Had a horrible experience. Reading a lot of similar reviews on this place with similar experiences! Major red flags from the start. They took a 7,000 deposit for all the vehicles my friends and I rented . When we got back they tried extorting us and we felt very rushed and pressured! I would not recommend this place at all. It’s a big scam operation and not safe at all ! No horrible communication. BEWARE

BEWARE OF SCAMS HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!! WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!! They had lack of professionalism & did not provide helpful information and safety precautions.

AXR (AN EXTREME RIDER) Costa Rica Off Road LTDA I recently had a very disappointing and concerning experience with AXR (AN EXTREME RIDER), also known as Costa Rica Off Road LTDA. On September 26, 2024, my friends and I rented 7 Talons and one ATV, putting down a deposit of $7,000. From the start, there were major red flags. I was pressured to name all the drivers and sign on their behalf, which felt rushed and unprofessional. We received no safety advice, training, or information about the challenging paths we would be navigating. Unfortunately, one of my friends, who was a first-time driver, rolled one of the vehicles. While damages occurred, the management claimed the cost was exactly $7,000—an amount that felt extremely suspicious. They then offered a cash settlement of $5,000, which I refused because I believed the actual damages were around $3,000. I felt immense pressure and decided to leave it on my card, hoping to dispute the charges later. I would NEVER recommend this company or any of its affiliates. They provide no insurance, lack professionalism, and prioritize profit over customer safety. This operation feels like a complete scam. Save yourself the trouble and look elsewhere for an adventure in Costa Rica!

Booked the 3 hour with the waterfall on the buggie. Spent around 30 minutes at the waterfall, 30 minutes at this restaurant/bar at the top of a hill with a nice scenic view. I ordered a nice tequila sunrise and pina colata. The rest of the time driving. The guide offered to take a bunch of pictures and. Really fun tour went during rainy season and was super cool.

Our 2nd time with AXR. Got two side by sides and took off for a couple hours. Danny was our guide is just the best. He took us on a new trail that rocked. Our only regret is we should have gone longer.

AXR and our tour guide Pepe was the BEST PART of our Costa Rica tour. Pepe was genuine, personable, direct, transparent, and professional. He truly deserves a raise! We also did the horseback riding which was peaceful and healing. We appreciate AXR and one day hope to come back to Jaco for another tour!

Absolutely an awesome adventure in the 2 hour buggy ride. Our tour guide was the absolute best. Prepare to get wet and dirty lol. The stop at the bar/restaurant is a great touch. One thing to keep in mind that a hefty deposit is required.

ATV tour with Carlos as a guide was awesome. We took two quads as there were eight of us and some did not want to drive. The road was very scenic and we stopped several times to take photos. The waterfall was beautiful and the hike to see it was very well laid out and safe. Next stop was to jump from a small cliff. The water was very refreshing in both spots. The restaurant on the mountain was so good and probably one of my favorite meals while in Jaco. If you take this tour, make sure you ask for Carlos.

Very professional service and top notch equipment. I highly recommend this place. You can also rent and go out on your own instead of having a tour guide.

Fun time. It had rained all day, and it was a little muddy, but that made for even more fun in the jungle. Pepe did a great job. Stopped in a few of the small villages for a refreshment and chatted with the locals. Steve

WHAT A FREAKNG BLAST! We opted for the 3-hr. tour the through the forest and to the waterfall. Our tour consisted of 3 people: the guide, my husband and myself. I was quite surprised that they did not try to put us into a larger group. As such, the guide was very attentive to our needs and desires. Stops were as frequent as we wanted; the waterfall was an added delight, and the terrain ride thru fields and stream beds (wet and dry) was fantastic! When visiting the area, you should definitely make this a "MUST DO!" Our guide was wonderful, easy going and a pleasure to be with.

This is by far one of the best tours I’ve ever done. The experience was beyond amazing and incredibly fun but what really made it the best was our tour guide Gabriel! He went above and beyond in showing us the warmth that the people in Costa Rica show to their guests. He catered to our individual wants by going out of his way to get a coconut that my 8 year old son had been looking for. He also pointed out tucans, macaws and a sloth that we wouldn’t have been experienced to spot (my request) and for my husband and 15 year old stepson he allowed them to be more extreme. If you are in this are of Costa Rica do not hesitate for a second to book your tour with them and ask for Gabriel! I promise you will have the time of your life!!!!

Steven at the reception is a crook!!! He's apparently known for adding bogus "insurance related" costs for obscure fixes after your ride and skimming from the pot. I got charged for a scratch on the bottom of the ATV after an off roading adventure.....not sure how that works. When I said I wouldnt pay i was threatened with the law..Be careful when you go here. He's well known in the area for his schemes apparently.

Great experience! Newer equipment. Staff were great. Pack water, sunscreen and snacks for the ride. We had a 3 hour tour and stopped for a delicious meal on the hill top mountain before heading back. Try their homemade hot sauce!!!

Great 4 hour trip with vistas / waterfalls / off reading through a riverbed and a typical Costa Rican lunch . Gabriel was an excellent guide
