Fun 2h ride! - This tour was great. Andres was very friendly and careful. My children enjoyed ATVing, it was somewhat muddy, but not too terrible. I wish it would have been a little faster, but we were a big group and understandably Andres had to wait for all of them. One of my daughter’s ATV did not work correctly, she got scared because she was going down too fast. Luckily, she was able to move out of the way, did not get hurt and Andres switch the ATV immediately for her.

Awesome ATV tour - An absolute must do! The trails traversed through the jungle and countryside with spectacular views of the volcano. The ride was easy enough for a novice to ATV’s but also exciting for someone who is more experienced. We lucked out as it was just me and my 17 yr old so we got a private tour. The guide was amazing and took the time to stop for pictures and pointed out wildlife along the way. Expect to get wet and muddy, but that was kind of the fun part. We were picked up from our hotel promptly and dropped back afterwards.

Very fun, nice guide, and the mud puddles were awesome! - Andres was our guide. Since we were doing this tour during the rainy season the mud puddles were ginormous and a blast to speed through! The tour was good, and I loved the volcanic ash mud mask (spa day with ATV ride - heck yeah!). I wish we would have been able to see some wild life but we really didn't stop much. The only thing I wish is that they had a photographer that would take pictures while we went through the puddles that we could buy at the end. These experiences are for my son and I to make memories and we love the pictures to remind us how awesome it was!
