Beautiful day for a boat trip. Bay Island Cruises delivered what was promised.

Published on Feb, 2025

After I booked this trip, I started reading a lot of negative reviews. But I still stayed with them and never regretted it. They picked us up at our hotel as promised in a large air conditioned bus. Half hour into trip we picked up another group from a smaller van. But, no issues since lots of room on our bus. Roy our guide thoroughly explained all details of trip. Everyone got a bag breakfast, ham sandwich, cookies, apple and juice as advertised. It was a long drive, therefore no time to stop. The catamaran was at dock when we got there. After we started our 2 hour boat ride, they started serving watermelon and pineapple along with ceviche, soft drinks and alcohol who wanted to buy it. Once on the island we relaxed for a bit had a good swim and then had a nice lunch at noon, they served sangria and Iced Tea. After lunch we paid for the optional nature walk. Word of warning, the path is very steep and uneven. Wear good shoes. No beach sandals or flip flops. At 3:30 pm we reboarded the boat and starred our 2,hour ride. Again they served fresh fruit, banana bread, coffee, soft drinks and alcohol who wanted. Once we hit the dock, we started our 3 hour ride back to our hotel. Traffic was very busy for a Sunday night. It is what it is. In conclusion we got was promised. I would recommend this trip, but expect a long day if you are being picked up in Sam Jose.

Beach Getaway

Published on Feb, 2025

Tortuga Island was a wonderful experience and the perfect day getaway. You get the best of both worlds—fun activities plus free time to do as you please, whether that’s playing volleyball, sunbathing, or just relaxing. The real highlight of the trip, though, was our guide, Roy. He was simply the best—always checking in on us, answering any and all questions with patience, and showing true dedication to his job. His commitment and enthusiasm made the experience even better. Overall, I’d highly recommend visiting, and if you get Roy as your guide, you’re in great hands!

The Tortuga Island tour was an unforgettable experience! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized, and the scenery was absolutely breathtaking. A huge shoutout to Eric, our tour guide, who was nothing short of phenomenal! His energy, knowledge, and enthusiasm made the day even more enjoyable. From the boat ride to the island to the food and the relaxing atmosphere, every part of the tour was amazing. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a perfect day of fun and relaxation. Thank you for an incredible day!
