We met Javier on the beach easily. The trip was one of our favorite activities of our whole trip. The whole crew was very welcoming and made the day so much fun. The food was wonderful (a big meal compared to the "light lunch" described). The ride was beautiful. The snorkeling was fantastic, we felt safe and like the whole trip was well organized. The open bar was a wonderful treat, and even my teenage son really enjoyed the smoothies.
"Absolutely" a "wonderful" review, thank you so much. You made our day. Our trips have about 10 parts and you enjoyed them all and we are so happy that you and your family had such a wonderful experience. I will pass your comments along to Javier and the other crew members. Hopefully you will have time to enjoy some of our other tours, Thank you again, warm regards & Pura Vida.
This was a wonderful experience! The crew on the boat were so kind and accommodating, they were constantly checking in to see if we needed anytbing. The boat was clean and spacious despite all the people on board. The boat docked at a private beach where we were able to swim and snorkel. I would highly recommend this experience!!
Great review, thank you for pointing out how good our crew and boat are. We (and the crew) work hard to have a great experience for our clients and we are happy you were able to enjoy the tour. Please enjoy some of our other tours if you have the time, Thank you & Pura Vida.
Amazing time! Great staff, food, and music. Luis and Manny were fantastic! Pick up and drop off were easy
Thank you Natasha, great review, I will let Luis & Manny know. Our crew works hard to make the trip enjoyable for everyone and I can assure you it's a labor of love. Hopefully you will be able to enjoy some of our other tours. Thank you again and Pura Vida.
A beautiful trip with plenty of time to snorkel or swim. Food was outstanding, unlimited bar with a huge variety of drinks. Staff were friendly and helpful getting I. & out of the water.
Thank you Barbara for your kind review. We try hard to offer a great product and we are really happy that you recognized that and enjoyed it. Hopefully you will be able to experience some of our other adventure tours. Thank you again & Pura Vida
We followed all instructions for meetup and about 30 minutes after the scheduled start of the tour we were informed through Viator that the tour was cancelled. Frustrating to plan our day around this tour and have such a lack of communication and did not even find out until we inquired. Viator did nothing wrong but bummed to not get to experience this as it was too late in the day at that point to schedule a different boat tour.
Thank you for your feedback, and we’re truly sorry for the inconvenience you experienced. Unfortunately, the boat used for this tour had to be closed that day, and regrettably that update was not communicated to you in time. We completely understand how frustrating it is to plan your day around a tour only to learn about the cancellation after arriving at the meeting point. This was not the experience we want for our guests, and we sincerely apologize for the lack of communication. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention so we can continue improving our coordination and ensure updates are shared with guests much sooner in situations like this. We truly hope you were still able to enjoy your time in Costa Rica, and we would love the opportunity to welcome you back for a better experience in the future.
It was a fun experience and we got see jumping mantarays (?) but the snorkelling wasn't too clear and didn't see much. We had some good drinks on board and had a great time overall.
Thank you Madison, You saw Mobula Rays aka devil rays, great experience, they usually travel in schools of 500 or more. Sorry the visibility wasn't better, probably was on the tide change. We are happy you had a "great time overall" Hopefully you will have time to enjoy some more of our adventure tours. Thanks again, best regards & Pura Vida.
Great : the crew, the sunset, hotel transfer, the open bar Good : the food, the ambience (despite numbers), safety considerations Not so good : the snorkelling, the higher than expected number of guests
Hi Peter, Thank you for the review. You rated 4 items "great" & 3 "good" , you rated 2 items "not so good" The snorkeling is usually very good but sometimes it is affected by the weather, tides ¤nts, we are sorry that it was "not so good for you" We do have a limit on the number of guests and we are rarely full but this is peak season so we have more that the usual number of travelers. Our low season is never crowded. Hopefully you will be able to enjoy some of our other tours. Thank you again, we really appreciate your comments and hope you will come back soon. Pura Vida.
Must experience, excellent staff tends to your every need. Fabulous boat, wonderful lunch. Would do it again.
Thank you Glen, you just made our day. Perfect description of what most clients rate as the highlight of their trip. Thank you for taking time to review us. Best regards & Pura Vida.
I had planned to go with a friend but she got sick, so I was solo. I was picked up at my hotel by a lovely driver (Juan) who was very friendly. The boat staff were terrific and we had a good time snorkeling, with a tasty chicken lunch after. The sunset was beautiful and we even saw a whale breach. Highly recommend!
Excellent review, thank you, we are happy you enjoyed our sunset sailing trip and experienced the breathtaking sunset over the Pacific Ocean. Too bad your friend missed the experience and beauty. Juan and the rest of our crew will be happy to see your report. Thank you again, hurry back & Pura Vida.
Great crew! Took the time to make sure our experience was perfect. No rushing. Lots of fun. Plenty to eat and drink.
Thank you Monica for the great review on our sunset sailing cruise. We are happy that you had an enjoyable, relaxing sail with "plenty to eat and drink" . The crew will be delighted to see your comments. Thank you again, we hope you will be able to enjoy some of our other tours. Warm regards & Pura Vida.
