Espectacular Eco-Tour Palo Verde y Aventura por la Zona Azul

The tour exceeded our expectations. We love the country side and the different kinds of animals that we saw. Our guide Guillermo was extremely professional, knowledgeable and helpful. We arrived late for the pick up but he stayed and waited until we arrived. The experience was exceptional and unforgettable.

This was our best excursion. Our tour guide was the best. If you are taking this tour I would recommend Maymo to be your tour guide. He is very knowledgeable and friendly. We had the best time with him. We requested him for all of our tours.

Our guide Herbert was amazing!! Our day started with him spotting McCall birds and stopping so we could photograph them! It’s ended with him finding us tons of iguanas that we could stop and take photos of. Everything in between the water ride and spotting all of the animals on the river was amazing. Definitely highly recommend.!!

A nice excursion for those who do not want to do a lot of walking while at the same time getting to see some for wildlife of the area. Our tour guide was excellent and took his time explaining things about the country and its history.

Excellent tour guide Guillermo. Very knowledgeable about the area. Boat tour about 1.5 hrs and various stops to and from the river finding a large variety of local wildlife including white faced monkeys and their babies, crocs, iguanas, blue heron, holler monkeys. Boat manouvered close to the shoreline to allow us to see the wildlife.

Couple took the 6 hour Palo Verde tour with Nesmer as the driver and Jonathan as the guide on Dec 2nd. On the drive there they shared a lot of information on Costa Rica. A stop at Filidelphia allowed us to stretch our legs and view several iguanas, they even provided lettuce to attract the iguanas from the trees for a private photo shoot. Boat tour up the river was well run and our Costour guides along with Palo Verde staff and other guide worked together to locate a wide variety of wildlife. We stayed on the river in search of white faced Monkies near the end and Nesmer spotted a group and a photo shoot followed. Lunch proved by Palo Verde staff was absolutely wonderful, chicken, rice, beans, salad, plaintains, green bean dish, banana ceviche and dessert. Jonathan also provided us several photos to add to our collection. Highly recommended! We also used Costours for our airport transfers. Thanks Costours!

Our guide Nesmer did a fantastic job of making sure that our group got the most of this day. We encountered Capuchin Monkeys, Howler Monkeys, Crocodiles (up close), a variety of birds, lizards, bats and iguanas. We followed that up with a delicious lunch including chicken, salad, plantain, fried cheese, sautéed veggies, beans, rice, dragonfruit juice and coconut/dragonfruit sorbet. Our new friend Willie then demonstrated how local pottery is created. This was the easily best day of our week long vacation. Highly recommend requesting Nesmer as a guide. He’s funny, affable and knowledgeable.

Alberto, our guide, introduced us to the secret Costa Rica: the howler monkeys, the sand mining of the river, the typical traditional meal the artisan pottery, and of course the navigation on the river, meeting with crocodiles ... An unforgettable day!

From start to finish this tour was organized and very enjoyable. Our guide (I believe his name was Umberto) was what made the experience so memorable. His attention to detail and his willingness to accommodate all our needs was incredible. Thanks for the great adventure.

I can't say enough good things about this tour company. We did 2 tours with them, the Palo Verde boat ride and the Rincon de la Vieja Combo. Both were excellent. Alberto was our guide both times. He is knowledgeable, interesting, and fun and knows how to move things at a good tempo. He was a delight to meet and learn about his life! Kevin, the owner, was also with us on the first day. He's also great and we really enjoyed getting to know him and learn about his life too. I would absolutely book another tour with this company and encourage anyone to do the same! Really fun, varies, and interesting!
