      it was an al day adventure. We took a small bus that took us through the city of Libera, and meandered our way past fields of sugar cane and crops of cantaloupe. We visited a house and given samples of traditional food, which we all had an opportunity to make our own tortilla. Later we would return for lunch. We went on a river cruise next. We were able so see such creatures as the American Crocodile, White faced and Howling monkeys, Various birds, and lizard in their natural habitat.When we finished the river cruise we went back to the house and were served a fantastic lunch. We boarded the bus, and started heading back. We stopped at a shop selling souvenirs, for those who wanted to bring something back. We then stopped at another, shop where they sold coffee. They had a machine that roasted the coffee and we learned about the process involved in making the different roasts. We also did a tour of the city and stopped at the oldest Catholic Church in the Country. It was made in the Adobe style, with some of the wall exposed so that you could actually see how it was made. We were also given time to go to a super market there, or wherever you wanted to go. within walking distance of a few blocks. We liked the excursion because this was a quick way to see some of the highlights of this beautiful country

      Two of us took this tour from the sales reps at the beach (Unique tours?)at the Occidental Grand Papagayo. We were picked up a 8am. It was a small group of 8. We stopped to see some howler monkeys on the way, an oxen cart transporting lava sand from a river bed to truck transports, we took the river boat at the National Park and saw birds, crocodiles and monkeys. The monkeys climbed onto the boat. We had a costa rican lunch, pottery demonstration and a coffee demonstration and back to our hotel around 2pm. Excellent tour. Highly recommended.

      Two couples (one retired the other almost retired) went in an air-conditioned van with Tamarindo Travel Transfer and Tours, guide Harold and driver Ronnie on what was one of our highlights (the other was our sunset cruise). We got an early start to beat the crowds and had a 90+ minute ride through the countryside, with informative discussions all the way on Costa Rica (schools, churches, agriculture, scenery, teak, sugar cane, fruit, etc.). The river was fantastic. We saw 10+ crocodiles and stopped and played with a colony of white faced monkeys climbing all over the boat (no feeding or touching if you're wise). There were also screecher monkeys, bats, different iguana species etc. The hour boat trip didn't go very far on the river but didn't have to. We followed with a good lunch at a local village, and stopped for a making pottery demo (no high pressure). Highly, highly recommend Harold and Tamarindo Travel.

      My husband and I took the Palo Verde river tour in late February 2015 and thoroughly enjoyed it. We hired Guancaste Viajes & tours to pick us up at the Westin. It was about 2 1/2 hours each way over lots of bumpy roads through sugar cane planations to get to this delightful and remote spot. We saw iguanas, lots of large crocodiles, white faced monkeys, and lots of birds including a scarlet Macaw. The operation seems well run and safe. As part of the tour, we had an excellent Costa Rican lunch at the tour headquarters. This was the highlight of our 8 days in Costa Rica because we saw so much scenery and animals.

      We originally booked a van tour to visit this national park, however when the guide arrived with a small car vs the promised van, we decided to venture here on our own. Let's just say it was an adventure. The rented GPS and the four wheel drive SUVs earned their keep. The GPS took us from Flamingo Bay through 2 - 1/2 hours of back country roads most of which happened to be gorgeous farm land growing sugar cane and rice. It was a little intimidating driving past the huge trucks transporting the cane to the processing plant...but well worth seeing. We made it to the park and the entry fee was $24 cash per couple... then we followed the trail a half hour until we came to a base camp which served as a biology school and visitor center. We arrived around 11 am, luckily, they were able to add us to the lunch served at noon for $14 per person and they were kind enough to call the boat company and they added us as well for $30 per person. We would have starved if we couldnt get the lunch as we didnt pack a lunch and there are no food options within an hours drive of the place. The lucky part is that they were in slow season and we got there at just the right time. I would not advise winging it like we did. .. We were just extremely lucky that it all worked out. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The school accepted credit cards which was also a huge blessing as many places only accept cash. I highly recommend renting a GPS and installing Google Earth on your phone as many roads do not exist on maps, and very few villages have signs to let you know where you are.
