This tour absolutely rocked and especially for being priced at $85. It blows my mind that anyone could complain about the price of this tour, the activities or the staff, considering how many fun and exciting activities are being offered while being surrounded by the beautiful surroundings and the highly motivated and outgoing staff. This is a great deal for... More

I cannot say enough positive things about this tour, hotel, and restaurant. We went to CR for 1 week and visited Arenal, Tamarindo, with our last 2 days at Hacienda Guachipelin. Our family-2 adults and 2 kids ages 11 and 13 thought this was the best day ever. We have previous ziplined but this tour also includes rapelling and rock... More

Many people say $85 per person is a lot of money but what do you expect when you are ziplining, tubing, horseback riding, enjoying thermal springs and volcanic mud? I think these people are out of their minds and its a great deal considering all of the activities you are taking part in -- plus a lunch buffet is included!... More

We had our Adventures Tours day pass booked through our B&B. We planned a full day for this, as recommended, but weren't as timely on our departure as we had liked. Though we were already ensconced in the adventure that is Costa Rica, sleeping in a tree house next to monkey's and Iguana's and bats, our 1.5 hour travels from... More

At $80/p this day is not a cheap one for a family. The kids (7 and 9) liked it, even though they were not heavily impressed. This tour is not for thrillseekers. More like an active day for the average coach potato. The ziplining is over very short distances. The wallclimbing is 1 wall. The rapelling....again only once. Horsebackriding is... More

This park is awesome!!! You pay 20 bucks to get in then another 60 for your specific adventure. For our 60 we did the following: horse back riding, then tubing down a class I class II white waters, then onto zip-lining, onto rock climbing, and finally the waterfalls with a stop at the hot springs or mud baths.

Our family was in Tamarindo. The driver was Martin who was recommended by Blue Water Properties from whom we rented our condo. We left about 6 a.m. and stopped for rolls and coffee in Liberia. The drive itself is about one hour and 45 minutes from Tamarindo. There are 4 activities for those 9 and up, depending on strength and... More

The booking staff very efficient. The hike is strenuous. Takes about 7-8 hours to complete. Cesar the guide is very knowledgeable about the Volcano.plants,birds and animals. I would recommend this trip. Ask for Cesar as guide.

What a fun-filled, action-packed, and full day we spent at Adventure Tours. With one Adventure Day Pass, we got to do tons of activities. Your day starts with Zip-Lining 7-8 cables, and 20+ platforms (some platforms were for the tarzan swing, or associated with the optional rock-climbing / rappelling). Even though I was a bit scared, the Adventure Tours staff... More
