A day of what you make it - Obi was a fantastic tour guide. We loved all the fun facts and engagement. He was very good at reading our group to keep us moving along in a way that wasn’t rushed. When he ask my friends and I what we were most looking forward to and we said zip lines and seeing wildlife, Obi then made it a mission to stop the car and allow the whole van to see the incredible wildlife as he spotted it from the front window! His knowledge about Costa Rica as a whole plus the area really made the trip for us. Also, zip lining was some of the best I’ve done, the crew was so fun.

Amazing Full-Day Experience - Every minute of this adventurous experience was fantastic! I recommend this full-day trip to anyone who’s looking for a plan. Each stop was enjoyable as I learned much about the history of Costa Rica and was able to experience beautiful views. I appreciate the guidance of Alex Blanco who provided great information, schedule, assistance, politeness, and great service. All of that definitely made this trip worth it!

Super recommended 10 out of 10! - Amazing! Super complete tour, delicious food, all the places to visit beautiful, very comfortable to pass by you to your hotel, because being a tourist it is difficult to move in the schedule that starts the tour, we took the package with zip and abseil and it was a unique experience!! the guides Jorge and Carlos, excellent!! the place of the hot springs beautiful and included towels and locker to store your things, which we found a plus... The zip and rappel guides, attentive and at least at all times, the tour super safe, worth 10 out of 10!!
