    It was a fantastic experience! We saw some of the most beautiful places! It was so nice to just relax and be shuffled from one beautiful place to another! Bernie our tour guide is a fantastic man! He never stops smiling!

    This trip was the honeymoon for my partner and I that got put off for 2 years because of Covid. Waiting was hard but made it so much sweeter when we finally got to go on our trip. I was a little apprehensive about a group tour but we had so many opportunities to be with each other and make new friends along the way that I wouldn't trade it for anything! Costa Rica is absolutely stunning and we are so lucky to have had the most amazing CEO to guide us!

    It was an emotional adventure. I was challenged physically, emotionally, and mentally. Despite our ups and downs, I would not change a thing. It was a journey of self-discovery, of learning about the world, and meeting people you never would have met otherwise. I am so grateful for this opportunity and want to keep the pura vida lifestyle in my heart and my everyday life.

    The white water rafting was amazing and the waterfall at the end was a nice touch from the guide.

    Marina was a wonderful guide, so knowledgeable and friendly. She always had great suggestions for each location. I was a little disappointed that the cost of the tour didn’t really include anything beyond transportation and lodging, though I did know that going in. All activities are extra, which definitely drives the cost of the trip higher. It’s a beautiful country and I’m glad I went, but it’s definitely an expensive place to visit!

    We received a good amount of free time to plan our own activities but there were a lot of opportunities to eat dinner with our group and go out after we ate together in the evening. The accomodations were hostels but they were nice hostels! I love my time spent in Costa Rica! Our guide was really great too.
