Visiting CR for the first time for our anniversary and decided to book this private tour while staying in Santa Teresa. Ernesto was our guide and he was THE BESTO!! Picked us up as promised, on time, and was super friendly and funny - the best dad jokes! He even shared his personal snacks on the trip to the park because I forgot to eat breakfast. Once we arrived, Ernesto shared so much of his knowledge with us about all species, flora and fauna. We learned so much! he even gave us gifts of origami using palm fronds to make a rose and a grasshopper. Would 100% recommend this excursion and hope to cross paths with Ernesto again!
