Gio Tours - Day Tours

This tour starts when you leave the port of call and get into the Panamerican Highway. You get to the road to Monteverde. The descendants of the original Quakers that came here in the 50’s, decided to protect their paradise from massive tourism by not paving the roads that access the region. In a country and area where the pouring rains turn dust into mud in a blink, this defense worked for many years.

Glad we had Juan

The guide was excellent and explained that we would not do hanging bridges due to the lack of participation. The tour we finally received was excellent and Juan told us they would refund the portion we didn’t see. I would highly recommend your Tour with Juan.

Full day shore excursion into the Cloud Forest (with a delicious lunch) from Puntarenas

We booked this shore excursion with Gio Tours through Trip Advisor / Viator to coincide with our cruise ship's day in port, as we particularly wanted to see Monteverde's Cloud Forest and based upon the reviews on this site. Despite a slight change to the itinerary (more on which below), we had a very enjoyable day and Charlie (our guide) and Christian (our bus driver) were both excellent. We had no problems finding our guide (and the mini-bus/coach) at the end of the cruise pier (in Puntarenas)...read more

Swing with the monkeys

Juan is amazing guide. His knowledge and passion for his country and tourism may the experience a must do. The swinging bridges are a great place for one of a kind photos. We saw monkeys birds and even a tarantula

Response from ViatorJune 06, 2025

Dear thebudaks: Thank you very much for taking the time to write us a review! We are thrilled to hear that you had an excellent time watching monkeys, birds, and a tarantula and that Juan made this a rich experience for you. We will be sure to let them know. If you ever come back to Costa Rica again, don't hesitate to let us know. We would be pleased to show you every detail of this beautiful country! Best regards GioTours
