Hola, my name is Jorge. I will be more than glad to be your local guide in Costa Rica, this paradise that I am lucky to call home. I have designed comprehensive one-day tours in order to help you discover and enjoy the amazing nature, culture and gastronomy of my country. In 2006, I participated in a sustainable tourism program in Sweden. After that, I knew what I wanted to do for a living. I have been working as a tour guide since 2008 and I love it but it was not until 2017 when I joined ToursByLocals. I delivered tours for its clients for a year and then I became part of the company's staff where I worked for 2 and a half years. I truly enjoyed this experience as I met and worked with many fellow tour guides from all around the world, as well as sharing with everybody from the offices. . . however, the outdoors have called me back and here I am again, ready for more tours and adventures :) As a traveler myself, I can say the best journeys I've had abroad have been in the company of local people. To me, sharing traditions and going to places with them is the best way to see another country, that's why I like offering tours that cover the "must-see" places but also more authentic experiences in off-the-beaten-path spots. Hoping to take you on tour very soon, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. See you & Pura Vida! - Jorge - BA in Sustainable Tourism Management.

The treetops of centennial giant trees are under your feet, the perfect cone-shaped Arenal volcano on the horizon. It's green all around. We are crossing the suspension bridge to the other side of the rainforest, where a troop of howler monkeys enjoys snacking on a cecropia tree's tender leaves. An iridescent blue morpho butterfly bursts into the scene. This is the magic of the Rainforest and the adventure is just beginning. The second leg of our tour is a call that comes from the top of an extinct volcano’s crater where the impressive Catarata La Fortuna begins its journey. We will walk to the base of the waterfall and swim in the pristine river.
