Volcanos and more! - Our guide Ron was super knowledgeable of everything in the area and Costa Rica in general! He picked my mom and I up from our hotel and took us on an amazing adventure to see the volcano. We stopped at a coffee farm on the way up and also had a delicious breakfast at a small restaurant on the way. The volcano was very interesting to see and overall the tour was great. If you are in San Jose for a day or two before flying out this is a great tour to get out of the city.

Excellent - Very well planned trip, Charlton our guide was knowledgeable and a pleasure to talk to. He did the best but we could not see the caldera due to the clouds. It will be another time. A great experience overall

Book now! Seriously! This tour and tour operator are GREAT! - ♥️♥️♥️ This tour is incredible and very worth going on! I booked it last minute after having talked to another tourist in Costa Rica that raved about it. I booked both the Poas volcano and La Paz Garden tour on separate days, but unexpectedly was unable to attend the La Paz. The tour operator reached out to me to make sure everything was okay and offered to combine both the Poas and La Paz tour together for me the following day. This worked perfectly and I was able to see everything I wanted even though I couldn't go on my original tour! Due to my limited time in San Jose, I just figured it was my loss, so I really appreciate them being so proactive and letting me know what my options were! The tour guides are very well read and educated and teach a lot about the political, economic and general infrastructure of Costa Rica, and are able to explain the Poas stratovolcano and how it was formed. I cannot recommend this tour and this specific tour operator enough!!!

Poas volcano - definitely worth a visit - I really loved this trip! Edgar was a wonderful guide and driver, sharing lots of information about the country and volcanoes. On the way there we made two short stops: one at a coffee farm, where he told us a little about Costa Rican coffee and the other one at a local restaurant for some delicious breakfast. The Volcano itself was very impressive, as it had just broken out a few days before the gases were quite intense and we were only allowed to stay for 20minutes. For me totally worth it to see an active volcano. For a half day trip the price is definitely to high though compared with other full day tours.

Good trip. Worth a visit. - Good trip. Interesting to see the active and extinct volcanoes. The hike up to the extinct volcano is about 900m vertical We were fine but less fit people were having problems. And it’s already 5700 foot altitude. Should have that info as part of the tour.

I would suggest to increase more time on Poás and remove the frills and this could be a great tour. - We had very little time on the volcano. The tour takes a lot of time on other stuff like coffee plantation and lunch on the way. We were doing this tour so that we can spend more time on Poás volcano but that was not the case. The tour guide was excellent and tried all he could in terms of making our tour memorable and full marks to that.

a disaster I don't recommend them - The tour started without finding out the state of the park, knowing that the volcano was active, I couldn't do the excursion and they only gave me half of the money back, they didn't show their face or apologize, just excuses, I don't recommend them.
