- RJRichard· May 17th, 2024My wife and I booked the 10 day tour. We upgraded the rooms one level - I wanted to be sure to have air conditioning. Our hotels were great. Our transfers were all on time. There were always other people on the transfers and we often had great conversations as we traveled. The tours we booked were all interesting and informative. I highly recommend this trip.Show more
Destination Services Costa Rica commented on this reviewGood Day Dear Richard I'm very glad to know you have enjoyed your trip with us. Thanks for your comments. Please let us know when you have the chance to come back to Costa Rica to assist you. Kind regards, Karla Alpízar Destination Services Costa... Show moreTrip date: April 2024 - JCJo· May 2nd, 2024There is little confusion co-ordination or organizing by Tour Radar. They may put together the brochure you see on the internet but they have no direct knowledge of the tour. You can ask questions of them but they just pass it on to a tour company in the location and wastes time.Show moreTrip date: April 2024
Ravi· April 25th, 2024The customer experience with Tour Radar was excellent all the way!Destination Services Costa Rica commented on this reviewHi Ravi It was a great pleasure to assist you during your trip! Thanks for your comments. Regards, Karla Alpízar Destination Services Costa Rica's TeamTrip date: April 2024- SRSara· April 24th, 2024The trip was absolutely amazing and a beautiful country! The booking was great and filled with a good amount of activities at each location, but also was able to have some free time in each location to visit the town, hang out at the pool or ocean, or just relax if needed. All transportation pickups were relatively smooth and on time. The hotel in Monteverde was a little disappointing compared to all the other hotels.Show moreDestination Services Costa Rica commented on this reviewGood Day Dear Sara Thanks for your comments, we are definitely taking in count your feedback to keep improving our services.

- Janey· April 17th, 2024This was incredible! It was self guided so tour radar set up everything for travel excursions and accommodations. There wasn't a group or a guide. I often solo travel so this was perfect for me and my friend. We had a blast! I really enjoyed every part of this trip.Show moreDestination Services Costa Rica commented on this reviewThank you for your very positive feedback.

- DJDiane Micheli· March 20th, 2024Overall Our trip went great with only a few concerns. I had to ask for the itinerary 3 days before the trip and a temporary one was provided. But the final was presented to me at the airport upon arrival. We booked the superior hotels and they were wonderful and food was great. All the transportation worked out, but the land to boat transfer to Torteguerro was confusing. Better communication would have been helpful. The guides were all fabulous! We saw wildlife at all the parks. Our Destination Services agent was helpful. Although, there was a misunderstanding when I requested an extra day at Manuel Antonio and she booked us at San Jose instead. I also learned that the "Optional Activities" are Completely on your own--as in-- 'find you own activity and outfitter and reserve it'. Given what I know now, I would have built in 2 extra days in the schedule due to hours of long ground travel between the destinations.Show moreDestination Services Costa Rica commented on this reviewThank you very much for your feedback!

- Sun· February 27th, 2024The transportation between each site are just too far. The worst is I got informed less than 4 days that due to hotel availability, two location sequence got swapped. So I had to back track quite a bit, so a 3.5 hours extra commute time for 1 days (on the road from 7 am to 6pm), and another day 2.5 hr extra. The staff informed me was very nice and offer me a full refund, but 4 days does not give me enough time to plan for another vacation. I would not recommend my friends with this experience.Show moreDestination Services Costa Rica commented on this reviewGood Day Dear Sun Shaw Our apologies for the transportation situation, we appreciate your comments to keep improving.
