Verny was an amazing guide. He is highly knowledgeable about all of the various plants in wildlife found in Costa Rica, not only at the park, but also along the trip. I would highly recommend Verny for anyone who’s looking to visit any of the various parks and wildlife sanctuaries in Costa Rica.

Went ALWAYS goes above and beyond even the highest expectations. He’s not only the consummate professional but also a lovely human being. Both my immediate family, extended family and friends have been using him for nearly 9 years. He always gives you the straight answer ( bad visibility for diving for example) even if it costs him a commission. You can’t do ANY better!

Verny is very caring and knowledgeable about all the experiences we had with him while in the Tamarindo area. He is a great communicator and very personable. The wealth of experience as a guide makes Verny stand out as he can maneuver around uncontrollable climate changes and unexpected client schedule changes. We would choose Verny again on our next trip.

We were so impressed with our experience in Costa Rica with Verny! He accommodated us to make the tour comfortable and suitable, as my father was 80 years old and has some trouble walking. We had an incredible time with Verny on the boat tour and pottery class. We saw crocodiles, monkeys, numerous birds and reptiles and Verny helped take some amazing photos taken by Verny. He is friendly, extremely knowledgeable and professional. He was always there to lend a hand, to help my father in and out of the car or boat, and was so considerate and kind. Verny really made our trip unforgettable. Highly recommend!

My girlfriends and I had the absolute BEST experience in Costa Rica thanks to our amazing guide, Verny! From start to finish, he went above and beyond to make sure our trip was unforgettable. He took us on so many incredible adventures—zip lining, horseback riding, hot springs, a thrilling water slide, and even a private, exclusive tour to a stunning waterfall.
What really stood out was Verny’s knowledge and passion for Costa Rica. He shared so much about the country, its history, and its natural beauty, which made every adventure even more meaningful. On top of that, he captured hundreds of photos for us during all of our activities, so we could just enjoy the moment without worrying about missing anything.
Verny truly made us feel safe, cared for, and like VIPs the entire time. If you’re planning a trip to Costa Rica and want unforgettable adventures with the BEST guide, look no further—ask for Verny!
