My family booked the 1/2 day river rafting trip and we loved every minute!
The bus picked us up promptly from our villa. It was clean and air conditioned, and all aspects of the drive and the experience were handled well-very professional in all regards. The Tenorio river was beautiful. The guides were experienced and extremely capable, as well as fun to be with. Their pleasant personalities added to the fun. We are a family of 19, and ll ages from 78 to 7 were cared for and well attended. Everyone had a great time!! We felt that all safety precautions were taken, and we felt confidence in all our rafting guides. The pictures taken of the experience were very high quality, and so much fun to look at after the trip. I definitely recommend purchasing them; reliving the trip through the pictures is definitely great. The trip was also planned well. Snacks were provided before the bus ride to the lunch area-so no one went hungry or thirsty. The lunch was well planned, and tasty enough--and then we boarded the bus back to our home. The bus ride was long, though. It was necessary because we were at sea level in Tamarindo, and the river is in the mountains. And of course, there was holiday traffic on the way home. This was explained to us so we understood, but it would have been better if we had known how long the ride was before we signed up for the trip. It was booked as a half day rafting trip with lunch, but in reality, it was a full day's adventure. This shouldn't deter anyone from doing the rafting trip, though. The experience of the rafting is well worth the drive. These memories will last a lifetime. Costa Rica and this rafting experience are perfect examples of the pura vida lifestyle of the country--the people organizing it and running it were happy, courteous, and helpful. They even looked as if they were enjoying the experience, too. One other thing--having water booties was a good thing to wear -just for walking over the few rocks to get to the rafts. I bought mine there-but they didn't have all sizes. Most people on our trip did not have them-so it is not a requirement, but I found it helpful. ( I am 77.) It might be better to buy them at the souvenir shops in town if you choose to wear them.

Booking with Tour Guanacaste was my best Costa Rican experience! I was highly impressed with how quick they helped me to organize the tours for my whole family. The tours were all punctual and the guides kept everyone entertained. We saw so many of the sights on our wish list and it was so relaxing not having to find our own way around! We definitely recommend this booking system and will book other tours next time we go!

We booked two excursions with Tour Guanacaste in 2019 for a 2020 trip, and we had to cancel due to the pandemic. The company saved our deposits and two years later (2021), are deposits were still valid and able to be used. Communication with the company was excellent! We did the Arenal volcano hike and the white water rafting excursions. We had private transportation for both and lunch included. The experiences were absolutely amazing - big highlights of our trip, and the food at each stop was delicious. Also, our driver/guide, Guillermo, was very friendly, courteous, and a great driver.

We arranged a private tour for 2 adults and 2 children ages 7 and 11 with Greg before arriving in the area. It was simple to book the ATV tour online and Greg was responsive to email and was able to give us the family friendly tour we were after. Trails were family friendly yet still exciting, beaches were beautiful and a blast to ATV on and both the kids and adults had a fantastic time and hope to return in the future. Thanks for making this an incredible experience!

Unfortunately, I have to provide a negative review. I booked the "Jungle & Mountains" buggy tour through Tour Guanacaste, which was supposed to provide us with a 4-person buggy so my whole family could ride together. I confirmed my reservation multiple times, including the day before our tour. When we arrived at the tour operator (Congo Trail), they had no record of our reservation and the was no availability for the buggy as their buggy's were already booked on other tours. Since there was no buggy available, I opted to take my 11 year old in tandem with me on an ATV, and my wife and daughter did not go on the tour. The tour provided by Congo Trail was great and my son had a blast. However, Tour Guanacaste is just a booking agent in this case, and they messed up the booking process so my wife and daughter could not participate. You would be better off booking directly with the actual tour operator, Congo Trail, so you don't risk a mistake on your reservation.

I used this tour company for just about everything! Greg was SO helpful from day 1 and answered all my many questions. He arranged everything I needed and followed up accordingly. We did zip-lining, ATV's, horseback riding, animal visits, monkey visits and jet-skiing. We had an amazing trip and that was due to their support and service!
