Isla Tortuga in Costa Rica is a beautiful small perfect tropical island… until the Bay Island Cruises “ship” arrives with its 150+ person drunk group with the tacky loud music. (thier web site says 65 people, I promise you it was twice that) I thought the Bay Island Cruises trip was the one of the worst tourist traps I have... more
The boat ride to and from Isla Tortuga was just as beautiful as the island. Varso Travel set up the day for us. We travelled out the island ( we saw dolphins on the way) and they provided a delicious snack of watermelon and pineapple. Then we got back into the book and heading out a bit into the water... more
Took a day trip from Montezuma and it was absolutely breathtaking. Decent snorkeling around the island, but I think it's nicer just to sit and relax on the beach which is amazing. The tour guides also cooked us fresh cooked and caught food for lunch on the island. The island's also completely uninhabited, has no running water, etc. Very bare... more
This once lovely spot has gone to the hogs. It's become a tourist trap. We did the Calypso Tour and were disappointed in both the island and the food.

(Birds, Monkeys, Wild Boars). The boat ride to the Isle is relaxing and the way home is one of the best ways to view the... more
I write this review with a bit of a bias. I've traveled to many Caribbean Islands and based on descriptions was expecting something like them in Isla Tortuga. We went with Zuma Tours. They did a great job, were friendly and made a terrific lunch, included in the day tour as well as 2 outtings to snorkel. I did not... more
Es un lugar muy hermoso que se conserva con minimas alteraciones por influencia del ser humano. No hay habitantes a... more
