The whole family enjoyed the tour. Carlos was awesome. We loved the Rainmaker hiking trail. The waterfall was beautiful and very refreshing. The lunch was phenomenal.
We had Carlos take us out on our tour. We had a little hiccup with a flat tire, but as he fixed the flat tire it turned into a very engaging and informative conversation about the Palm oil farms and industry. Our kids had a blast, and my wife who was unsure of doing an atv tour lived splashing through rivers and puddles of mud. Kids had a blast too, great day and great guide!
Must do in Manuel Antonio! We have never ridden before and had a blast and saw amazing scenery through the rainforest. The lunch and guides were amazing !
This was our third excursion of our trip. We got on an air-conditioned bus that took us to a small agricultural area. There was a coconut oil operation. We drove through the dirt and gravel roads through the small community where we saw people’s homes and even a school. We thought this might be a little bit more in the jungle, but really don’t have any complaints. There were around 20 people on our ride and we went single file through the entire trip. We rode to a national park for a snack of Pineapples and crackers- amazing - and walked to a pretty waterfall that we were able to see but quickly had to get back onto the ATVs as there was a second tour behind us. We finished up the day with a Costa Rican lunch that was delicious and we’re dropped back off by the bus. We didn’t see a lot of wildlife if that’s what this trip is for you. Mostly the town’s dogs and some cows.
Diego was the best! This was a super fun activity and I would highly recommend it. He took us through rivers and puddles and the waterfall and surrounding swimming area was beautiful.
A wonderful family adventure with fantastic guides, a beautiful waterfall and delicious food to complete a fun afternoon!
This tour is on "Costa Rican" time, meaning it says that it is 4 hrs, but ours was easily 6. It is definitely worth it though. We had a lot of ATV time and a very good lunch. The waterfall was very small, and more comparable to a running river but nonetheless, it was still enjoyable. They took a lot of pictures and really cared for our safety. Highly recommended tour!
Fun experience! Enjoyed the atvs, swimming in the waterfall and the food was good too! The staff were great and very helpful.
This was a great experience from start to finish. We got to see all kinds of amazing sights and views, and the ATV riding itself was an absolute blast. Driving through the rivers, jungle trails, villages, and different terrain made the entire tour feel like a real adventure. The staff was very professional, friendly, and made the experience both fun and safe. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone looking for an exciting way to explore the area.
I would recommend to anyone. My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time. We were offered fresh fruits and a delightful lunch at the end. Can’t wait to come back! Thank you! 😊
