The tour was nice, and our guide was very knowledgeable of the area. The views up to the volcano were breath taking and it was really neat to see the volcano. We even saw some fun wildlife while there. My only complaint was we had to switch vans during the tour and the driver we had that took us back to our hotels was not a very safe driver. Additionally, he forget to take one of the passengers to his hotel and then claimed he had already stopped there which he didn't. Then he dropped that passenger off at a corner and told him to walk the 4 blocks back to his hotel from there. I'm glad it wasn't me but I felt really bad for the guy. The driver was on his phone constantly and he drove very fast. I would have thought maybe this is just the Coast Rican way, but I did 2 other tours and this was not the case with the other drivers. We did enjoy the trip to the volcano but the driver kinda soured our experience at the end.
Great view of the volcano! Well worth the drive. Our pickup came 15 minutes early because traffic was light that morning. It was extremely windy and cold at the top of volcano, but since dry season had started we could see the lagoon.
