★★★★
“We recently did the salto el limon waterfall day out. I have mixed feelings about this. It was a full day out with a very early pick up and we didnt get back till pm, so if you're taking little kids be aware! We got collected on a small coach initially, but transferred to a large one that was very full and stuffy.…”
★★★★★
“It was a wonderful experience and Modesto was speaking all the languages very fluently!”
★★★★★
“We booked the double excursion to Sanoa Island and ATV/Buggy tour for two families. The staff and locals at both location were extremely professional and really welcoming. Communication from start to finish was amazing so you knew when/where/who without being confused. The excursion was well organized and worth it.…”
