry to anyone looking for a first-class, stress-free travel experience. Thank you, Jerry, for an unforgettable trip! Jerry is now our friend and part of our family forever!! Pura Vida!!!!

Exceptional Experience with Jerry at Tukan Tours - Jerry was absolutely incredible. From the moment we arrived, he felt less like a tour guide and more like a personal concierge and friend. He went above and beyond every single day—helping us with food shopping, giving local recommendations, and making sure every excursion was top-notch and perfectly tailored to our family. Every detail was thought through, every experience was seamless, and his knowledge of Costa Rica made our first visit unforgettable. Jerry’s passion, professionalism, and genuine care truly set him apart. Because of him, our trip was stress-free, exciting, and better than we ever could have imagined. If you are visiting Costa Rica, do yourself a favor and book with Tukan Tours—and ask for Jerry. He made our first trip to Costa Rica the absolute best we could have asked for, and we will absolutely be back because of him.

Best tour of Manuel Antonio - Our family took a tour from San Jose to Manuel Antonio National Park. We were very fortunate to have Jerry as our tour guide. Jerry was extremely thoughtful to our needs and knowledgeable about Costa Rica wildlife and culture. For example, on our drive back to San Jose —despite the traffic— he was kind enough to pull over just so we could see a sloth! The entire tour was top notch from ease of pick up/drop off to the food to the beautiful park itself. Highly recommend!!

Amazing guide and tour to Manual Antonio! - Had a great time and tour with Jerry. He picked us up from our hotel in San Jose and took us to Manual Antonio for the day. Jerry was very knowledgeable and a fun companion for the day. On the drive there he even pulled over as he spotted two scarlet macaws in a nearby tree - amazing! Manual Antonio park itself was beautiful and we got to see lots of wildlife, mostly pointed out by Jerry.

Pura Vida with Jerry!! - I cannot say enough good things about our trip to Manuel Antonio and Tortuguero the next day with Jerry!! He is a passionate, knowledgeable, and fantastic tour guide. We loved getting to spend two days with him exploring both coasts of Costa Rica! We always felt safe on the tour, were given clear instructions on meeting times, and memorable moments throughout the day. Jerry’s love for his country is so obvious and you cannot help but shout Pura Vida all day long. If you are in Costa Rica, you need to book a tour with Jerry!

Not notified of cancellation!!!! - We booked a tour, received confirmation and had a scheduled pick up time. We were waiting for our pick up and no one showed, so we called and that’s when we found out the park we were trying to go was sold out. They did not notify us until then. They could have canceled, sent us an email, called, texted, anything. Instead we were standing outside just waiting. When I called they did apologize and stated we would get a full refund. I do not see the refund yet after a few days and will now have to call about that. Very disappointing experience. If there were no tickets they should not have booked the tour or cancelled and notified us!! Terrible customer service.
