    The trip was well laid out, I frequently reached out to our travel rep Karla, with questions and she was fantastic in assisting me with any questions prior and during the trip. She offered excellent activity tours like sea kayaking in Samara and zip lining in Arenal. We enjoyed every moment. The self drive part worked out very well and National car rental was very good to work with. We liked the freedom of having our own vehicle. The trip was one of the best trips I have ever taken and the people of Costa Rica were very kind. They really love their country and put family, schooling, the environment and their health first! Many countries could learn from them!

    Costa Rica single trip was a unforgettable experience! Almost everything was excellent arranged like the transfer bus and all the tours. Some of the hotels could be better like the clean bed sheets. One hotel like Tropica Latino has many mosquitos inside my room and it was enoying. The tours was amazing and unforgettable. Meeting with new people around the world was a great experience.

    We had a great trip! Accommodation ranged from good to excellent. Breakfasts were included but some early departures resulted in them being missed. Transfers were good and on time. Andres at destination services responded quickly to our questions and solved a few problems for us. The itinerary was great. Although Santa Theresa was hard to get to (rough roads, long drive) it was fun to see. You get to see a lot of Costa Rica on this trip.
