The Zuma tours staff was extremely knowledgeable and helpful to our large group. They picked us up at Los Suenos and gave us a great ride to Tortuga Island. The snorkeling and exploring on the beach was great and the guides were very eager to insure that we saw many varieties of ocean life. Lunch on the island was delicious... More

We left from montezuma in the morning for the tour. Very friendly staff, very helpful and responded to all my emails very quickly. One hour boat ride to the island followed directly by one hour snorkeling. I personally didnt see anything excited but some people who went further said they saw so many different fishes. The beach is very nice,... More

The staff at Zuma Tours is very friendly and helpful. Their priority is making sure you have a great experience, not making a dollar. There are other tour companies in Montezuma but only book with these guys. More

We used Zuma Tours to coordinate all of our secondary activities associated with our daughter's destination wedding in Montezuma. Instead of a rehearsal dinner, Ivan, the owner, and his staff coordinated a "rehearsal" snorkeling trip for 32 family and friends. It was a wonderful day. In addition Zuma Tours coordinated car rentals for various members, scheduled water taxis and shuttles... More

Thought about taking the bus from Jaco to Mal Pais, but spent a little more money and took the boat taxi run by Zuma tours instead. The trip was well organized, the staff were helpful and friendly. The boat ride itself was quick and fun (we saw dolphins). We paid an extra 15 dollars per person to be taken from... More

Today Zuma Tours took my husband and I scuba diving. We had a separate pick up place for the boat to pick us up, it was further away but they were willing to pick us up. When the boat came in the morning we were in the wrong spot along the beach and therefore missed the boat but when we... More

This is the only way to get from San Jose to Montezuma if you really want to experience Costa Rica. And I highly recommend booking the snorkeling trip to Tortuga that they offer as well. These guys are true professionals, and absolutely made this experience one of the best vacations we have ever taken. I cannot say enough good things... More

We were picked up form our hotel in Santa Teresa and driven to Montezuma in small mini van. From there it was a 45 minute trip on a super fast twin-engine speedboat to Tortuga Island. The ride can be bumpy and loud although does take you through some lovely scenery once you get closer to the island. It is the... More

Dear Customer, thank you for your review. -About the Diving, this summer the conditions haven’t been that good like usually. -We do subcontract the diving, because this Diving Club knows very well the area, and also to keep the safety and customer service, and don’t mix on the same spots the divers with the snorkeling group like others, we’ll try...

My husband and I booked an excursion with Zuma Tours 5 of the 7 days we were in Montezuma. Every excursion was great, the guides were awesome, very helpful and professional. We took the water taxi to and from Montezuma, zip lined, rented ATV's, snorkeled on a day trip to Tortuga Island and rented a shuttle from Jaco to Manuel... More

My wife and I were in Costa Rica in Feb 2012 and had booked the Tortuga Island tour before we arrived. Great tour, the guide Douglas was very friendly and helpful. We liked it so much we went back a second time a few days later, just to get back to Tortuga Island. We had Douglas the second time as... More
