I had an amazing UTV excursion with Darwin! The adventure was thrilling, the scenery was breathtaking, and Darwin's expertise made the trip unforgettable. Highly recommend it!

Darwin & Martin were fantastic guides! There were 8 of us and we all had a great time. We told them we’d love to see some monkeys in the wild and although it wasn’t the best time of year for that they said they would try to make it happen. And they did!! So fun to see a family of howler monkeys in their natural environment. Darwin even got them howling for us. We also saw many beautiful beaches!! Lunch was delicious.

Since it was a combination of the ATV and jet ski tour, I gave it 2 stars. Martin (ATV) was great and if it was just the ATV tour I would’ve given it 4 stars. The issues were with the jet ski ride. It’s NOT a part of the company (Flamingo Adventures) and it was just a jet ski vendor they talked to beforehand on the beach. I got charged 275 on my card when I booked on the 475 bill and I thought it was just like putting an advance but it was actually because we had to pay the jet ski person in cash. Which was okay even though a little heads up would’ve been fine because paying in card required a 13% fee of some sort. The instructor was not fully clear on the jet ski ride. We let the “guide” know that it was our first jet ski experience and both of us are non swimmers and because of the mediocre instructions we decided to take one jet ski instead of two (but had to pay the full $200 that we thought was for two jet skis). The guide was terrible as he drove really fast on super choppy waters which I already had a hard time adjusting to and he stayed wayyy ahead of us to the point if something happened and one of us fell in to the choppy water there was no way he could’ve made it to us to help us out. My wife got really scared because of the lack of safety in the jet ski tour and our jet ski had the warning light beeping the entire way through that added to our anxiety. Please do NOT book any jet ski related stuff through flamingo adventures. Also none of the staff other than the reception person spoke English which is understandable in a Spanish speaking country but the booking mentions English speaking tour guides. All in all, we did not have a good time and the jet ski part of the tour made us fear for our lives.
TLDR the ATV tour was alright and if you are a seasoned jet ski driver I guess you might be able to enjoy it but heads up the guide is no help it’s basically a take care of yourself completely type situation, the path they take is super choppy and risky and the jet ski equipment is in horrible condition.

We didn’t actually take a tour but went to book it and as the payment needed to be validated ( thankfully) by my debit card company when I looked at the charge $119 x 4 people - it amounted to $143 per person a 20% uplift so he said for credit card charge!!! Which planet did he think we were on ? Or should I say ‘did he think we just got off the banana boat’ ( one of Costa Rica’s main exports !!)This trip in the first place was way over priced - we subsequently booked ourselves for $79 - a saving of $40 each ( however we drove ourselves) or $60 if you include the scamming ammount! DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE - this is illegal & dishonest . Maybe their ‘core’ audience doesn’t care - but as honourable Europeans we care a lot!!!

The entire family had a blast on this cliff jumping tour! First, the ATVs provided a fun experience with beautiful views. We then took a break at a beach bar. From there we jumped in a boat to a beautiful ocean cliff where the entire family got to jump several times. Our tour guide was professional and fun, and they also provided transportation to and from our hotel in Tamarindo. Highly recommend Flamingo Adventures when you visit the Guanacaste area of Costa Rica.

It was a good mix of hilltops, beaches, off-road trails and dirt road running. Some great views. Could be a couple more quick stops along the way for photos

We booked a trip for 9 people and I got a confirmation email. Couple hours later got a message that the reservation was canceled for the next day.. called to check and was given three different excuses why the reservation was cancelled, ranging from we can replace reservations in a second to the boat mechanic didn't approve the boat...

What is the weight limit per person?

Not sure on the ATV or Zipline. They provided a 500 cc unit for me (235) and my girlfriend (135) to ride together.
I saw some large people on the ziplines, maybe around 300 lbs.

is there anywhere close to playa flamingo where one can kite surf?

Hello,
Unfortunately there are no places that offer kite surfing in Flamingo Beach. The closest places would be about a 2 hour drive.

How is the weather near playa flamingo the first/second week of November? Worried about it raining a lot and not being able to enjoy the country all day. Considering April instead?

I have never traveled to Costa Rica in November, although I expect that the weather is divine. October is considered part of their rainy season and we had immaculate weather. The land is very green, and makes for stunning photos. I heard the summer months are hot and dry. Like any tropical place, expect it to rain at least once a day for an hour or so. You will not be disappointed. Pura Vida!!

I heard a 12 year old girl was killed using an ATV while on a guided tour from Flamingo. The went off a 260 ft. cliff, after failing to negotiate a turn. Are the roads/trails now equipped with guardrails, are the ATVs speed controlled? What changes have been made to ensure the safety of travelers who are not as familiar with this equipment, but would like to ride safely?

I do not recommend taking a child on the ATV tour. Although I did not go on the ATV tour I do know that while I was down there at least two different occasions ATVs were flipped over and the rider was thrown off. The terrain is steep and rocky and rutted. There are other tours more suitable.

It depends on location. If you look at their website, it gives locations (cities) where if you need pick up/dropoff, it is part of the package (i.e., included in price). There were also some cities named, a bit farther out, that if you needed pick up, it would be for some fee (I cant remember...maybe $15 US per person)? Maybe look at the site or email them (they usually answer by email fast).
