This was a scam. A guy reached out and wanted more money to do the tour. It’s a scam!!!!! I spoke to the real business owner and he had no record of me
Actually i reach you to let you know we don't have the enough group to operate the tour because You are only 2 persons and to operate the tour at least 4 people. I give the option to pay an extra money to operate prívate excursion but you answer You go to trío advisor and let a Bad review to my company. client are not agree with that extra charge i gave you money refund. We are a company and we have the own polities but people don't understood that. So sorry about it.
I really enjoyed the tour and Wilmar is an excellent guide. He is friendly, professional, knowledgable and a great driver! The two main individual tours were interesting and informative and well worth the time to get there. The rainforest nature walk portion is at the Spring Paradise Bijagua. The local guide was excellent. The coffee and chocolate portion of the tour conveniently happens at the same location, which is a very beautiful and picturesque spot (Cafe & Cacao Tour Bijagua). Also, a very good local guide here. This combination tour is a great way to have some classic Costa Rican experiences in one day and see different climate zones along the way. I was back at the hotel in time for an afternoon at the beach and to watch the sunset.
Hello! Dear client Paul Thanks a lot for your great comments. My pleasure to assist you in this great experience. Hope so on the near future share another great tour activity trough our team. At your service Best regards Wilmar Retana Naturalist guide Certified (ID #1156)
We had an excellent experience with this tour operator. We used them for airport transfer (pickup and drop off), Monteverde Cloud Forest, and Jungle Tour with coffee/chocolate tour. Wilmer was a consummate professional and really enhanced our first visit to CR. He made unscheduled stops for us to experience local CR fare and do some souvenir shopping. His communication was great and he kept us informed of any delays due to traffic. If you’re looking for an experienced tour guide with fair prices for tours/experiences, I highly recommend Guanacaste Adventures! Pura Vida
Hello! Mohun Thanks a lot for your comments. Great to hear you enjoy the tour . My pleasure to assist you. At your service
Vendor lied about travel time to/from activity site! Time was excessive with holiday traffic! Can’t trust the Viator website!
Hello ! Mark Hope si you are doing fine. Traffic time is normal when are holidays. I can't change it that but either you enjoy the tour but i don't understand the bad Review.
Went with family aged 11-74. It was such a great experience. The team at the coffee and chocolate farm were so knowledgeable and we learned a lot. Plus the fresh coffee and hot cocoa were amazing. The tour at the sloth sanctuary was also great. We learned a lot and got to see a sloth close-up. High recommend. Suggest bringing bug spray for the rainforest hike.
Hello! Belinda Thanks a lot for your comments about this culture and wildlife tour. I appreciate you book trough oír company. Hope to see you one more time in Costa Rica to do another great experience excursion. At your service! Guanacaste Adventure & Travel
The property we visited to view the sloths and other wildlife is locally owned and operated and the guides are volunteers from the nearby community. The chocolate and coffee tour was also at a small local farm. We try to support small local businesses when traveling as much as possible as we’ve had some of our most memorable experiences that way. Luckily for us, our wonderful tour guide Wilmar of Guanacaste Adventure Tours has the same philosophy. Use Wilmar if you are looking for an authentic local experience! At the wildlife sanctuary, we saw several sloths, frogs and even a small boa constrictor. One sloth was hanging out in a tree at our eye level so we were able to get some great pictures. The property also has many beautiful plants and trees to and our guide explained their traditional uses to us. The coffee and cocoa tour was hands-on and we got the opportunity to grind cacoa and coffee the old fashioned way. Very interesting!
