Braulio was a great guide!

This tour of San Jose was the best way to start my trip in Costa Rica. Braulio was very knowledgeable and passionate about all the info he shared. Highly recommended. Even after the tour was over, he went out of his way to make coffee brands/types recommendations!

Amazing tour in San José!

We did a free walking tour with Pablo and it was an amazing experience, he's really prepared and made the tour really funny and entertaining. I would really recommend it to anyone who'd like to know more about San José, Costa Rica and its culture!

San Jose Costa Rica tour with Pablo

A wonderful experience walking the streets, sights, special building together with commentary on Costa Rica people and culture. Pablo is a great guide and has a way of making the tour not only interesting but fun. Highly recommend this tour free but tips should be good.
