Frequently asked questions
Why do you only review six of the eight tours?
The Mistco Arenal Hanging Bridges tour and the Private Nature Discovery Day are less commonly booked. We cover all eight tours in the all-tours comparison.
Are these reviews independent?
Yes. We’re an independent guide, not a tour operator or booking agent. We earn a small affiliate commission at no extra cost to you if you book through our links, but that never changes which tours we recommend.
How do you choose which tours to review?
We focus on the most-booked, best-rated tours on GetYourGuide. Every tour here is rated 4.4 or higher and run by established, licensed operators with hundreds of verified reviews.
