Traveler Reviews

I highly recommend this tour.We were lucky enough to be alone on that day so it was only us and the tour guide Mauricio who was excellent, very knowledgeable and kind.The river safari is nice and pleasant and we did spot a lot of animals in their habitat.During the afternoon the La Paz Waterfall gardens is absolutely gorgeous and a must when in Costa Rica to discover it’s beautiful nature and wildlife.

If you don't have a rent-a-car, this tour is the best option. And the guide Oscar Sandoval was the best too.

This is a must do in Costa Rica! Our day started on a river cruise in which we saw: sloths, monkeys, birds, crocodiles and otters. Then we went to La Paz Waterfall and Gardens, in which our tour guide, Orturo, lead us through a different way to beat the crowds. Lunch was amazing and the animals at the sanctuary were cool! Our driver and tour guide were amazing and extremely informative! They truly made us feel like family! Pura Vida!
