My wife and I spent a few hours with Victor of Vic-tours as he guided us through Carara Nature Reserve in late March.  He is smart and witty and we learned so much. He really enhanced our appreciation of the area.  We would love to go back to Costa Rica, with Victor as our guide.     More

If you are interested in daily excursions, leaving from Riu Guanacaste, then a morning trip to the beach to visit Victor (http://victourscr.com/) is a must! This man and his boy 'Berto took exceptionally good care of us. We used him to arrange zip lining, horseback riding, white water rafting, and ATVing. We even hired him and 'Berto to be our... More

We stayed at the Riu, in Feb. 2012. We knew Victor from the year before. We did the ATV tour in the morning.... it was AWESOME! Got to see amazing beaches, views and towns! Plus you get to ride down little roads and have fun just ATVing, it's nothing like you can do at home! Also did the Horse Back-riding,... More

Victor was a wonderful tour guide and truly made our experience the best it could be. He was very knowledgable and engaged continously with each of us on our tour ofCarrera National Park. I learned quite a bit but most importantly, had a lot of FUN. Thank you Victor for a great tour! More

My husband, 20 year old daughter and I spent 5 wonderful days in Costa Rica. For three of those days we were guided by Victor Chavez of Vic-Tours. What a gem he is! He is personable, knowledgeable, reliable and very fairly priced. He was very astute in recognizing what our particular likes and needs were and made wonderful suggestions. He... More

My wife and I spent a day and half with Victor and he was great. As a tour guide he is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, patient and flexible (and speaks great English). However, you will walk away and remember Victor as more than a tour guide- he makes you feel like family. My wife and I are planning on going back... More
