Marco and his team go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and secure! We did multiple adventures from COCO beach tour, horseback riding, atv, and massages on the beach! Book all of your plans through Marco Polo. There very patient and give the best deals on your tours of Costa Rica. If you really want to get out and about in the city. Just contact Marco or ask anyone on the beach.we stayed in Riu Palace Everybody in Costa Rica knows this guy. We will be returning in July to experience more with him as we only stayed 3 nights. But he made it so memorable for our honeymoon that were planning the next trip already. Thanks again. Pura vida!!!!

I just came from Rio Celeste and I still can't believe what I saw. It was a great experience. The place is so beautiful and full of nature. We spend the night at Finca Ecológica Garza del Sol. It is an amazing place. The owners are local, so they know the area really well. My daughter wanted to see the sloths and Diego went to see if the sloths were close. He couldn't find them at their place, but he immediately contacted a friend and took us to another place to see the sloths! That was amazing and for sure NOT expected! However, we loved it! The food at the restaurant was really good! we are Costa Ricans, so we expect local food to taste like LOCAL food! that was they gave us! We loved it! The cabins are amazing! close to the river, so you sleep really good hearing the sound of the water. Everything is as you see it in the pictures. No bad surprises, only good surprises

I had a blast heading out to Rio Celeste. The tour starts at a Finca or private property with authentic Costa Rican breakfast- delicious I must add. Then the tour and driver takes you to the park to begin the tour and walk to Rio Celeste. My guide, Randal, was very informative. You can tell he knows a lot about nature which was great to have as a guide! The walk through the park was mesmerizing. It was my first tour and I couldn't stop saying "wow" the entire time. We left the Rio Celeste last and THAT blew my mind. The guide explained how and why it is Blue Celeste so it all made sense afterwards. It was just stunning to see if in front of your eyes. Beautiful blue! After the tour at the park, we went back to the Finca and ate lunch, provided there. Again, deliciously made. After lunch we had a small tour of the Finca and that was the end of the tour. It was an awesome tour, just as described. You can't pass up Rio Celeste and this tour does a great job!

I have been to Costa Rica many times, so we wanted something different than the tourist beach towns of Guanacaste. We drove our rental car out to the little village of Ortega in the middle of beautiful nowhere on good paved and unpaved roads... no need for 4x4. We were greeted with flavorful coffee, fresh mango juice and hot off the grill stone ground tortillas with queso frecso in the clean and humble Tico restaurant that serves as home base. Chris, our guide, was friendly knowledgeable, and fun to go out on the boat with. The boat ride itself is a quiet, pleasant trip. We returned to the restaurant for a superb farm to table lunch that was one of the best I've had in Costa Rica. We really enjoyed the entire experience... nothing flashy or exciting, just an authentic taste of the countryside, the river and the people. Loved it!

We just returned from Bijagua and our inner tubing adventure with Johser and Rio Celeste Nature, and I absolutely couldn’t wait to do this glowing review. Our family of 4 really likes adventure and nature and this inner tubing adventure was just perfect for us. Rio Celeste is gorgeous and to be floating along in an inner tube is fabulous. They have great equipment, life vests, helmets, facilities to change- and they even take pictures of your group (great pictures, may I add). Johser couldn’t have been nicer. They were working super hard to keep us safe and make it fun. They certainly take precautions in this Covid age. They clearly know the river so well and are delighted to share the fun with their guests. Our 10 year old is a dare devil and they let him jump into the river from cliff. The rapids were super fun and exciting (this isn’t just a floating on the slow river tour- but we just loved it). Being in the lovely blue water and floating through lush jungle environments is like a dream. The moment we finished the tour, the kids were asking when they could do it again. DO NOT MISS THIS TOUR! You will love it. It’s a wonderful family memory and experience that we will treasure.
