Where do I start? This tour had everything. Allan was our driver and tour guide. He did an amazing job explaining everything. You can tell he definitely knew the area. We saw the white faced monkeys, crocodiles, and all kinds of exotic birds. We even got an opportunity to spend a little time at the beach. Lunch was good too, and we had so many options to choose from. This tour was the last one that we did before leaving the island, and was DEFINITELY the BEST tour overall!This is by far the best tour and transportation company in Costa Rica. I have been coming to Costa Rica for over 30 years and have used numerous tour & travel companies. It is a hit or miss proposition. About a dozen years ago I found Odyssey.

This is by far the best tour and transportation company in Costa Rica. I have been coming to Costa Rica for over 30 years and have used numerous tour & travel companies. It is a hit or miss proposition. About a dozen years ago I found Odyssey. All their vehicles are new and state of the are with Wi-Fi. Their drivers are super courteous and knowledgeable. Whenever I have friends or family coming to Costa Rica, I always recommend this company and have never been disappointed. Weather you just need transportation or an adventure tour, you can't go wrong with them.We ended up booking this excursion through Viator but wished we had booked directly with the local company directly. We were met at the port by our driver. There was our group of 4 and another couple of 2. We were told 2 different times to meet at the end of the pier, but luckily we got off the s...
We ended up booking this excursion through Viator but wished we had booked directly with the local company directly. We were met at the port by our driver. There was our group of 4 and another couple of 2. We were told 2 different times to meet at the end of the pier, but luckily we got off the ship early and they didn’t have to wait for us. Allen, our driver was knowledgeable and shared information about the area. We were taking to an area right off the main road where we saw monkeys and were able to feed them banana slices and get as many photos as we wanted. We then drove south to where we boarded a boat for a 30 minute ride down the river towards the ocean while the guides explained bout the birds in the area and crocodile habitat. We then proceeded back up the rive nod about 100 yards past where we caught the bot, we found a large male crocodile one one side of the river and a larger female on the other side. We ere Blue to get plenty of photos. We then drove to a local restaurant where a delicious lunch was provided. We then headed south to a beach area where we were able to walk on the beach nd check out several of the local vendors. After about an hour t this location, we started the drive back to the port, arriving in plenty of time to catch the ship. Overall we enjoyed our day.This tour was amazing. It was a last minute selection after we arrived to Jaco. Our guide, Albert, was so nice and very knowledgeable. Our driver was very skilled at navigating the roads.

This tour was amazing. It was a last minute selection after we arrived to Jaco. Our guide, Albert, was so nice and very knowledgeable. Our driver was very skilled at navigating the roads. This tour was beyond what we expected and we loved it! We covered so much ground and had many stops (perfect photo ops). This tour is a must! Highly recommend.This tour was nice. They picked us up from our hotel and drove us to see the Monkey Farm, there we saw many monkeys that actually live in the area, but are wild and free. Not what we were expecting.

This tour was nice. They picked us up from our hotel and drove us to see the Monkey Farm, there we saw many monkeys that actually live in the area, but are wild and free. Not what we were expecting. Our next stop was to do the boat ride to see crocodiles and birds. The guide of this part of the tour was very knowledgeable and funny. He showed us the birds of the area, and spotted 2 crock that were in the area. The drive to the panoramic point was kind of worthless. The food at the restaurant we stopped was very good. In general the guide Alberto was very good, spoke great English and gave us great tips for other tours.We were fortunate to have the guide all to ourselves so we had Carlos’s “aka Charlie Sheen” full attention. This was the first of many tours and we’re glad we did so. Carlos was a wealth of knowledge and provided many tips on the area and what to look out for. I recommend this tour to all first t...
We were fortunate to have the guide all to ourselves so we had Carlos’s “aka Charlie Sheen” full attention. This was the first of many tours and we’re glad we did so. Carlos was a wealth of knowledge and provided many tips on the area and what to look out for. I recommend this tour to all first timers as we were - it’s nice to gain some perspective in a new environment. The included boat trip and monkey visit were icing on the cake.
