Excellent Jungle Boat Tour

Katherine_M, Jan 2023

A very experienced tour guide who spoke English very well and worked very hard at locating the wildlife we were all there to experience and sharing his knowledge with us. Every part of this day went very smoothly from pick up at my home, to the jungle boat tour, to the location where we ate a wonderful Costa Rican lunch and had a wonderful demonstration of pottery making, and then back home again. Very good, reliable tour all around and I highly recommend for a relaxing day in remote areas of Costa Rica.

Not Enough Pottery

KAYLA_R, Jan 2022

The boat ride was a great time and the guide was fantastic, but we were extremely disappointed with the pottery tour. It was very rushed! It was less than 15 minutes! The rest of the tour group had not signed up for pottery so they either half participated or impatiently waited until the gentleman was done so that they could continue on with their own tour since we were all taking the same ride. If you are hoping for more of a pottery and cultural tour this is not it.

Incomplete and disappointing.

Morris_B, Jan 2022

A major part of the advertised tour (the Guaitil Pottery) was not provided at all. It was entirely skipped. And what was to be a fully private tour was not. The guide provided minimal information. It was the only bad tour of four tours that we had in Costa Rica.

Enjoyable tour

Joann_H, July 2021

My guide Julian and driver Leonard were fantastic, took the time to point out things befire we got to the river tour. River tour was excellent, crocodiles monkeys, bats. The variety of life was impressive. River boat captain was very good at locating and pointing items out
