Amazing Tour with Esteban

Published on Jan, 2025

Esteban was an amazing tour guide! There were 3 of us in our group with him and he did an awesome job telling us about the culture and the history as we walked the streets, ate in the cafe and sipped hot chocolate. It was beautiful architecture and sightings. I would definitely do it again with a tour guide like Esteban!

Perfect activity for travelers new to San Jose/Costa Rica

Published on Jan, 2025

Very Highly recommended We had an evening to kill in San Jose between our flight landing in the afternoon and heading off to central valley the following morning. We are a family of 4 that includes 17 and 21 year old children. Daniel was our guide and the experience was a perfect way to fill that evening. He was very interesting to listen to and taught us a lot of about CR culture and history. The evening was capped by the best food we had in CR. Note - you only eat at the very end of the tour so don't start out hungry!

This is the second time...

Published on Nov, 2024

This is the second time I've taken this tour while in San Jose, and I learn new things each time. Alejandro took his time and did a great job explaining the history at each stop. It's a great way to spend the evening in the city!

This tour was great! So...

Published on Oct, 2024

This tour was great! So much information and the guides were super knowledgeable about past and present information on the culture and city. There was a mid point stop and there were several options! The only thing was were close to tour guide but there were times being by traffic it was hard to hear. We had a small group so we were about to come closer to guide but if group was large it might be more of a challenge. The route was safe and comfortable for sandals but during the rainy season best probably for tennis (I got lucky).

Explore SA Jose by night.

Our guide, Mary Ann, showed us major San Jose & Costa Rican cultural & historical sights plus, the chocolate drinks, and food were spectacular at the different area stops! We really appreciated her additional in-depth knowledge of mythology and the gardens. We Highly recommend this tour!
