As soon as we finish with the instructions and safety directions we’ll kick off the day driving from San Antonio de Damas into an area of natural waterfalls and springs located in a magnificent rainforest, we will pass through some of the typical yet fascinating plantations in the region, rice, African palm, teakwood, and papayas; winding switchbacks and muddy streams of African palm orchard, part of a 135,000-acre farm that grows this palm fruit for the production of oil.

Great time
We had a great experience on the ATVs. Pickup was prompt and clearly communicated and we were well fed throughout the trip with great food. Also saw monkeys while on the ride!

Side by Side Fun
The ATV tour was a lot of fun. We drove a side by side for a family of 4 and no experience with ATVs. The tour guide was kind and mindful of when to stop for a nice photo. He did drive fast but he would make sure to wait for us if we got too far behind. It was a nice well rounded tour, including going through water which my boys loved. The waterfall part of the tour is a short hike from the restaurant where you will eat lunch. Make sure to bring water shoes because there are a lot of rocks at the waterfall. The food was nice and light to end the tour. Would definitely recommend.

An Unforgettable ATV Adventure!
We had an amazing ATV tour of 3 hours of adventure in Costa Rica! Everything was perfectly organized, with punctual pick-up and a smooth start to the adventure. Our guide - Guillermo - was exceptional—professional, friendly, and passionate about making sure everyone had an incredible experience. The tour itself was unique and full of excitement. We drove through beautiful landscapes on adventurous trails that made the experience both thrilling and authentic. It was much more than just an ATV ride—it felt like a real adventure! After the tour, we enjoyed a delicious lunch, which was the perfect way to end the day. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Costa Rica. If you're looking for an exciting, well-organized tour with outstanding guides, look no further. Highly recommended!

Why this scores 72
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Manuel Antonio ATV Off Road Rainforest & Waterfalls Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quepos.
How much does Manuel Antonio ATV Off Road Rainforest & Waterfalls Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $124 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Quepos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Manuel Antonio ATV Off Road Rainforest & Waterfalls Tour take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Quepos is not rushed.
Is Manuel Antonio ATV Off Road Rainforest & Waterfalls Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 72 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 167 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Quepos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Manuel Antonio ATV Off Road Rainforest & Waterfalls Tour?
+
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 Manuel Antonio ATV Off Road Rainforest & Waterfalls Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Manuel Antonio ATV Off Road Rainforest & Waterfalls Tour?
+
Around 58 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 Quepos 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 Quepos and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Manuel Antonio ATV Off Road Rainforest & Waterfalls Tour 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 Quepos 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 Quepos?
+
On Outty we rank every Quepos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Manuel Antonio Canopy Tour - Longest Twin Zip Line in Central America, Full Day Waterfall Adventure, Manuel Antonio Park Tour and its Amazing Wildlife and Beaches. 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 Quepos?
+
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 Quepos?
+
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.
