This was a nice taste of San Jose. It was raining off and on and dark so having the bus taking us from spot to spot was helpful. Our guide was knowledgeable and gave a nice history of the different stops. The dinner was good and a good way to end the tour. Wish we had time for more exploring, off to board a cruise.

Smooth pick up and drop off. Excellent guide, very informative. Lots of little extra touches (guitar player on bus, etc)Dinner was lovely but too much food; couldn’t finish!).

This was a totally disappointing tour. Didn’t live up to the hype. Restaurant was dreadful, not the place any tourists or for that matters local would visit through choice.
