Great tour, it was the highlight of our trip!

We had a wonderful time, it was the highlight of our trip to Costa Rica! The entire day was fun and we saw so many great things, including many sloths! During the drive to the waterfalls, the tour guide would occasionally provide information about Costa Rica which was also really nice to hear and learn about. We would absolutely recommend this tour!
beauty with a big price tag

The tour company was Native's Way who appear to be well organized but a bit too expensive as they charged additional amount for pick up from the hotel I was staying at. Also these places can be accessed on one's own and did not offer any additional input. Costa Rica is an an exceptionally beautiful country with very friendly people but the tour companies appear to have devoured the market share of tourism making these places expensive to visit.
A must do for Guanacaste, Costa Rica

I would highly recommend taking this excursion! From the knowledge of the guides, breathtaking scenery and an abundance of wildlife, you will leave with some great memories and photos! A quick shout out to Santos (our tour guide) for his hospitality! I did the self drive option and he included my group as if we were on his van!
Great tour, long hike, great scenery, knowledgeable tour guide.

Breath-taking to fully experience the splendors of Costa Rica. Guide “Hector” was extremely informative and ensured everyone was comfortable and have an amazing experience. He also is a pro at getting the proper angles for taking photos for you. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone vacationing in Costa Rica and Hector enhanced the experience. *****
Good tour - Natives Way

Rio Celeste waterfall, getting into the water would have made it even more impressive but didn’t get that tour, worth the wait in line once arrive at the national park. Sloth Sanctuary was informative got to see several sloths but the were napping up in the trees.
