Gio Tours provided a splendid day trip in Costa Rica when our ship was in port. We had the convenience and comfort of a 6 person van, rather than competing with the cruise ship tour buses at a considerable savings. Gio Tours let us create our own custom tour based on our interests and the amount of time we had... More

Gio Tours did the entire tour for us even though there were only 4 who signed up. This made for a very personal touch. Chris was aiting for us on the pier at the... More

In port we were approach by a tour guide for CIO Tours, Humberto Leal, aka "Charle Brown". The cost was $20.00 a piece. Charlie Brown was an... More

We had not arranged a shore excursion through the cruise ship, Coral Princess, as we planned to get to a few art shops in and around San Jose on our own. We met another couple on the ship and decided to book a guide together. After having spoken to another guide offering his services as we disembarked, I spoke to... More

Professional from the moment we were picked up till the tour was over. The staff was very friendly, the transportation was top class, and comfortable. I loved the Zip line tour! Our kids 14, and 9, loved it! You cant go wrong with Gio Tous. More
