Free walking tours in San José

Die Führung von Juan Miguel ist ein Highlight! Er ist freundlich, gebildet und entspannt. Auf individuelle Fragen von uns zur Geschichte, Politik, Wirtschaft und Kultur des Landes kann er sehr interessante Aspekte aufzeigen. Wir haben uns mit ihm sehr wohl gefühlt und können ihn nur empfehlen.

Meine Mutter und ich waren begeistert von Juans Tour und empfehlen sie jedem, der Zeit in San José hat! Ohne Juan hätten wir die Stadt niemals so entdeckt und so viele interessante Informationen bekommen. Vielen lieben Dank für den schönen Tag!

Es war eine fantastische und sehr interessante Tour. Juan ist ein äußerst erfahrener Guide. Hat echt Spaß gemacht . Danke Juan und viele Grüße.

Sehr gute Stadtführung, empfehlenswert.

Juan spricht perfektes Deutsch und ist professioneller Reiseleiter. Er hat mir neben der Geschichte auch andere tolle Sachen gezeigt. Zum Beispiel in einem Park kleine mini Bienen (Mariola-Biene). Mein Highlight der Tour war der Zentral Markt. Ich konnte durch Juan viel über Land und Leute erfahren. Die Kommunikation mit Juan war super herzlich und unkompliziert. Ein super Start für eine Reise in Costa Rica. Ich empfehle die Tour auf jeden Fall weiter! Vielen herzlichen Dank für die tolle Zeit und vielen Informationen!

Sehr guter Guide! Hervorragendes Deutsch und es gab sehr viele Tipps innerhalb San José, als auch für Costa Rica insgesamt. Ein sehr guter Einstieg und eine solide insbesondere geschichtliche Grundlage für eine Reise durch das demokratisches Costa Rica !

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.

I had a fantastic experience on the walking tour in San José, Costa Rica with Jules as our guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about sharing the history and culture of the city. Jules brought the streets of San José to life with fascinating stories, local insights, and great recommendations for food and places to visit. The tour was the perfect mix of history, culture, and fun, and he made everyone in the group feel welcome and involved. You can tell he truly enjoys what he does and takes pride in showing visitors the real San José beyond the typical tourist spots. It was a great way to start exploring the capital and learn more about Costa Rica’s culture and history. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you have the chance to do it with Jules!

Pablo was a great guide. He communicated well before the tour and took account of my requests. He introduced us to locals along the way; he was very friendly and informative. The tour covered things like chocolate tasting, trying sweet empeñados, guanabana juice, information about stalls within the market and lots of local snippets of information about buildings and places of interest.

Julio's information was very interesting . I think he wanted to develop a love for San Jose and all of Costa Rica. He was successful.

One of the best walking tours we had. Jules really showed us different parts of the city and explained things about Costa Rican culture, traditions and food. And had a Picknick in the park prepared. Definitely recommend!

Good introduktion to areas outsider the common path

Jules is a great guide that enjoys sharing San Jose and the culture of Costa Rica. He goes the extra mile making sure everyone is comfortable and engaged.

Jules provided an in-depth overview and historical account of Costa Rica and mostly San Jose. He has a well organized routine that provided snack breaks and amazing highlights of the city. We enjoyed the tour and education he calls “Fun Facts”. Definitely recommend his tour. 👍

We had an excellent tour with Jules, approx. 4 h walk with history and culture information to Costa Rica and San Jose, a lot of practical tipps and to top spots in San Jose. A perfect tour!

Randall nos contó sobre la historia y actualidad política de Costa Rica, mientras caminábamos por lugares icónicos de San José. Probamos además frutas exóticas y vimos algunas ardillas. Muy recomendable.

Excellent introduction to San Jose, Costa Rica! Jules made us feel like we were walking with a local friend abd he was prepared with lots of food for picnic and bought us fresh fruit juice in local grocery stores! The pace was perfect, and he always made sure we were in the shade while explaining the significance of the buildings. I really appreciated the insider tips on where to go next. Don't forget to wear comfortable shoes and tip your guru—they truly earn it!

We had a very nice walk through San José. Jules showed us that the city is worth to be visited.

Could not have been any better. Great way to start your trip.

Jules does an exceptional job at guiding you through San Jose Costa Rica. This is such an informative perspective on the area, not only historical but local. Things to do and see here and places to see across the country. He doesn’t worry about how much time he spends with you and he makes sure you are set up for a successful Pura Vida Holiday. Make sure you take this tour in as early as possible in your travels and reward him for his exceptional level of effort, Pura Vida Jules!

Muy ameno y agradable

A great way to see the highlights of the City with local food & beverage sampling, including a picnic in the park 😋

Tour gave a good overview of the downtown core, Costa Rica history

Great San Jose tour. Our guide was quite good with giving us many facts and interesting information on San Jose. He was very knowledgeable and explained in detail the history of San Jose. Loved his presentation and kept the tour interesting!

Jules spoke excellent English and explained to us a lot about Costa Rican culture and facts. He loved trivia to engage us which was fun. The 3.5 hours passed in no time. We even had a small picknick in a park. That never had happened on a Guru walk. We appreciated also that the tour was small. We were only 7.
