Combo Tour from Puerto Limon

Beautiful experience in Lemon. Eduardo was our host and could not be better. Helpful, friendly, very knowledgeable about the Lemon area, so you won't end up doubtful and very comical. I learned and laughed a lot. The boat, landscapes, fauna and flora and land experience was spectacular. Don't stop contacting Eduardo. You'll have an amazing time. GUARANTEED!!

Eduardo & Andy (our authorized driver) did a fantastic job. The tour was very leisure and not scripted. We enjoyed Eduardo's pride he took in sharing his knowledge about his home country.... Highly recommend!

My husband and I went on a fantastic tour with Maurice (a private tour arranged through Your Lucky Tour). My husband has mobility issues so we could not do the jungle tour. Instead, we went to a plantation, and Parque Nacional Cahuita. We had a fabulous time. Maurice took the time to explain things at the plantation. After touring some at the planation, we even tried fresh bananas and cacao. We saw a number of plants, fruits, coffee beans, bananas, cacao, jack fruit and plantains growing, which was very fascinating. He also showed us around Puerto Lima and pointed out different places of interest. We passed by huge plantations which are run by Dole, Chiquita Banana and Del Monte. Now when I go to the grocery store to buy bananas, and they say Costa Rica, I know the basic area where they are grown. After the planation, we went to Parque Nacional Cahuita. Maurice knew that I wanted to see the monkeys, toucans, and sloths. We also saw a group of raccoons running on the beach. The park did not disappoint in the least. This is a gorgeous park and worth the time exploring. There were 2 different kinds of monkeys that we saw -- Capuchino and Howler monkeys. The monkeys were everywhere in the trees. It was so cute seeing a mother and baby monkey. My favorite picture that I took was the sloth sleeping in a tree. It was a small tree, and the sloth just blended in. I got pretty close to the sloth for the picture. The sloth was so cute and just hidden in the tree. It looked like it was a young sloth. I would highly recommend a tour through Your Lucky Tour. Because we had booked a private tour, we could move at our own pace, which was just perfect for us. Thank you, Maurice for a fantastic tour and thank you Eduardo for introducing us to him and hiring such a competent and knowledgeable guide.

Nice day in the land of Pura Vida. Trip was right sized and right length. Guide and driver went out of their way to help us experience what is great about their country. Animal sightings, history and little local touches were what seperated this tour from the44 person ship tour. Oh and the sloths birds and howler monkeys were just as advertised. We have been to Costa Rica five times before and it never disappoints.

Excellent tour. Very knowledgeable and informative. So friendly and showed us what Costa Rica is really like. Price is fair and much better than a cruise ship bus trip

I took a private tour with Eduardo from Your Lucky Tour through the Tortuguero Canal and Cahuita National Park. It was truly an authentic experience. I was able to view Sloths, Iguanas many types of birds and even Howler monkeys in the wild. It was a beautiful day and I really enjoyed learning about all the different types of plants that grow in Costa Rica. I even enjoyed some of the Costa rican cuisine which was a nice experience. We were on our own time and I never felt rushed yet we had plenty of time to return to the ship. I highly recommend this tour!

We were in Puerto Limón on a cruise, but I did not want to take a cruise shore excursion because they often feel overcrowded and rushed. Eduardo offered a guide and a private tour for our family (4 people) and we had a great time exploring Tortuguero Canals and Cahuita National Park. We really wanted to see a sloth, monkeys, and wildlife, and all our wishes came true. 😊 We also had a stop at a local fruit market and got to try local coffee, bananas, etc. Our guide was really nice, the van was very comfortable, we felt safe in a new country, and had plenty of time to explore and get back to the ship well ahead of its departure time. This was our first visit to Costa Rica and I look forward to coming back!

I contacted Eduardo via the Lucky Tours website regarding a small group tour from our cruise ship. We were given easy directions to follow on where & when to meet our tour guide. Our guide Cooper, driver Eric and Eduardo ensured we had a great day. Before we even made it to the Tortuguero Canal we stopped to view and take photos of two sloths besdie the road. We joined another small group of people on the boat ride on the canal. We saw several sloths, howler monkeys, a caiman, a crocodile, several species of birds and a Basalisk lizard. My husband didn't always have enough time to get photos (with his SLR) as the boat driver turned the boat around fairly quickly. We stopped briefly at a fruit stall and tasted several different fruits. In hindsight we should have bought something to eat at the stall. Our next stop was Cahuita National Park. My DH stopped pretty early on in our walk and sat and enjoyed the breeze coming in off the ocean. We decided it was too hot to walk back via the beach. All the sloths were pretty high up in the trees, howerver we were able to get pretty good views of some of the monkeys, the racoons and the lizards we saw. We bought a bag of fresh pineapple from a stall holder at the entrance to the park as it was almost 2pm. We drove back through town and stopped at a restaurant high up above the town where we had a great view of our ship in port. Our group decided it would be good to have a drink here before returning to the port. We arrived back at the port around 3pm.

The tour was very nice, very informative. The staff at your lucky tour were great. A good combination of humor and information. We were able to see quite a few sloths, a white face monkey and other wildlife. I would definitely recommend the tour.

When on cruise ships, I tend to book my tours independently as it gives the money to the local companies and are generally much cheaper. This is the first time in 16 years that it didn't work. My tour was to the Tree of Life Animal Sanctuary and an unguided walk around the Cahuita National Park with Lucky Tours. I was met at the terminal by Eduardo and a lovely driver who was our guide for the day and, as requested, we were among the very first to get off the ship to meet them. By the time we got to the Tree of Life, the cruise ship tour bus arrived at exactly the same time BUT while they had a private tour at 10,00, we had to wait for the public tour at 11.00. One hour was therefore lost in our very short stay in Costa Rica. By the time we finished that tour, we drove to the National Park only to meet the same tour bus gathering to leave the park to the next venue. After our walk around the park, we met up with our driver and headed back to the ship. Comparing notes with those on the tour bus, they clearly had more time to explore the area and amazingly, the tour price was less than my tour! This has never happened before, normally, an independently booked tour is some 20-30% cheaper. Still all in all, the tour was pretty good but losing the first hour meant we could not do much more once it was over. Better co-ordinating would have made it more pleasant.
