We were pleased with the level of service and the day itself. However, we did not receive the bottles of water that were requested.
The driver was nice and polite. There was not enough information about the park, about the country, or some interesting facts, but overall everything was wonderful! The minibus was quite comfortable as well.
We recommend this excursion and this operator. They are a reliable company, so you can be calm about your choice!

A long drive to Tortuguero National Park. Not many animals to be visible, but it still worth the trip to have an experience there. The driver is very good.

Driver and his buddy were both cool! Buddy was a bit talkative, but all in good vibes. Be ready for long trip to Caribbean coast, 3 hours minimum each way. Outside of that, pleasant trip. Pura Vida!
