Reviews: San Jose: Bites and Sights Walking Food Tour including Markets
Guest User2024-08-23
This was a great way to try local and seasonal fruits and ice cream while visiting the markets. Our guide Oscar was very informative and kept the pace casual. I really enjoyed the time we spent at Mr. Sloth Cafe trying and making the different foods, then the demonstration by Eric of the coffee making process.
Reviews: Day Trip from San Jose to Irazu Volcano National Park, Cartago City and Orosi Valley

We really enjoyed our tour, walking the playa negra at Irazú was a highlight! The weather is unpredictable so bring a rain jacket/waterproof clothing— it started misty and it cleared up for a bit so we could see the craters. Both experiences were other worldly. The church and botanical gardens were beautiful and lunch was delicious. We did not go to the restaurant on the booking, but likely it was closed because of New Year’s Day. The food was delicious though, and we got to go to a local store, Cholitatica, next door. On the way back to the hotels, our guide stopped for one last view of the Orosi Valley, it was incredible. Our guide was fun, knowledgeable, and the small group setting was ideal. Highly recommend!
Reviews: Poas Volcano National Park Half Day tour from San Jose
Guest User2025-11-17
I really enjoyed the experience! Our guide Alexandro and our driver David were professional and friendly. The tour was well organised, it was a perfect mixture of waking in the beautiful nature and exploring other short stops like the coffee plantation or the strawberry shop. The breakfast included in the tour was really nice as well, we could choose from different options and try traditional food from Costa Rica. During the trip I felt safe and taken well care of. Our guide answered all our questions and I learned a lot from him about the nature and also culture of Costa Rica. As a solo traveller it was really nice for me to talk to the other members of our group and have fun during the day. I really recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for a nice and easy half day tour from San Jose.
Reviews: From San José: Full day Manuel Antonio National Park

The place is very beautiful and the food is delicious. The tour is very good, but I would have liked the guide to provide more information about the country or the location during the transfer and at the site. It also would have been helpful if they had other pick-up points in San José, as they only pick up from about four hotels.
