This was chaos from the beginning - the tour operator forgot about us. To give him credit, he showed up in his private vehicle and drove dangerously on backroads of Costa Rica to catch us up to the original tour. Apparently Viator had the wrong time listed (PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK WITH TOUR OPERATOR! THIS iS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED) and the operator overlooked our booking. We walked miles in the dark trying to find our tour... it could have been a dangerous situation. When we reached the tour, it was all in Spanish... we are English only. We did see 2 mama turtles nesting and 10 baby turtles working their way to the ocean... so that was great! Then when we got in the tour bus to leave, we suddenly pulled off the side of the road and were transferred to another car... my husband thought we were being kidnapped! scary experience
