Wonderful experience!
This was a fantastic tour---we saw sloths, tropical birds and snakes! We also made our own coffee, empanadas and picked coffee beans! Lunch was great too with authentic Costa Rican chicken and rice. Christian was very knowledgeable and a great tour guide. A must do!

VIPs!
My family had an AMAZING adventure with Diego and "Juan Loco"! They made us feel like VIPs. They did not rush us at all. My boys were late meeting up with my husband and myself but they continued to emphasize "No Worries". We were given facts about the volcanos, the provinces, and the land. We were given an informative lesson and was even given a quiz! We saw sloths, snakes, toucans, and red-eyed frogs. One of the tour guides took some amazing pictures with his telescope and our phones. Our food was delicious. We had some Costa Rican punch that I had never had before and would travel just to get some more! The waterfall tour was also amazing. I had never done a private tour before. I had always done group tours. No more group tourd after this experience. We were made to feel like VIPs!!!

The best
Christian's tour company provided excellent service. Johnny and JC were great guides. We used Christian for Airport to hotel , to see an incredible waterfall, atvs, mud bath at the volcano and to see sloths and other animals. Do not hesitate to use Christian, you will save a lot of $$ vs what the hotels charge for non private tours!!

Wonderful sloth watching tour and waterfall swim.
A great tour to a local waterfall, and then sloth watching tour. Our driver and guide, Jerson, was great. It was a bit of a drive from where we were picked up—nearly 2 hours from the JW Marriott in Hacienda Pinilla—to the first stop, but he had a couple stops pre-planned for picking anything up at a market, and restroom breaks. The Llanos de Cortez waterfall is beautiful—you can swim in it if you like, and there are restrooms there for changing. After that, another 90 minutes to the rainforest sloth tour. There, a local guide takes you on about a one hour hike. We were fortunate to see sloths, many birds, frogs, and two types of tree vipers. After that, a delicious lunch at a local restaurant, 5 minutes from the sloth viewing. Then, for us anyway, a 3 hour ride home, but again, pre-planned stops if necessary. Also, the company called the day before to verify pick-up time and location, which was very much appreciated. Highly recommend this tour, and if we have the pleasure of returning to Costa Rica, we would definitely look to this company again.

Exceptional!!!
Christian and Alex were terrific. Very energetic and knowledgeable. Went the extra mile with taking pictures to bringing us water to wash the sand off our feet. The lunch provided was awesome facing the butterfly garden. Can’t say enough good things about the tour and this team!!!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tamarindo.
How much does Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall cost?
+
Prices start at $195 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tamarindo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall 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 Tamarindo is not rushed.
Is Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 68 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 18 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tamarindo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall?
+
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 Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall 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 Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall?
+
Around 6 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 Tamarindo 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 Tamarindo and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall 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 Tamarindo 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 Tamarindo?
+
On Outty we rank every Tamarindo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Surf Lesson in Tamarindo - Stand Up or Your Money Back!, Sunset Catamaran & Snorkeling Tour in Playa Flamingo, Fundive Catalina Islands (2 dives, only for certified divers). 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 Tamarindo?
+
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 Tamarindo?
+
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 Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall?
+
Included: Private transportation; Lunch; bilingual guide; and water bottle. Not included: tips. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 21 listed pickup locations in and around Tamarindo. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
What happens to Explore Rainforets Sloth Discover Spectacular Waterfall if the weather is bad?
