      Erin

      TravelerWritten January 2026

      Are these also excursions we can book with your company if we are not already on a tour? For example, if we are just in San Jose for 2 or 3 days not on a tour, may we book one or more of these excursions for the day for the experience without being on a tour?

    • Receptivo Aborigen ToursOperatorWritten January 2026

      Yes, these excursions can also be booked independently, even if you are not participating in one of our tours. If you will be in San José for 2 or 3 days, you may certainly book one or more of these day excursions with us.
