        Great transport experience!
        We used Faro for a door to door transfer from Alajuela area to Monteverde. It was good to be able to set up the trip and ask questions using WhatsApp. We had a very nice trip with them - they were friendly, informative, and the driving felt really safe. They provided on board wifi, and stopped en route at our request. Warm thanks to Ivan and Andrea's! Pura Vida!

        Best Guided Flora & Fawna Trek for Visitors
        This was by far the best guided trek with a lot of variety and surprise sightings. Muchas gracias Justin for being our guide today, your knowledge made the trek interesting and enjoyable. We saw a lot of interesting flora and fawna, took some great photos also. My wife and I highly recommend this location and trek for anyone visiting Monteverde. Pura Vida.

        Great morning in the Cloud Forest
        Had a great tour with Justin. Saw some great wildlife and he answered our many questions. Definitely better to get there early and go with a guide.

        Beautiful Countryside Views
        This was one of my favorite experiences in Costa Rica. Pickup was easy to schedule. Once at the ranch the process of checking in and getting set up to ride was smooth and easy to navigate. Instructions on what to do (first time rider here) were easy to follow and I felt completely safe with a guide at the front of the line and one at the back. The guides helped to keep us moving at a steady pace and to stay together when gaps started occurring. I went with two other friends who were also first-time riders and they both shared that they had a great time and would do it again. We were pleasantly surprised that the "snacks'" that are offered were made fresh with our help. This made the experience more interactive and a learning experience as sugar cane was squeezed through a machine for a fresh drink and sugar cane candy (with and without nuts) was hand churned for a tasty treat. We were also given an empanada style cheese bite and more. Overall, the hillside views were gorgeous. It's not a rain forest ride (which we did not expect it to be but seems that many assume it will be due to the location) but it was beautiful, a nice change of pace and well worth the experience. All staff were very kind and helpful. Added bonus: They have friendly pet dogs on the premises :)

        A Different Perspective
        We went with a young fellow by the name of Justin, who was very informative and helpful. He took some great shots for us using our phone and his telescope. Didn't see a Puma - maybe next time!

        One of the best all around tours in San Jose
        Our guide, Ellier, was fantastic. We learned so much about Costa Rica culture and history. We saw many different sites and he explained a great deal about each one of them. Ellier took great photos of us throughout the city. The lunch was fabulous, and we got to meet a celebrity at the restaurant. He was very accommodating. If you want to learn about Costa Rica and San Hose. We highly recommend this tour.

        Andres made the drive easy!
        My family of 6 traveled from Monteverde to Tamarindo in early Jan 2025 and we were a bit intimidated by the 4 hour bumpy ride. But Andres made the ride comfortable and easy - he even stopped twice when my son was feeling car sick. He was a very safe driver and chatted with us the whole time, pointing out howler monkeys and crocs along the way. Would definitely hang and travel with Andres again!

        3in1 fabulous tour
        The experience was wonderful. The place is very organized and nicely run. The trails are well kept and easy to follow. The scenery was beautiful. It would have been nice to have some information on the geology and the vegetation. We also didn’t ask about it. The lunch was also delicious. It was a marvellous day. I would highly recommend it.

      Very nice tour! The guide was very nice and he explained us lots of things about the volcano and the land nearby. The waterfalls was very nice too. It was a real pleasure to have a bath in the fresh waters! 👍👍👍
