We have used Alex for several years. We use his services for airport transfer and adventure trips. His vans and cars are clean, safe and newer models, He is always early for pick up and flexible on times. He specializes in personalized adventures. Alex possesses a vast knowledge of his country. His casual conversation of the areas we drive through are fun and educational. We have learned a lot about the history, plants and animals of Costa Rica. The guy seems to have a talent for finding wildlife. We have had other members of his team drive us. Geno is a great associate. He also is a worthwhile guide and can spot animals in the cover of the trees. We have ridden with him so often he has brought his wife and son on occasion. Great people. I highly recommend you give them a try when you go to Costa Rica.

Disappearing act Alex is what I call him... referred us to coco bay tours for atv which false advertised the whole tour from seeing a waterfall, to scuba diving... once we returned and complained Alex decided to play where's Alex and sided with the locals on how they handled our false advertised tour... not to mention I could have jogged as fast as the tour traveled it was the worst... thanks for nothing Alex..

This tour is a complete scam!!! Alex made promise after promise that we would see and get to swim in a waterfall!!! Even reminded us several times, to bring swim gear for the waterfall. We never even saw a waterfall, didn’t know the waterfall was “dried up “, until after the tour was over. Initially Alex answered then, stopped answering calls! Our group of 12, was never reimbursed for the inconvenience! Would not recommend!!!!

Alex is simply the middle man between you & actual tour operators on site. I booked ATV waterfall with him for myself & 12 of my family members. We were supposed to have an ATV tour w/ waterfall. There was no attempt to visit a waterfall. When i asked the tour guides about the waterfall, he said that Alex lied to us. And that Alex knew that the waterfall had run dry. Alex refused to take my calls or do anything to try to rectify the situation. We spend $2000 USD with Alex and my group was very disappointed. I am a travel agent and i will NEVER book any of my clients for any of Alex's tours. Trash equipment booked through Coco Bay tours. ATVs kept stalling out. False advertising & very arrogant owners.

Great trip!! This excursion has everything you’re looking for… all in a 1 day event. Zip lining, horseback riding, and hot springs. We started our day early where we were met by Walter (our tour guide). We took an hour and a half drive to our destination. We started with the zip line, beginning with some breath taking views. Following this, we took on some horse riding. Led by Walter, we had moments to look at the scenery and animals. We had some opportunities to interact with local families with authentic Costa Rican food. To cap off the day, we had a steam and spa exfoliation with mud and springs. Throughout the entire day Walter was an incredible asset to our group. Provide an enormous amount of information about the trip, locals, wild-life, and amazing entertainment. If you can request a tour guide, we highly recommend Walter. This was our first time in Costa Rica and our first excursion. Walter ensured an amazing experience for us on our honeymoon. We are very thankful.

I went on a girls trip to Costa Rica for a friends 40th bday. We didn't see an excursion that had what we wanted to do which was zipline and water raft only so we messaged and they made it happen! Pablo was fantastic. So patient with all of us and really made us feel so safe. The white water rafting was fun, the guide Luis was hilarious. Half way through we went to a little waterfall and got to jump in the water there. We saw a few white face monkeys on the route and after had a delicious lunch. We then headed to the ziplining. We had 8 lines to do and we were in and out of there in no time. Next time we will book our hotel transportation through them too instead of through the hotel.

What a great day we had. Rosbin picked us up at the hotel and to our surprise told us that this was a private tour. He educated us during the drive on different things we were driving by and kept us laughing with jokes. He gave us the best order to do the combo in and helped get us moved through quickly so that we were waiting on the large bussed in groups. He has a great eye and pointed out tons of animals in the trees as we walked. He took pictures of us along the way and ensured we had a great day. I would definitely recommend Alex on the Beach for your tours! We will be using them again on our next trip here.

If you are in contact with Rosbin from sevensensecostarica he also works with Sergio for this mega tour and their other tours. If you don't want to drive all the way to liberia where Sergio is located Rosbin would be more than happy to guide you on the tour. He's located in playa de coco. Rosbin was a great tour guide took photos for us and really was knowledgeable of the area and everything we toured.

We did 2 tours with Alex on the Beach. We travelled as a couple on our own with our Guide which was Pablo Campos on both occasions. He was friendly, knowledgeable and fun to be with and introduced us to some traditional Costa Rican foods. The first tour was the all day Wildlife Tour with Pablo and David. We saw a baby sloth at very close range which was brilliant, a tapir, monkeys, frogs, birds, snakes. A brilliant experience followed by lunch and a boat trip down the Tenorio/Corobici Rivers topped off by a swim in the Llanos de Cortez waterfall. Unforgetable day. Our 2nd trip was to the Hanging Bridges in Heliconias. No wildlife but still memorable especially for me as I am not normally that good with heights. This was followed by ATVs which was a bit of fun. All in all , I would thoroughly recommend Alex on the Beach as a Tour Guide company and also Pablo as a guide, who was brilliant

AotB conducted two tours for us: 4 of us on the Mega Combo tour 6 of us on a 2 hour ATV tour We are 3 couple from the US, aged 65-75, active but not athletic. We visited Costa Rica and we selected tours intended to both entertain us and let us see a little of Costa Rica and experience it's natural beauty and culture. We arranged our tours with Sergio via email and made deposits via Pay Pal. He was wonderful answering our questions, and it was easy to reach him and get our tours booked. Our guide Pablo on the Mega Combo tour was excellent, we could not have been in better hands. He was a pleasure to spend a day with, and went above and beyond in making sure that we were safe, comfortable and did everything we set out to do. I cannot speak highly enough of him or the tour itself which I will review under Buena Vista. For the ATV tour, we booked a 2 hour Beach tour as described on the Alex otB website. We were excited about visiting 5 beaches, and also we were told we would start and end at their restaurant the Monkey Bar. I'm not sure what happened, but we had an ATV tour that went by dirt road through the jungle areas to one beach, Playa Zapotal, and then back to the starting point in Nuevo Colon. We were allowed about 20 minutes to swim and enjoy the beach which had a lovely view of some rock formations off shore, but it was not a beach that enticed any of us to swim. We are disappointed that we neither had an opportunity to go to the Monkey Bar or to see the 5 beaches which were of more interest to us than the land areas we rode through. It was however a fun day, and our guide Randall and his assistant were excellent about making sure we knew how to properly use the ATVs, were safe at all times and especially when in an area with other traffic, and pointed out some monkeys along the way. I would book with this company again if in the area, however I think I would ask for very firm detailed explanation about what I was going to see and do on the ATV ride or any tour that did not have a specific place to go (such as the Mega Combo tour which was going to a specific eco park).

Response via e-mail very prompt when wanting to book . Recently had to cancel upcoming trip to Costa Rica for family illness. Trying to get excursion deposit refund not as prompt. Have to wait until the end of the month of the planned excursion. Hope we see refund at all. Beware of this

We did the Buena Park Adventure Combo. Our guide Pablo was so professional and accommodating. He picked us up on time and made sure we accomplished everything there was to do at the park including zip lining, hot springs, horseback riding and water sliding. We even had plenty of vegetarian food for my parents. It was a jam packed day but we had so much fun. I would 100% recommend Alex on the Beach for their professionalism.

We were staying at the nearby Riu Palace, so walked down to the Monkey Bar and booked two tours with Alex, who was extremely helpful. The first was a river boat trip on the Tempisque River Palo Verde National Park. The amount of wildlife was amazing, and the boat crew extremely knowledgeable. During the two-hour trip we saw crocodiles, iguanas, monkeys, numerous birds, including herons, great egrets, and others that I couldn’t identify. After an excellent lunch, our brilliant driver, Favio, then took us north to a forest where we saw sloths, snakes, frogs, different varieties of banana plant, etc., again with a very knowledgeable guide. Following the tour, Favio dropped us off right at the hotel. The second tour that we booked was a sunset cruise. We didn’t particularly want to go on a sunset “party” booze cruise, so opted for a private boat tour. We were taken out by Carlos, and his brother, Moses. We saw dolphins, flying fish, coatis, the Monkey Face Island, a sea tunnel, and they stopped for my wife to do a bit of snorkelling. Carlos and Moses also helped me to catch my first ever Tuna! At sunset, the views were spectacular. Favio, Carlos and Moses were great guides. We will be booking with Alex on our return next year. Recommended.

I cannot recommend this group enough! We did 3 excursions over 3 days and they were amazing!! Sergio communicated extremely well with me. The tour guides were prompt, friendly, knowledgeable, and a lot of fun! These excursions made our trip so memorable.

The wildlife safari tour was fabulous. We felt safe in Pablo's care as he took us from the gate of our hotel to local shops, a river tour chock full of crocodiles, iguanas monkeys and birds, to a gorgeous waterfall, and finally to a preserve where we saw sloths, frogs and snakes. Pablo heard my daughter say how much she likes horchata and stopped at a little place with a similar delightful beverage. Would highly recommend and hope to do the trip again some day!
