Wonderful tour operators
Gilberto and Gaby with GandG Travel helped make our trip to Costa Rica outstanding. 🇨🇷🐒🦥 We used their service for both of our airport and hotel transfers from Liberia Airport to Azura Beach Resort. They were professional, prompt and on time. We also used GandG Travel to take us on Palo Verde boat Safari and on a mountain jungle tour to Bijagua and Rio Celeste. Gilberto speaks English very well and is easy to talk to. He took his time to show us snakes, monkeys, sloths and other flora and wildlife. He is patient, as well as extremely proud and knowledgeable about all things Costa Rica. Gilberto took lots of photos of our tours and later shared them with us. We highly recommend Gilberto and Gaby. Thank you so much to both of you for all you did to help make our time in Costa Rica the trip of a lifetime. We will be carrying our vacation memories with us always! 🦥🐒💙
Response from the operator: Hola Jeremy and Sabrina, Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! Reading your review truly made our day. It means the world to us that we could help make your trip to Costa Rica so outstanding. We had such a wonderful time with you both, whether it was the transfers or exploring the jungle and river. Getting to share the beauty of our country—from the wildlife to the landscape—is what we love most, and it was a joy to do it with you. It's amazing to know that you'll be carrying these memories with you. We were so happy to have you here and we hope to welcome you back again someday for more adventures. Pura vida! Gilberto and Gaby

Wonderful Tour with G&G Travel!
I recently joined a tour with G&G Travel and it was one of the highlights of my trip to Guanacaste! Gilberto, our driver, was excellent and made the journey very comfortable, while Gaby, our guide, was amazing – so friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about Costa Rica. We saw sloths in their natural habitat, visited a beautiful waterfall, and enjoyed an authentic coffee experience. Everything was well organized and at a perfect pace, never rushed. I highly recommend G&G Travel if you are looking for a professional, friendly, and unforgettable experience in Guanacaste.
Response from the operator: Hola Ida, Thank you so much for your amazing review! We were so excited to read how much you enjoyed your tour with us. Knowing that we were a highlight of your trip to Guanacaste is the best reward. It makes us so happy that you had such a memorable experience, seeing the sloths, the waterfall, and enjoying some authentic coffee. We love sharing the beauty and culture of Costa Rica, and it's a pleasure to do it with people like you. We hope you come visit us again soon! Pura Vida! Gilberto and Gaby

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cataract and Lazy Coffee and Chocolate Experience in Costa Rica: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Playa Hermosa.
How much does Cataract and Lazy Coffee and Chocolate Experience in Costa Rica cost?
+
Prices start at $170 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Playa Hermosa usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Cataract and Lazy Coffee and Chocolate Experience in Costa Rica take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Playa Hermosa is not rushed.
Is Cataract and Lazy Coffee and Chocolate Experience in Costa Rica worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Playa Hermosa, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cataract and Lazy Coffee and Chocolate Experience in Costa Rica?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Cataract and Lazy Coffee and Chocolate Experience in Costa Rica suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Cataract and Lazy Coffee and Chocolate Experience in Costa Rica?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Playa Hermosa can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Playa Hermosa and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cataract and Lazy Coffee and Chocolate Experience in Costa Rica start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Playa Hermosa within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Playa Hermosa?
+
On Outty we rank every Playa Hermosa experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include La Leona waterfall adventure hike half day, White Water River Rafting Class III-IV from La Fortuna-Arenal, Guachipelin Zipline, River Tubing, Horseback Ride, Hot springs & Lunch Combo. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Playa Hermosa?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Playa Hermosa?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Cataract and Lazy Coffee and Chocolate Experience in Costa Rica?

Does Cataract and Lazy Coffee and Chocolate Experience in Costa Rica include hotel pickup?
