Things to do in  Jaco

A big adventure park about 10-15 minutes from Jaco beach. Staff was accommodating even after a big storm. The adventure park was challenging and so much fun! The waterfall was refreshing and such a good time

My friends and I were able to get this as a private tour, just the 3 of us. That was awesome. We rode the ATVs all over, down to a waterfall, onto a part of the beach that was secluded. It was one of the best times of the whole trip. Definitely recommend this excursion for anyone thinking about ATVing in Jaco Beach.

Randall was great he was very informative about Costa Rica and treated the drive like a tour instead of just a drive. We even stopped to see a popular spot for crocodiles on the way to Jaco. Overall a great experience !! Would totally recommend.

Marco was an excellent tour guide. Jaco Falls was pretty cool. So much to see and we even saw Monkeys.

The ATV ride was long on the paved roads, but going up and down the mountain was great. The Jaco waterfall was amazing.

We were staying in Esterillos so we selected this tour starting in Jaco. That made for a long day and a lot of driving for our guide, Juan. Juan was excellent! He gave us information and tips about everything we passed. He stopped when we needed to and took care of us completely at all the tour stops. The highways in CR can be maddening and we were so grateful to have Juan rather than making that trek on our own. The waterfall was amazing. The volcano was awe inspiring. And, our time at the hot springs was a great way to end the tour before heading home.

This excursion was so much fun. We had super guides with exceptional driving skills! They were kind and very informative and we enjoyed their knowledge of Costa Rica. The views were stunning and the highlight was swimming under the falls in the cool pool. The lunch was amazing and delicious! A great place to stop and enjoy the view while eating authentic local food. This is a four hour tour and worked well for seniors like us. We got to see more of the country. They took good care of us! Just a TIP if you’re getting picked up in Jaco. The instructions say to meet at the Al Frente Subway restaurant on Pastor Diaz. Adventure Tours is actually across the street from Subway behind the gym. They need to change their instructions on the website to avoid confusion. Have fun…we did!

Tucanes Tours has customer treatment down. Pedro picked us up at our door in a spacious, comfortable, luxury van and brought us 90 minutes south from Jaco Beach to a wonderful little cafe where we enjoyed a balanced, light breakfast. On the way to the drop in spot our guide, Marco, pointed out the diversity of Costa Rica's plants, economy, and common aspects of life in CR. I really enjoyed this aspect of the trip. The water and rafting experience were idyllic (mid-February)--we especially liked the interactions with the other rafters and guides of other boats (Nicholas). Our rafting was interrupted for a short period where we ventured off to take in an impressive water fall then we finished up with fresh fruit and liquids. A short trip back for lunch and then doorstop service from Pedro. This was the highlight of our trip--pre-teen and teenage kids loved it!

This was awesome! Randall was waiting for me at the airport w/ my name on a sign and we were off immediately. His car was cool and smelled nice. Randall himself was such a nice dude, spoke perfect English, and we had a great conversation for the entire car ride. Made the trip from San Jose to Jaco in an hour and a half which was great time.

The ATV tour is one of the best activities to do in Jaco. Seeing the waterfall and riding up the mountain was unforgettable and the views are surreal.

The hosts were very very knowledgeable and informative.. The trex up to see the 10 waterfalls is way more than a hike. You have to climb ropes and rocks and it is awesome for those who have the stamina my 10 and 11 year old boys loved it . The lunch was amazing I highly recommend highlights highlights of my stay in jaco

Amazing waterfalls and the best zip line that myself and everyone has ever been on! I recommend this course over any other! It's worth the drive from Jaco, Daniel , Jose and the rest of the crew were phenomenal Pura Vida!

The waterfall tour was amazing- we had so much fun! This tour was the highlight of our Costa Rica trip, and we would highly recommend it to other travelers/explorers. Our tour guide was professional and knowledgeable, making the trip safe, fun, and educational. Would definitely choose this tour company again, if ever in the Jaco area.

This is a hike you don’t want to miss if you’re in Jaco and have time. Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about the flora and fauna, the trails, and the culture of Costa Rica. He was extremely attentive and careful to help keep everyone safe. There are rigorous aspects of this excursion. The first five falls are relatively easy-moderate. The last five require a little upper body strength and dexterity. I suggest wearing a bathing suit with quick dry shorts and shirt that you can remove, carry a lightweight dry bag backpack, hat, bug spray, sunscreen, comfortable shoes that can get wet (loved having closed toed Keens. The guides wore lightweight sneakers. Some folks wore and did fine with tevas and chacos). The hike is very close to town - not a long bus ride, which is great. The lunch afterwards is FANTASTIC!! This is a beautiful and exhilarating adventure. Enjoy!

ATVs are fun. View of Jaco from the top is nice. The restaurant view is nice too. The waterfall was short which was disappointing. Too bad one drink is not included at the restaurant.

The zip line was amazing! All 10 lines and different speeds on each one. We even got to ride upside down on one. Loved Wilson and the guides. The best experience was the ATV ride and waterfalls with Israel!. He was super fun, super encouraging, we drove like bats out of hell on straightaways and went to mountain tops. The river drive to the waterfall was beautiful. He took some of the best photos of us on our trip so far. Both of these tours are a must do if you come to Herradura and Jaco.

If you do one thing in Jaco, do this tour! The experience is so exciting and well planned. Our tour guide was amazing and so knowledgeable about the local plants and each of the activities. You get a good amount of time to do each activity and hotel pickup is very convenient. The lunch provided was delicious and the view is great. This is a must do.

I was very pleased with this 1/2 day ATV Tour with Adventure Tours Costa Rica. Our group of five arrived at their facility at 8am and were warmly greeted by the bi-lingual receptionist and two bi-lingual tour guides. We quickly checked in, signed waivers, and were given a quick overview of our tour plans. Once we were ready to go the guides showed us to five nice new ATV's and helmets they already had ready to go for us. After a quick safety briefing we were off to a nice trip through town and then up through the rainforest/rural area around Jaco. After stopping by a few waterfalls and other beautiful scenic spots for some pictures we stopped for a break and had a delicious lunch at a Tilapia farm. Very nice people, great food chicken/steak/pork chop plus extras and a great, quiet atmosphere there! Once lunch was finished we headed back to Jaco the way we came. I recommend this trip, it was alot of fun and a great way to see the Costa Rica scenery. My only compliant was that they wanted a deposit of 1000 for 1-4 ATV's and then another 1000 for any additional 1-4 ATV's. Since we had a group of five I had to put a 2000 deposit down for the five ATV's. We did not have any damage on our ATV's so the entire 2000 was refunded when we returned to the facility at the end of the day and it has already posted to my account so I am fine but I wish this was better explained up front so it was not a surprise the day of. On another note, I used this same outfit to book a private surfing lesson later in our trip and was very pleased with that excursion as well. I recommend using Adventure Tours Costa Rica for scheduling your fun plans in the Jaco area. I will use them again if I make it back to the Jaco area in the future.

OMG!!! Seven and a half hours of pure fun and adventure!! If you are staying around Jaco, we were in Quepos, and want a thrilling adventure, use Adventure Tours in downtown Jaco. Carmen and Mark were amazing guides taking us through the river several times, up and down the mountain, and sitting in the waterfalls!! All skill levels can enjoy this tour. We stopped three times, once for lunch and the other times at two local bars for your favorite beverage. It was very easy to book online and the staff at the front desk were exceptionally friendly. All four of us would highly recommend this tour company!!

Beautiful ATV Tour! We went though the jungle and made two spots at the waterfall, Jaco town and then a bar up in the mountain. We saw some monkeys, birds and ducks! We were a small tour group which was great. They went over the safety protocols and guided just through the whole process throughout the tour. Would totally recommend this activity with this awesome team!
