Great tour!

Published on Mar, 2024

One of the best tours I have ever taken!! Ariel is an amazing guide! He answered all of our questions and provided a very informative narration while traveling to a location. While at each attraction, he pointed out many bird and tree species. Our driver, Angel, was the most engaged driver I have ever had. He pointed out points of interest and helped locate macaws and toucans. He found alternative route when a road was closed to show us a known macaw location. Highly recommend this tour!!

Friendly, attentive crew.

6 in 1 Limon Highlights. January 23,2023 Our Guide Luis (Luiz?) was outstanding! His knowledge of the Banana harvesting and everything else was very interesting and informative. Driver was great too. Tour was not rushed and we had about 20 people on a big bus so it was a nice size. Good variety/balance of things to see. Saw monkeys, sloths and snakes. Truely the highlights! Would highly recommend Greenway and this tour.
