- AAAdiel· February 1st, 2024Very nice and efficient tour of the more exciting cities in Costa Rica. Very high level hotels. Greatly organized transportation transfers from location to location. Well organized tours. However, one of the tours forgot to pick us up, and after an hour of waiting we were assigned to another tour with the same plan. Usually we were picked even few minutes before the due time. We highly recommend TourRadar.Show moreDestination Services Costa Rica commented on this reviewThank you for your very positive feedback.

- CACarilyn· December 26th, 2023Arenal was clouded over--no fault of any tour. Three hours at the hot springs was too long for me, but the others enjoyed it. Food was good. The boat tour through the byways of Tortuguero was enjoyable. The woodcarving village was interesting, but we weren't shown where in/near the shop the factory was.Show moreDestination Services Costa Rica commented on this reviewGood Day Dear Carilyn.

- JMJOhn· April 28th, 2023We loved this tour and I would highly recomemned this to anyone. Costa Rica is beautiful and the people are very polite and courteous. Our whole expierence was something we'll never forget and we are planning on coming back. The guides were very knowledgeable and demonstated patience with the tourist. They answered all our questions and went at a pace that everyone could follow. TourRadar did a wonderful job and everything went as planned. We had on several occasion has to meet our ride to take us someplace, the ride ALWAYS showed up on time and the driver never asked for tips. We did bring $5.00 and $10.00 for tips depending how far the driver had to drive us or how long a escorted hike was. We will be coming back and I will definitely use TourRadar again.Show moreDestination Services Costa Rica commented on this reviewThanks so much for your feedback! we really appreciate the time you took to write such a review!

- JLJill· February 24th, 2023We loved all the locations and adventures. We wish we would have been warned about how much tip money to have on hand. The biggest issue was we didn’t know that they book part of the group at different locations so we were separated from our friends for 2 of the 3 locations. That made for extra travel cost and coordination. Overall, I would do this trip again in a heartbeat! It was amazing getting rained on in the rainforest! Alex the tour guide was Amazing in Tortuguero. Walking around Arenal we found so much food, sweets, and local art/merchandise. We also went horseback riding during the day. The zipline in Monteverde was a highlight to end on. The restaurant called Kapi Kapi is perfect for a sunset dinner, a delicious menu with and a delightful family that runs the place! The staff, live music, and food at the Radisson in San Jose was great. They helped us find the best all in one place for souvenirs! The chocolates aren’t great and the rum is horrible but the coffee liqueur is yum!Show moreDestination Services Costa Rica commented on this reviewThanks so much for your feedback!, we really appreciate the time you took to write such a review!.Hope soon you come back to Costa RicaTrip date: February 2023
- LRLaura· February 12th, 2023Overall very good experience. We did several cool things that we really enjoyed. We would like to have had more information. For example, we paid for the boat excursion in Tortuguero but they did not have record of that. It caused a few hours of stress and then at the last minute the hotel received the information that we had already paid. Would have been nice to avoid that. There was also more down time that I expected but that’s my fault for making assumptions. We had a great time overall and would do it again.Show moreDestination Services Costa Rica commented on this reviewThanks so much for your feedback!, we really appreciate the time you took to write such a review!.Hope soon you come back to Costa RicaTrip date: February 2023
