Sunset Tours is a reputable, honest company! You will not be disappointed in their professionalism, tour ideas, and rates. An added bonus is Tour Guide, Jason. He is professional, knowledgeable, and always adds a humorous quip to make any and all laugh and enjoy the trip!

My friends and I went on the Venado Cave tour with David as our guide and it was great!! Thank you Sunset Tours Sorry that it is in English. I almost didn't go because I had seen that there were a lot of tight spaces to climb through. Being that I am 6 feet tall (not super tall) and with... More

My husband and I booked the Arenal Volcano Hike with this company. It was a good experience and we were so happy the clouds cleared for us to see the whole volcano! I recommend the morning hike so you have a better chance of seeing the volcano instead of it being covered in clouds. Anyway, our guide David was excellent.... More

We booked a guided trip to Rio Celeste through Desafio, who chose Sunset Tours as our guide company. This was our favorite tour in Costa Rica (we went to Monteverde and La Fortuna). We were the only two on the tour that day. We had so much fun with our guide Deiber (David) and our driver Maurio. They are really... More

We were bored one afternoon and booked the Safari Float on the Penas Blanca river as a last minute thing. Boy were we surprised. Our guide Jason made it so much fun. He spotted animals all along the river and pulled over when we wanted to take pictures even if it meant he had to jump out of the raft... More

My friend and I went canyoning (repelling down waterfalls and cliffs, jumping off rocks, zip lining...) with Sunset Tours and it was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Costa Rica! We are still raving about our experience! The guides were knowledgeable, very nice, and enthusiastic about the experience. They kept us safe and encouraged us to just... More

Without a doubt, one of the biggest highlights of our 3-week trip to Costa Rica was our river float cruise guided by ZANDER. He was absolutely incredible: knowledgeable, friendly, fluent in English, and outrageously funny. We all LOVED him! Also, we were unbelievably lucky to see incredible wildlife. But even if we hadn't been so lucky to see so many... More

We were so impressed by our guide at Sunset! We regret forgetting his name so that we can credit him for a wonderful experience. He took us to the hanging bridges and a guided hike through the rainforest. He was professional and endlessly knowledgable. Passionate about the jungle, about ecology and clearly studies his trade for his own pleasure as... More

Guides were personable and very knowledgeable about the area. They spotted numerous different wildlife species and gave great descriptions about each species. Had a great time. Stopped half-way through and enjoyed fresh pineapple, watermelon, and bananas (all grown in Costa Rica).

Hi - we went on two tours recently with Sunset Tours when in the Costa Rica Arenal area and LOVED them! Our guide Jason was the best ever...very knowledgeable, friendly and professional too. He was able to point out all kinds of animals, plants and even a rare "never been seen" snake! We enjoyed our time even more because of... More
