The tour was very nice and for seniors in their 60's it was manageable. Only problem is the 2 hours of traffic to make it to the hotel.

Though it rained while we were at La Paz, Gary still made it a magical and beautiful experience. We were also the lucky group that got a window that opened up at the Poas Volcano so were able to see a portion of the crater. I also really enjoyed hearing about the process that coffee goes through at the farm. Who knew so much went into the process of making coffee?? Thank you to Gary for being a wonderful and knowledgeable guide and to Olman for driving us safely through the mountains and traffic. Wonderful trip! I would highly recommend it:)

Great locations, weather wasn't fully cooperating and we couldn't really see the volcano, but everything else was good.

Great experience, will recommend FOR SURE, Olman is the best tour guide ever, very knowledgeable of everything, very accommodating, making sure we were good and comfortable all the time. We were a group of four friends and he even took lots of pictures of us together. Always want it to go to see a volcano, little sad it was very cloudy and it wasn’t too clear to see , but that was nature decision 🤣🤣🤣🤣. Make sure you include this tour on your San Jose, Costa Rica trip .

Fantastic day seeing a coffee plantation, an active volcano, beautiful waterfall and rescued wild animals. Olman and Gary were our guides and they were very organized and full of knowledge. We stopped for fresh strawberries too. Highly recommend this daytrip from San Jose. *Be sure to bring rain gear just incase. And a mask or buff for the gases at the volcano if the wind is blowing. It’s cooler in the mountains. Wear good walking shoes and be prepared for a lot of steps on the waterfall walk. Bring water bottles. There are chances to buy snacks and souvenirs and good restrooms.

This tour was fabulous from the communication before the tour, throughout the tour to the end. Gary was a thorough tour guide; he explained every detail of the tour along with expectations to ensure all could enjoy a great experience. Even when my daughter got sick on the tour, he and Carlos (the driver) went the extra mile to make certain she was well cared for.
