Poas Volcano and La Paz Waterfall Gardens Private Tour

Wonderful day trip from San Jose. The Pao Volcano was stunning and La Paz Waterfall Gardens we beautiful. Our guide, Maryi, was excellent. She shared a lot of information about the history and geography of Costa Rica and was very knowledgeable about the flora and fauna. Our driver, Jose, was great, too. I highly recommend this trip.

We three had a spectacular day with Mario (an excellent driver) and Margie (knowledgeable, charming and oh-so-patient). The weather did not cooperate but that did not "dampen" our spirits (even though our Poas Volcano group shot has nothing but an expanse of gray behind us) as we learned from Margie. The La Paz Waterfall Gardens were exceptional - a truly lovely botanical environment and the fauna were interesting and well taken care of (which is not always the case). Our buffet lunch was tasty and the rice pudding so good. And then there was the walk to the waterfalls - oh, my - they are lovely. And Mario and Margie were kind enough to honor our request to stop for strawberries to take back to our hotel. A full day outing that exceeded our expectations.

Tour guides were great. Only disappointment was the heavy fog which set in above the volcano. Waiting for it to move out but it was very thick. The waterfall and the Peace Lodge where we stopped for lunch were great! Butterfly house and animal rescue were great! Wish we could have seen the volcano but that was nothing the tour could control. Private tour definitely better than taking large group tours on a bus.

A fantastic tour! Even though the Poas Volcano wasn’t visible due rain and fog it was still a great experience. The La Paz Waterfalls are powerful and majestic. The Gardens were the highlight of the trip. We saw an amazing collection of animals (all of them are rescues) in a serene setting. The gardens had monkeys, reptiles, amphibians, sloths, all kinds of jungle cats ( including a jaguar), exotic birds and butterflies that we would not have been able to see otherwise. The lunch was delicious as well. Highly recommend this tour.

Poas Volcano is very impressive and there arse some nice waterfalls in La Paz. Our guide Roxana was knowledgeable and kind. We surely enjoyed our Sunday tour.

Best Tourguides ever! Thank you, we had a wonderful day, made great experiences and the organisation was fantastic- we hope to see you again- pure vida!

Despite it being too cloudy to see the crater's volcano, we very much enjoyed the tour. The Waterfall Gardens had many animals and birds to see, and the waterfalls themselves were quite picturesque. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, and spoke English very well. Be prepared for long travel times, as the roads can be slow if you end up behind large trucks or buses making frequent stops.

This experience was incredible. The care from Nuria and Edgar was wonderful. The falls were breathtaking and worth the many stairs. The volcano was hard to see due to cloud cover but we got a couple of good photos when the clouds broke. No lagoon for us as the volcano had erupted with hot gases and heat the month before our visit. It was still an interesting site to see. Lots of flora and fauna. Meal at La Paz Waterfalls was plentiful and nice variety. The animal preserve was so much fun and very well maintained. The toucans and hummingbirds were flying around us..one word WOW.

Amazing tour! Gorgeous views. Marco was wonderful. He was informative and funny. We never felt rushed or pressured to move along. Thank you for giving us the best tour that we took during our week long stay in beautiful Costa Rica!!!!!

We had a wonderful time with our tour guide Cristian A and driver Don Mario. They were very friendly and welcoming. They went above and beyond to ensure we had a good tour. Highly recommend!
