Patience
Jason was friendly, kind, and extremely patient. I was injured and he took his time and accommodated my needs while also tending to my sisters. He got us through the tour and back to our hotel safely. He made us feel welcome 10/10 will recommend

Pura Vida! Three experiences!
First timers in Costa Rica and it has been wonderful. And it is all thanks to Eleven Adventure Tours C.R! We started with an airport transfer from Liberia to Planet Hollywood. Our guide was amazing educating us about the culture along the way. Lots of traffic so be prepared. But it was great with the private driver. We started our first full day with a private tour and it was well worth it! Our guide, John, was very knowledgeable and fun! From the moment he picked us up, we knew it would be a good day. We started the day by stopping at a fresh fruit stand (who doesn’t enjoy fruit and education in the morning! Amazing!) and then went on our way to learn about coffee and chocolate. We even got to make our own coffee and hot chocolate. We continued to rio Celeste, hot springs and a rain forest tour to see animals and sloths (we even got to see a baby one!). My favorite part was the authentic lunch. Steak and rice was amazing. We had such a great experience than we booked another day for a beach tour. Jason picked us up all smiles and gave us some local recommendations and we were excited to take them! We started with a quiet beach where the locals go and then continued to a few other beaches before reaching tamarindo for lunch. Along the way we had empanadas. Amazing. Yes my favorite parts always involved food! Over all, CR is safe and filled with wonderful people. Thank you to a beautiful country! And thank you to Eleven Tours for an amazing experience.

Best tour ever!!
I would like to give a LOUD shout out to Jeisen who made my Boyfriend and my trip soo spectacular! One of his drivers picked us up from the airport and drove us directly to the most amazing fruit stand where we tasted and purchased all of the delicious and non pesticide ridden fruit that was cut for us to bring to our hotel. We ate ALL of it back at our hotel. Jeisen scheduled an entire day for us a couple days later. Jeisen took us on a boat tour where we saw Cappuccino Monkeys and Howler Monkeys, crocodiles(both small and huge) exotic birds and Iguanas (large and small) We were able to use the clean bathrooms and were greeted with Water and Cucumber Water, fresh delicious fruit and Costa Rican Coffee before the boat tour. Then we went to the rainforest where we had the MOST delicious ceviche and fresh fruit smoothies as a starter and amazing lunches. Costa Rican Beer was a necessity and included. We met the family who owns this ECO GREEN 23 Acres, they were so gracious and kind. They took us on a tour of the rainforest where we saw Sloths (including a mother Sloth and her baby), snakes, bright green frogs with red eyes and feet. We crushed and drank fresh sugar cane and learned so much about the rainforest, it was amazing. At the end of the tour we went to a Coffee and Cacao Tour. We were able to grind our Coffee and Cacao and taste it all. We learned a lot about the process of harvesting, roasting and even ground all of the coffee and cacao beans ourselves. He was very gracious and wanted to take us to an authentic Costa Rican restaurant for dinner but we were still too full from the delicious lunch. This full day experience was the highlight of our trip!! The great thing about Jeisen is that he will tailor any and all types of tours for you. If you want to Zip-line, horseback ride on the beach or simply need to be driven to a specific location, he will make it happen!!!!

¡EL MEJOR TOUR DE LA HISTORIA!
Estuve aquí de viaje de cumpleaños con mis amigos; era la primera vez que todos visitábamos Costa Rica. Planeamos el viaje durante meses y aun así no habíamos encontrado una excursión para ver el volcán. El primer día nos recomendaron el tour de Jason. Lo contactamos e inmediatamente nos respondió. Estaba muy emocionado de mostrarnos su país. Durante el viaje, llegó a recogernos puntualmente y con mucha energía. Jesús y Jason nos brindaron mucha información sobre la historia y los paisajes de Costa Rica. ¡En cada momento del viaje nos sentimos muy bien atendidos! Jason incluso me sorprendió con un pastel de cumpleaños, lo cual aprecié muchísimo y demuestra el cuidado y la atención al detalle que pone en sus tours. Si van a Costa Rica, reserven con él; fue una de las mejores experiencias turísticas que he tenido. ————————————————————————————— THE BEST TOUR EVER! I was here on a birthday trip with my friends, it was all of our first times in Costa Rica. We planned the trip for months and we still could not find an excusion to see tbe volcano. On our first day here we were recommended jasons tour. We contacted him and immeditly got a response. He was do excited to show us his country. During our trip he arrived to pick us up on a timely fashion and with lots of energy. Jesus and Jason where both very informative about the history and views of Costa Rica. In every step of the trip we felt cared for! Jason even surprised me with a birthday cake, which I really appreciated and shows how much care and detail are put into his tours. If you are going to Costa Rica please book with him it was one of the best tour experiences I ever encountered.

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Transfers Hotel Riu Guanacaste - Planet Hollywood - Papagayo.: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Playa Flamingo.
How much does Transfers Hotel Riu Guanacaste - Planet Hollywood - Papagayo. cost?
+
Prices start at $175 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Playa Flamingo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Transfers Hotel Riu Guanacaste - Planet Hollywood - Papagayo. take?
+
Plan for about 0.6 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 Flamingo is not rushed.
Is Transfers Hotel Riu Guanacaste - Planet Hollywood - Papagayo. 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 16 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Playa Flamingo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Transfers Hotel Riu Guanacaste - Planet Hollywood - Papagayo.?
+
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 Transfers Hotel Riu Guanacaste - Planet Hollywood - Papagayo. suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Transfers Hotel Riu Guanacaste - Planet Hollywood - Papagayo.?
+
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 Playa Flamingo 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 Flamingo and add a light layer if any part of the 0.6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Transfers Hotel Riu Guanacaste - Planet Hollywood - Papagayo. 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 Flamingo 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 Flamingo?
+
On Outty we rank every Playa Flamingo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Flamingo, Guanacaste All Inclusive Catamaran Snorkel Adventure, Tropical Rainforest, Hanging Bridges And Jungle Sloths Sanctuary, Sunset Catamaran & Snorkeling Tour in Playa Flamingo. 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 Flamingo?
+
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 Flamingo?
+
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.
