My husband and I had this tour included w/ our trip & it was an incredible experience. Deiber, our guide, introduced us to vegetation & animals all along the way. He could see things we'd never even notice. We saw howler monkeys, crocodiles, snakes in trees, etc., while enjoying the serene ride down the river. He knew his country and... More

We recently did the tour and had a great time. We were with Zander, Jason and Antonio. Zander was great with our small children (6 and 2) and knows a great deal about the area wildlife. This was a great start to our vacation and we saw Howler Monkeys, basilisks, crocs, many types of birds, other reptiles and more. The... More

We used Sunset Tours for our tansportation from San Jose airport to our hotel, then we used them to book our ziplining, repelling, hanging bridges, safari float and tranfer to our next hotel. Our driver, Carlos, made us feel very safe. People drive a little crazy in Costa Rica and I felt very comfortable. The tours were great. There was... More

We went on the monkey boat tour, hanging bridges, and canyoneering tour with Sunset. Each one was great! With the boat tour, we were able to get a first glimpse at the diversity in wildlife and plant life of Costa Rica; it was a great introduction. We had David (Deiber) as our guide, and he was awesome. He was very... More

My husband, son (16) and I went on a rappelling, canyoneering tour with this company and we could not have been more pleased. Edson was our main tour guide but I have to say that all the staff was professional, warm and enthusiatic. I have a fear of heights and I was comforted greatly by the safety precautions and quality... More

We used Sunset Tours for two trips. The first was a visit to the volcano. Fredo, our guide, was very knowledgeable and personable. Even getting caught in a rain storm couldn't dampen our visit! The next day we went canyoneering with the same company. Fredo was one of our guides along with Mario, Ray, and Arturo, our "papparazzi". We had... More

We used Sunset Tours and had a wonderful day! Our guide, Zander, was knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and lots of fun. We walked down the steps to the waterfall and swam in the pool at the base of the falls. Zander was there to encourage, take pictures, and help us make the most of the experience. Next we visited a butterfly... More

"La Roca" - canyoneering with Sunset Tours is, without a question, the most fun thing I have ever done in my whole life. Unlike other rappelling outings - this one has much more to offer. Great lunch, a zip line, a "tarzan" swing, and a couple of direct-jump plunges just like Tom Sawyer did it. This was my first time... More
