We had an awesome time with this company!!! The guide (Alex) was bi-lingual and super helpful. He would dive down and pick up sea creatures for us to see and touch. We were provided some awesome pictures of our kayaking on CD. When we returned home it seemed the photos didn't read on the CD and they emailed them to... More

While in Sámara, we utilized the services of the Sámara Adventure Company to book two tours...horseback riding and sea kayaking/snorkeling. What a fantastic experience we had and the customer service it top notch. Would definitely use them again the next time we are in the area.

Samara Adventure Company was the best place to book all of our tours, hotels, and transfers. David and Lesdy were extremely knowledgable, helpful, and friendly. They made it so easy for us. We booked everything from surfing and paddle boarding on Playa Samara, to zip lining in Monte Verde, and horse back riding in Arenal. Every adventure was enjoyable and... More

We thoroughly enjoyed the river wildlife & birding kayak trip. My friend and I were picked up at our villa and driven to the river, with all the equipment provided. Roberto was a wonderful guide - extremely knowledgable about the river ecosystem, as well as current Costa Rican environmental issues, and pointed out a wide variety of birds and iguanas.... More

We did two tours with this company and had great service each time. We did the Bird and Wildlife River Kayak tour which we LOVED. A highlight of the trip, with Roberto our guide. He loved finding birds for us to see as we paddled easily up the river to the beach. Took a break at a little beach for... More

We went for an afternoon of kayaking and snorkelling with our guide Alex out to the island in the bay, what a trip it was too. The kayaking was nice and calm as the bay is well protected and we saw a lot of wildlife whilst snorkelling off the island. Alex even brought up a puffer fish all inflated to... More

First of all the staff was amazing. They were kind and this was located directly next to my hotel and the owners were kind enough to let me check my email on my birthday. I had prebooked a stand-up paddle boarding adventure and a sea kayak to Chora Island. Don't expect much on the snorkeling. Costa Rica has poor visibility.... More

My husband and I loved our kayak trip out to Isla Chora just off Playa Samara. It was an easy trip to the island and we were the only people out there, very peaceful. We read reviews that snorkeling in Costa Rica isn't too great but we loved being in the water and saw much more than we thought we... More
