Free walking tours in San José

Uns hat die Tour sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Juan hatte viele Informationen für uns und konnte auch mit geschichtlichen Infos beeindrucken und alle unsere Fragen beantworten. Es war genau richtig. Auf jeden Fall eine Empfehlung wert.

Jules is a great tour guide. Very professional and full of interesting trivia.

Jules was a great guy. The tour itself had a lot of fun facts but very little historical information. The tour was slow paced and the first half had almost no walking involved. The tour was supposed to be 3 hours and it turned to a 5.5 hour tour, there was a lack of consideration of people’s time. Yes, he did say“if you need to head out or if you’re hungry please feel free to leave” but anytime someone tried leaving he would kind of make it hard to leave by continuing the tour. Overall, it’s a slower paced walking tour with quirky fun facts.

Guía local conocedor de la historia de la ciudad y del país. Se adapta a las inquietudes del visitante, así como a sus necesidades

Amaral fue excelente y contó muchisimas historias interesantes que no se encuentran en un tour convencional

This was an excellent tour with Jules. We learned so much about the culture, the history and saw beautiful and interesting sites. Jules is a wealth of knowledge and is so kind and hospitable. It was the perfect introduction to Costa Rica on our first day there and Jules had fantastic recommendations for us on where to dine and excursions. We thoroughly enjoyed the restaurant he recommended for dinner and the hike he recommended for dsy 2. The trip would not have been the same without his input. Thank you Jules!

Our walking tour with Jules was outstanding! His deep knowledge of the city's history and culture truly brought the streets to life. I was particularly impressed by the fascinating stories and beautiful architecture of the National Theater that we explored. The tour was engaging, fun, and the Jules passion was infectious. It was a truly memorable experience, and I highly recommend this tour! - Virginia 🙂

Informative and interesting walk through historical and cultural areas of central San Jose

Amazing tour! Would do it again.

Amaral ha trabajado en ámbitos como el teatro y la interpretación y eso se nota. Es un walking tour muy ameno. ¡Lo recomiendo!

Jules is very genuine and prepare great refreshment (surprise)! He answers all kinds of questions! The trip is also very much vegetarian friendly.

Si. Fue excelente y fraternal.

Jules was amazing!!! very friendly, welcoming, and incredibly attentive to every detail. We learned so many interesting facts, and he even offered us drinks and snacks along the way. The places we visited were beautiful, and he gave us a real insight into Costa Rican culture. You can truly see the preparation and dedication he puts into his work. Highly recommended!

Jules was amazing. He has a wonderful way of explaining the history and getting everyone engaged. Wonderful experience. A must do walking tour. Plus he brought snacks!

Jules was fantastic! Even though the other participants didn’t show up, he continued the tour just for our family of three, which we really appreciated. We learned so many fascinating things, even details that some of our Costa Rican friends didn’t know! The pace of the tour was perfect, with enough time for breaks and refreshments. Jules was also incredibly thoughtful and prepared for the unpredictable weather, bringing umbrellas and even snacks. It felt like a truly personalized and enjoyable experience.

Maravilloso tour. Muy completo. Randall mostró pasión por su ciudad y, sin mirar la hora, hizo un tour cultural e interesante por las principales calles de San José. Desconocíamos que San José tuviera tanto que ver. Gracias Randall

Amaral resultó ser un excelente guía, nos aporto mucho información y aprendimos mucho sobre San José. Visitamos lugares variados como teatros, mercado, cafetería y chocolateria. Muchas gracias

A must do tour! Jules was very informative in so many aspects. He took us to see art and culture, food, history, crafts ad so much more. Highly recommended!

Great tour with a great guide. I would recommend it to everyone visiting San José. One of the most professional and knowledgeable guides I have ever seen

Thanks Jules for such a great tour. I was hoping to learn more about the Costa Rica's history and culture after visiting the provincial parks on the pacific coast; Jules fulfilled this! He has LOTS of information to take in, answers questions as he can and takes care of us making sure we are not too hot or dehydrated by finding shaded areas and even indoor seating for a break! Some nice surprises on the tour :).

Tour fabuloso, sorprendente y completo. El guía Amaral, insuperable!!! El mejor

Iva was amazing she was knowledgeable and passionate and professional. I didn’t feel the time going by and learnt a lot Highly recommend

It was awesome. This was my first experience with Guru. I’m sure it won’t be my last. Jules is awesome.

La experiencia con Amaral fue excelente de principio a fin. Explica la historia de forma clara, amena y con ese toque de humor que hace que las horas pasen volando. Se nota que conoce muy bien la ciudad y que disfruta transmitiendo su pasión por ella. Además, respondió a todas nuestras preguntas y dio recomendaciones muy útiles para seguir explorando por nuestra cuenta. Sin duda, un tour totalmente recomendable.

I have a great time with Jules. A lovely guy that took us around and showed us the highlights of San Jose and some hidden secrets. He was professional and he was well prepared for this tour.
