We booked an ATV and snorkeling tour with Carlos and it was so much fun. He picked us up at our hotel, brought us to his location and we rode semi-automatic ATVs about 45 minutes to a secluded beach (we were the only ones there). Provided us with snorkeling gear and we snorkeled for about 40 minutes. The fish and sites were stunning. We then rode back and he deposited us back at the hotel. Don’t plan on going anywhere after your ride unless you don’t mind being dirty. You get SUPER dusty on the ATVs.

Gabriel made this experience complete!!! My husband and i spent the entire day with him and while the zip lining, horse back riding, water slide, mud bath, and hot springs were all so so so so much fun... i think we enjoyed it most because of Gabriel’s hospitality. From the get-go i could see Gabriel was just so kind and genuine and you just immediately like him and want to be friends with him forever! He was trustworthy with our things, courteous, so incredibly knowledgeable and just went out of his way to make sure it was the best experience we could ever imagine. He picked us up on time, provided interesting information on Costa Rica, told us about all the great places to go and eat, and even let us stop and buy souvenirs for our family. I noticed we knew a lot more about each activity we did for the day more so than other groups because Gabriel always gave us a run down of everything and how it would work and what we would do. I really appreciated that! I think what i loved most was how kind he was helping us learn the language and just him opening up and sharing about his beautiful family. He has an amazing life story. I’m so incredibly happy for him and he deserves the world. The world needs more Gabriel’s that’s for sure! We highly recommend Gabriel as a custom tour guide. He will help create one of the best tours you will ever experience! We loved it so much we scheduled a different tour with him for 2 days later! Pura Vida!

I actually went to two tours (also did Rio Tempisque) with Native's Way. Our guide Gustavo was friendly and very informative, telling us about the plants birds, and of course about the wonderful volcano fumaroles, mud puddles, etc. Gustavo was a good driver, and accommodated our need to have occasional bathroom or snack stops. One suggestion to Native Way would be to be a little more clear about what to bring along; we did not need a change of clothes after the hot spring dip, as there were changing room. I would definitely book again with these folks next time I vacation in Tamarindo.
