Palo Verde And Liberia Excusion

Published on Nov, 2022

The guide provided by Swiss Travel, Abel Ramirez, was excellent. He was very knowledgeable about many topics, very personable and pleasant. It was great to know there is a conservationist movement in Costa Rica which Abel explained to us. He went over and beyond to make the tour very interesting and special. He is a true asset to the company he works for. The driver provided was also very helpful and courteous. The boat guide was very knowledgeable and pointed out the wildlife during the excursion and also some interesting historical information. All three of them were local from nearby communities. The city tour was amazing. They arrived promptly and followed the schedule. We were very pleased with the entire experience.

Great trip!

Great trip! We have seen a lot of animals, monkeys, alligators and birds. Our guide Rafael was amazing. Best experience!

Amazing Wildlife

Published on Mar, 2019

Fantastic tour, we saw more wildlife in it’s natural habitat than we saw in the wildlife sanctuary. Just absolutely stunning from owls to monkeys to bats to toucans to reptiles. The boat tour did not let down. Then the city tour was informational, and we stopped at a gift stop that only sold items from Costa Rica. A+ tour

Great tour of the area and the river!

Published on Feb, 2018

Swiss tours was great led by our guide Saul. Very knowledgeable on many fronts including the National election that was taking place that very day. Very interesting mix of culture, politics and nature. The river cruise was well worth it, saw multiple crocs, iguanas and even saw some capuchin monkeys at the end of tour. Little bit of a bumpy ride there but that was to be expected. Great way to spend a half day! Ask for Saul!
