This tour was well organised and really enjoyable. From being met at the airport, pre passport control with advice with what questions we will need to answer which was very helpful after 17 hours travelling. The hotels were top quality, all my rooms were massive, breakfasts good and the pool clean and welcoming. The tours were well managed with great guides, lots included and lots to see. Highly recommend this for anyone without too much time that wants to see to amazing regions of Costa Rica.Show more

The travel agency is really helpful. They did answer all our questions. They are knowledgeable about what are the best places to see in the country. They helped us to plan an extra night and all the excursions went as planned. Good hotels and choices of activities. We definitely recommend this travel agency to help you out with your stay in Costa Rica. I would suggest to plan your trip with them. You should not hesitate to buy this tour in Costa Rica.

The tour was good overall, the pick up at the airport and transport to the hotel was seemless. The hotel in San Jose was OK but nothing special tucked in a complex with a Holiday Inn and a Denny’s. It was in need of updating. The guide and driver (Harold) for the trip to Altea, ox cart and hot springs was very knowledgeable and excellent. The itinerary was a bit packed and getting back at 22:00 with a 6 a.m start was a bit gruesome. The trip to Tortugero national park was long and we shared with many people on a longer tour so we didn’t get their itinerary. The hotel was fine, though the buffet style food was not very good or varied. The company seemed to subcontract all items offered.Show more
