Very professional. The crew members went out of their way to help make a great experience for us. Issac and the crew bartender (I wish I could remember his name) were the best. Thanks to all at Calypso for a great first day in Costa Rica

619/5000 The operator was punctual. Transportation is a large bus, with air conditioning and plenty of space for everyone. The catamaran, although a bit old, is in good condition. The guides and the staff in general are very friendly. The beach is not the most beautiful on the planet. The planned entertainment activities are for youth and adults ... and the only bad thing is that there is no activity planned by the operator for young children * 7 years or less * take it into account if you are traveling with small children. I think that in general the experience was good. But I also believe that there are aspects that have a wide margin for improvement.

Got picked up at the hotel earlier than scheduled because they are trying to beat rush hour traffic.. Frank our tour guide was superb...the boat crew was super also, from the captain to the bar tender.. the beach was clean but the waves were unpredictable, it would be calm for a minute then becomes wild and strong the next, it will pull you out of the shore

The tour by Calypso was fantastic. It included a pick up from our hotel, two hour bus ride to and from the docs, breakfast and lunch as well as a banana boat ride and snorkeling. It's all inclusive except for the alcohol drinks which were very reasonable, a beer was only $3 USD. The price of $125 USD per person is well worth the adventure. The staff was great as well as the two hour boat ride to and from the Island. I give it a high recommendation. Enjoy.

I have to give this trip 5 stars. The staff was amazing starting off with Angie who picked us up and was very informative with the trip. Also she told us what to see in San Jose while we were staying in the city. Omar was an amazing host! Jose Angel was a great bartender and very nice. The rest of the staff was great just can’t remember all their names. It’s a very long trip if you’re coming from a San Jose so make sure you take snacks. But the food they serve is 5 stars too. From breakfast to a 4 course meal. The beach is beautiful and relaxing. Take Extra money to rent the blue seats on the beach very comfortable. The extra excursion that Calyoso offers are free and I regret not doing the banana boat it looked fun. I did do the snorkeling and that was fun and a great workout. If I ever come back to Costa Rica I will do this tour again. Last thing, we came during rainy season and it didn’t rain on us the whole time we traveled to the beach or while on the beach. It drizzled for like 2 minutes while on the boat coming back to main land. So don’t this scare you from booking.

Me and my friends had a fun day taking the catamaran with Calypso tours to Las Tortugas island. Despite leaving a little later due to technical issues, we got out on the water and had a great time snorkeling, riding the banana boat, and overall just relaxing on the beach. The food was excellent too!

Amazing outing! every detail was very well thought out. Friendly and thoughtful staff, comfortable surroundings, tasty food and perfect fruit snacks. The island was beautiful and full of animals running around. My son especially enjoyed the pig who is such a big beggar that it was waiting for the boat to come in and knew what time we would be eating. I would go on this excursion again in a heartbeat. They kept us moving the whole time so we stole some time to hang out on the hammocks.
