This tour was the best tour I’ve ever been on. So much fun! Our tour guide Fernando was excellent. He kept it fun. And at the ziplining, all the staff made it very enjoyable. I would highly recommend this tour!

You will not be bored!

Olivia_W, Apr 2024

Amazing trip! Harlem our guide and Will our driver were great as well! Very good pace and you will not be bored. Didn’t have time for breakfast and we stopped to try some tortillas which held us over for lunch. Zip lining was so fun and the hot springs had a bar! Would definitely book a trip with Harlem again 👍🏻

Not worth it

Devin_V, Apr 2024

Did not see any waterfalls or the volcano. Went to a hot swimming pool that was labeled as hot springs. What a joke. Highlight was the ziplining

Good services and very...

Chuni_P, Dec 2023

Good services and very comfortable journey. We will do it again. This our second time we did Hawaii with you

Awesome experience!

Shondelle_S, Aug 2023

This tour is a LONG day but very much worth it! Harlem was our tour guide and he was so kind and accommodating and shared so much knowledge about Costa Rica! This was a perfect tour, would make no improvements.

Must Go!!! Highly recommended and safe

Lissette_A, Apr 2023

Our tour guide Kenneth was amazing and so helpful and knowledgeable about the history of Costa Rica. Everyone was so pleasant and the Go Adventure team was incredible and made my first zip line experience memorable! I would definitely do this tour again. Although it was an all day tour, it almost didn’t feel like it with all the stops at each attraction. Looking forward to coming back

Good stops, poor leadership

Helen_L, Mar 2023

The hot springs visit was great. The zip line tour was thrilling. The rest of the trip was meh. The weather was cloudy so we could not see the volcano. The weather is not the tour guide's responsibility, but the tour guide did not communicate well. He knew English, but did not tell the group when things were happening, when to be at the bus (which turned out to be a different time than what was on the viatour website), did not provide any background on the waterfall or coffee plantation we stopped at. He did not really engage with us much at all.

A great tour!

Ying_X, Dec 2022

We had a good time on this tour. Our tour guide Harlem has great knowledge on Costa Rica and made sure we were taken care of. We saw sloths. Hummingbirds and toucans, and leaned coffee plants. The highlight of the tour is the canopy zip lining, an unforgettable experience!

Best Experience! Highly Recommend!

Omar_S, Oct 2022

We enjoyed the food, the good laughs, the detailed information on each place we stopped at, and most importantly, the ziplining and hot springs! Thank you to the amazing tour guide and every staff member along the way that took great care of us.

Ciera_J, Jun 2022

Made it there and back safely. Food was amazing, nicely seasoned. Juices were awesome of course (everything's natural). Staff at each spot were super Friendly. Our guide made sure we saw sloths on our way to destinations. Guide was informative. We were picked up good timing. Activities were A LOT of fun. Left out around 550 a and returned around 9p. Adventure packed day ,well worth it!!

Bsst trip ever!

Pure Vida!

Lauren_C, May 2022

Fernando was a great tour guide. You can tell he loves his job and his country. We had a great group and got to learn a lot and get a good flavor of Costa Rica and had fun zip lining. People everywhere we’re great. Food was good too. Thanks Fernando for a great experience we will cherish forever! Pure Vida!

Beautiful

Rebecca_M, Apr 2022

Our guide Fernando was really nice and super informative! It is a long ride and a long day, packed with many beautiful sightings! The hot springs were the icing on top! Would totally recommend this tour!

Tour guide Oscor was...

Kevin_A, Dec 2021

Tour guide Oscor was great. Zipline and hot springs were great. Waterfalls were disappointing. Coffee plantation was ok

Amazing experience.

Carolyn_A, Nov 2021

This tour had everything you could want. We went north into the mountains and the north is so Different from the big tourist destinations. What a beautiful Country experience. We loved the zip lining and the Hot springs. Zip lining was awesome. We felt very safe and it was thrilling. 10 different runs. The hot springs was a wonderful way to end of our adventure. So relaxing. We also saw a coffee plantation and tasted Costa Rica coffee. I must say this is probably the best coffee I have ever had. We loved this adventure and would recommend it to everyone.

Too many hours driving!

Leah_H, Sep 2021

This was a great experience and although I knew it was aprox 14/15 hour trip, I didn’t realize that the majority is spent inside a vehicle or I would not have made this choice! Yes, you make several stops along the way but they are all quick stops. When you arrive at the zip lining/hot springs you have aprox 3 1/2 hours before you are back in the vehicle again! So please beware, you will be spending most of the 14/15 hours in a vehicle! I would estimate that 5 1/2 hours outdoors and 9 - 10 hours in a van! Some people are hot and some are cold so not everyone is a happy camper on how the ac is being adjusted! Kenneth was our guide and a great one at that! Very professional, kind and informative! My opinion is that what we did and seen was not worth the time spent driving!

Amazing Experience!

Chelsea_B, Sep 2021

Such an amazing excursion! Fernando Moss was our guide and you can tell her loves his job & his country. He went above & beyond, we learned a lot about Costa Rica and all of our experiences. He also made stops not listed on the excursion to show us waterfalls, enjoy some local snacks, and more. Highly recommend this tour and Fernando!

Juan is an Awesome Tour Guide

Craig_W, Sep 2021

Juan was an awesome tour guide. He showed us the culture of Costa Rica and made us feel at home. We felt like locals after the tour!!!!
