    Are all transfers private or with a group? Can we upgrade the hotels? Can we add an extra night in Tortuguero National park?

    • Destiny Travel Costa RicaOperatorWritten October 2024

      Transfers are shared with some other clients.. however these are with small groups.. 2-7 passengers. Yes, hotels can be upgraded. Absolutely, you can add an extra night in Tortuguero or any other area if wanted.

      Kim

      TravelerWritten October 2024

      Can I please get a price for upgraded hotels (please list the names) and adding a night in Tortuguero? Also, the tours that are included is that small groups of 2-7, as well?

    • Destiny Travel Costa RicaOperatorWritten October 2024

      Can you advise the age of the children? So I can quote accordingly. Just for you to know, we do use superior class hotels in the regular tour.. so upgrades would be for 5* deluxe hotels.
