San Jose Tours in September 2026

Two weeks in Costa Rica getting to explore the country's most beautiful and diverse sites was one of the most incredible adventures I have been on. The fact that all places are so unique and diverse from one another and getting to see incredible wildlife throughout the trip was fantastic.

Great all around trip. The guide (Jeff) was organized, attentive and fun to be around. Briefings each day were informative and useful. The food was excellent, camp sites were good. The rafting was very exhilarating. The equipment was in good condition and they were prepared for mishaps. We had bike chain break but they had spare bike readily available. You could push yourself as hard or as easy as you felt comfortable.

Sometimes it felt of beeing on an 18 to 30 ish journey not a classic one I used to book. Maybe I did not read the small print close enough but in the end it was fine and also the nice people in our group made the journey easier and very pleasant at some times especially in the first part of the trip and as well Christian as our leader.

Our guide Oscar was brilliant. We all had such a wonderful family-focused wildlife adventure. The trip was pretty pacey and tiring but also great to pack so many highlights into a fortnight. Also, recommend going in low season (August) as although it is rainy season, we were lucky to see green turtles nesting on one coast and baby humpback whales on the other.

I was very happy with our tour. Our tour manager was very knowledgeable about the areas we went to and was very fun. All the places we went were memorable. I do have to mention that the zip line was especially memorable because it poured rain. Not everyone would like that but I was traveling with my daughter and we were cracking up the whole time. We also loved seeing all the wild life and everyone took pictures and uploaded them to the photo circle. I bought lots is coffee from the Doka tour and loved the farm visit. It’s hard to just narrow things down to a couple of favorites. I would consider going to Costa Rica again!

Oh my gosh! I had the absolute best time in Costa Rica. Our guide Juan Carlos had ALL the knowledge. We asked him everything, history, culture, plants, animals, birds, trees, weather and he had all the answers. My favorite thing was his sense of humor. He always made us laugh and feel welcome. The drivers were amazing too! Ronny was able to spot all the wildlife without any binoculars. Christian was super friendly and engaging as well. My favorite was watching the Green Sea turtles nesting. Such a magical experience. The whale watching was incredible. Whitewater rafting was a blast and lunch was really delicious on the shore. So many amazing memories and such warm and wonderful people. I highly recommend this trip to anyone and demand JC as your guide. Just absolutely the best.
