lolabarola Posted August 21, 2019 #1 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Hi we’re on a cruise with Princess, arriving at Puntarenas on 9 November. The most popular tour on tripadvisor seems to be to Isla Tortuga, 90 mins from Puntarenas by catamaran and 5 hours ashore. It’s an appealing alternative to the rainforest tours etc which entail quite long periods on a coach and are often reviewed as disappointing - over touristy, little wildlife seen etc The island trip isn’t offered as a ship excursion; maybe there’s a good reason for that! Has anyone been on the tour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone been on the tour? Did you do this tour? I, too, can't find any reviews on cruise critic concerning doing this excursion from a stop in Costa Rica (versus being there and not having to worry about boarding a ship) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarolGS Posted January 16 #5 Share Posted January 16 I went a few years ago. The boat ride over was very pleasant. We saw a few dolphins on the way there and a lovely sunset on the way back. The beach is pretty. Some people were snorkling but I did not join them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
