Top Tamarindo Half-day Tours

"Everything. The whole experience was wonderful. The guides were very passionate and knowledgeable. Ivan was fantastic"

"The sunset is beautiful. The staff is friendly. The boat vibe is casual and relaxing, but not that loud."

"The employees took excellent care of us!! Food was great ( costa rican), loved the open bar! We were lucky and had wonderfully warm water for snorkeling and a stunning sunset. The staff kept the boat bathroom impecable.."

"Yummy snacks, food and drinks! We got pineapple and chips and salsa before we made it to the beach to swim for a hour. Then we had a delicious chicken, rice and veggies buffet-style meal. Beautiful sunset!"

"Knowledge of the guide. Wildlife such as monkeys, birds, crocs etc.. Butterflies and unusual bats. Went after for a snack at a farm."

"Losing my phone in the sea The crew did everything they could to retrieve it and even over the next couple trips they snorkelled looking for my phone Great team relaxing and some good music to finish off the trip"

"Good rice and beans, good drinks, great music, we got to see dolphins, crew was great and for sure recommend"

"The zipline was awesome!! 9 different lines througha beautiful canyon. The horse ride was hot and dusty, but fun and then cooling off in the river on the tubes was everyone's absolute favorite activity of the whole trip. Lunch buffet was amazing!"

"This was pretty cool. I love four-wheeling. We stopped by a few beaches & got to enjoy the water a little bit. The only thing I think could've made this better is if we were able to take the atvs closer to the beach."

"Decided to go on a solo trip to Costa Rica and thought it be great to add another stamp to my passport. I enjoyed touring Nicaragua and met some really cool people. You’ll spend a good portion of your time heading to Nicaragua, but it’s worth it in the end."

"We had an amazing time & had a wonderful instructor! A bucket list item checked off :) beautiful weather and the perfect sized waves - not too big for beginners but big enough to have a blast"

"William met us at the airport in Liberia and efficiently drove us to Tamarindo where he helped us find our VRBO and transferred our luggage from one end of the parking lot to the other as we searched. Thank you William."

"Easy pickup, friendly driver, and a few sights on the way! Much cheaper than booking through our hotel!"

"Fun tour of the area including city, mountains and beach. Saw howling and white faced monkeys along the way. Stopped at a local soda for lunch and the food was outstanding. Fun activity."

"Fabulous experience. Juan Carlos (Carlos) was a knowledgeable, friendly guide and between him and Manuelo, the excellent and eagle-eyed boat captain, we saw the beautiful wildlife the trip promised, including capuchin monkeys, crocodiles and a plethora of birds. A great experience that enriched our Costa Rican vacation."

"Luis may seem a bit rough around the edges at first but he is knowledgeable and truly cares about the estuary. We are booking another tour with him later this week (turtle watching)."

"The crew was amazing!! Very nice and made sure everyone was having a great time. Definitely will do it again."

"We were so happy with this tour! We had so much fun at Tio Leo's coffee plantation and didn't expect to get and experience all that was included in this tour. Not only did we learn about how the coffee beans are grown, but we also learned about different types of beans and coffees. Also included in this tour was empanada making, juice tasting, coffee tasting, chocolate making and tasting, a short spa treatment to exfoliate our arms, and a plantain snack. We had so much fun and learned so much. And we even got to meet Tio Leo himself! He autographed our bags of coffee and mugs that we purchased! As far as the waterfall, we actually decided to replace this portion of the tour with an authentic Costa Rican lunch after the coffee tour because we had actually visited the waterfall a few days prior, not realizing we booked it twice. The tour company was more than accommodating to grant our request. They took us to a local restaurant that served us a delicious meal that we all enjoyed. Such a fun day. We would highly recommend!!"

"Patsy and Ian are amazing people and incredibly knowledgeable, we lived talking with them and they were willing to give us any recommendations for our stay. We cant recommend this tour enough. It is incredibly worth the price. We loved seeing the different styles of brewery and all of the beers tasted amazing. If you are at all on the fence, book this tour you will not regret it!!"

"Smaller boat with a great crew of two. Very attentive, professional and they made it fun too. Traditional Costa Rican food with fresh fruit. An open bar with just about anything desired."

"It was a great experience, our guide was so friendly, we hit up two beaches and everyone loved it. I’d highly recommend!"

"Everything about this was amazing! The people the experience the food. Great for all ages. Very worth while and enjoyable."

"It was great, I definitely recommend for your first time in Tamarindo. Beautiful beaches and beautiful countryside"

"We loved the captain and crew. We had such a fun time! Thank you for a great Costa Rican Catamaran experience!! Highly recommend."
