1 - Tortuguero - Arenal - Monteverde - Quepos

My Costa Rica vacation was perfect. Loved each hotel. All tours were fun. Saw so much wildlife it was unbelievable, and had great, enthusiastic and knowledgeable guides. Every transfer was smooth with the driver either being on time or a bit early. Amazingly, each driver was almost like a tour guide, pointing out unique and interesting facts and even stopping for photos, while driving well and safely. It is refreshing to meet people who have such a love of their country. Planning the trip on your website was fun and easy. Would definitely recommend to anyone. I did run into a couple of parties who also booked through your website and they were having a great experience, too.

I can say without a doubt that our trip was fantastic. The only thing I can complain about is that the monkeys weren`t running around all over the place as we had hoped, but that of course has nothing to do with your website. You all were great in securing our lodgings and transfers! All our hotels just seemed to get increasingly better as the trip progressed. Our guides and drivers were friendly and knowledgeable. And the website was easy to navigate. We have already recommended your site to someone we met on the trip! Thanks again for helping to make our stay memorable!

We had a great trip. Hotels were great, especially the Arenal Springs and the Parador. Only complaint might be lack of Internet access at some locations like Monteverde but we were in the jungle! Transfers were perfect. The included tours were only at Tortuguero but that was very nice.
Thanks!

This was the most relaxing and enjoyable vacation I had in a really long time. Everything that was organized through your website worked like a charm. The hotels I picked were good, although some of them could use a small upgrade (e.g. Trapp Family Lodge didn`t have warm water in the shower only in the sink, Arenal Paraiso had a non-functioning refrigerator as decorative item in the bedroom). But overall I had no bad surprises. It was nice to have someone meet me at the airport in San Jose and explain everything to me, including whom to call if any help is needed. I traveled by myself and I don`t speak Spanish, so having a contact name and number was very nice for me.
I would use your service again, and highly recommend it to others.

I`m sending this email to provide the feedback requested about our trip to Costa Rica. We were/are extremely pleased with EVERYTHING that was set up for us regarding our honeymoon trip. From fixing our flight confusion, to the amazing hospitality of your provider in Costa Rica, to the wonderful hotel accommodations, we could not have asked for better treatment. From the beginning of booking our trip we were interacting with a very friendly and helpful staff at your website and during our trip your provider in Costa Rica took care of us from the moment we got off the plane in San Jose (even calling us along the way to "check up" and make sure we were satisfied with our experience). I would highly recommend your website to friends who might be planning a trip to Costa Rica. Thank you again for making our vacation so easy and enjoyable!
