• 5Peaceful trip to the Monteverde Cloud Forest with an Exceptional Guide

  This was an amazing experience that stands out as one of our favorites in Costa Rica. The forest was lush, misty, and magical. The view of the forest from above the clouds was peaceful and felt spiritual. It was truly awe-inspiring. One of the things that made this trip so special was our guide, Steven (Stephen?). He was exceptionally knowledgeable and genuinely proud to share this part of Costa Rica. Because my phone is older and the camera not so great, he took high-quality photos and video clips using his own phone and then shared them with us. If you have the chance, you should definitely request Steven as your guide when you book. I don't think you will be disappointed.

• 5Top experience

  It was a great experience! Fernando expanded our knowledge of Costa Rica and kept us entertained during the whole journey. Riding the sky tram and walking on the hanging bridges seeing the tree tops feels very refreshing. A lot of greenery out there. They also opened a new glass bridge recently, so you will see everything under your feet.

• 5Great trip with fantastic guide and driver.

  Great trip. Our driver Brian and guide Steven were fantastic. Friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. The tour itself is well organised with the highlight being the Cloud Forest and Hanging Bridges. Lunch was very good. Would recommend this tour. It’s a long day, but well worth it.

• 5Great trip to Monteverde

  We had a great tour with Alex as our knowledgeable guide/driver! We enjoyed the stops along the way (cute monkeys were an highlight) and had a great time exploring the hanging bridges. It was a wonderful way to experience Monteverde from San Jose without the hassle of renting a car and driving on the narrow curving roads. Alex also made a few stops just to enjoy the scenic views so that we could take photos!

About San José

San José is Costa Rica's capital in the high Central Valley, a working city of theatres, markets and museums, close to volcanoes and coffee farms.

San José sits in a mountain-ringed valley at about 1,100 metres, where the climate is mild year-round. The neoclassical National Theatre, opened in 1897, is the city's finest building, and the Pre-Columbian Gold Museum and the Jade Museum show the artistry of ancient peoples. The Central Market, a maze of food stalls, coffee sellers and craft shops, keeps its old rhythm, and Barrio Amón and Barrio Escalante have grand houses and newer cafés.
