Did not match the description

The tour was fun but fell short of expectations as it did not match the tour description. We were supposed to tour the coast, stop at ocean lookouts and for a swim. I messaged the tour operator the morning of the tour to verify we should wear bathing suits and they said yes. We did not go anywhere near the coast and did stop to swim anywhere. We toured rural inland dry river beds and stopped in a cool little town for empenadas which were very good. The tour guides were nice. We've done many tours through Viator and have loved all of them. This time, something went wrong.

Operator response

Hi Janice, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. First and foremost, we sincerely apologize for the misunderstanding and for not fully meeting your expectations during the tour. You’re absolutely right — our ATV tour includes the option of exploring coastal areas, with scenic ocean lookouts and even a swim stop. However, we also offer alternative routes through the jungle and rural backroads, depending on group preferences and trail conditions. On the day of your tour, our guide consulted with one of the participants in your group, and they expressed interest in the jungle route, which is why the beach portion wasn’t included. We truly regret that this wasn’t clearly communicated to everyone, and we completely understand your disappointment. Clear communication is key, and your feedback is incredibly helpful for us to improve and ensure this doesn’t happen again. As you’ll see in many of our previous reviews, our guests have indeed enjoyed the beach portions of this tour, which align with the tour description. We’re proud of the experiences we provide and are genuinely sorry this one fell short for you. We appreciate your kind words about our guides and the town visit, and we truly hope to have the chance to offer you a better experience in the future.

Amazing, fun, thrilling and perfect for all ages

What an amazing FUN experience. My husband, 7 year old daughter and 64 year old father had a blast. Miller was our tour guide and we went early January. He picked us up from our AirBnB and drove us to the buggy location. We were fortunate and had no one else booked for that day so it was our buggy and Miller + driver buggy. Miller asked us if we wanted to do more jungle + beach or just jungle and a look out. We opted for look out, and WOW what a lookout it was. The driving conditions were awesome - creeks and rivers, uneven roads, uphill, downhill, you name it, we drove it. We stopped here and there to see some monkeys, birds, grab a little snack at a small store, and even a spot where you can jump into a waterfall. The stops were also appreciated as we could switch up drivers. The buggys are very impressive in terms of capabilities and I would highly recommend this excursion.

It’s wonderful to know that Miller and the team helped make your day unforgettable.

It’s great to hear the buggies impressed you too; they’re built for adventure and it sounds like you made the most of every mile. 🚙🌿 Thank you for recommending us! We’d love to welcome you back for another adventure in the future. Until then, safe travels and pura vida! 💚

This tour was awesome! Milo the tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. He gave us extra time and allowed us to make stops to take pictures anytime we wanted to. The river crossings we need were really cool. Thumbs up all the way. I would totally recommend.

trouble with refund

EDIT: It may have been a misunderstanding. My emails apparantly did not arrive at the right adress. Miller contacted me and we negotiated 200 dollars refund. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bad experience! Me and my two friends paid about 600 usd in advance. At start of the tour we have found out that it was just for one buggy (really). So we asked for extra vehicles and we got 2 buggies and a 4wheeler. We were able to get those three for 791 dollars. During the trip one buggy broke down and we could not use it. We were promised a refund. Waiting, some emails, nothing happened. They just stopped answering. I called the guy and he promised me a refund again. Nothing happened. No money returned, no answers send. Expensive and unreliable. Run by liars.

Operator response

Mr. Nikola, thank you very much for your review, we are very sorry that you have had this inconvenience with the communication, for us is very important that all our clients are satisfied with our service before, during and after having enjoyed our tours, for this reason We gave ourselves the task of following up with you until we managed to contact you to proceed with our promise of refund. What has happened to you with your emails is something that is not in our hands, we are very responsible with our clients and we try our best to ensure that they are always comfortable and satisfied, for this reason we offered you the option of a sideby side 4 seaters thinking 3 of you would like to enjoy the tour together but it was only an option and I think our suggestion was misunderstood. We do not lie, our advertisement is very clear, where we require a minimum of 2 people per machine, with max options of 4 people per machine, in addition to being a 4-hour private tour plus private round-trip transportation to your hotel of approximately 1 hour each way for a total of 6 hours with 3 machines I think the price is more than fair.

Great tour, great guide, great fun!

What a great way to visit a new place. Driving around on those back country dirt roads gives a good feel for the land. Can't say enough good about our guide, Alex. Made many stops along the way where he would explain to us the native flora. Saw a good number of critters as well , including a couple varieties of monkeys. Alex really made the trip! You could feel his excitement when it came time to tell us things. Highly recommend this experience. You won't be disappointed.
