- SFSamir· January 7th, 2017Overall the trip went well. We were a family of 4 traveling together. We really didn't like the hostel in San Jose. It was a great place for young single travelers but in no way a place for a family like us. The hostel in Monteverde was a little bit better but old as well. The highlight was the lodge in Tortugero. The ecolodge was nice and the resort was clean and enchanted. The hotel in Fortuna was the most modern with AC in the room. Transportation was adequate and we were always picked up at the time indicated on the itinerary. Only 2 vans out of the whole trip was equipped with Wifi. We had upgraded from a hostel accommodation to a 3 star but I'm not sure 2 of the hostels qualified for the upgrade. I'd recommend this itinerary for people that haven't been to Costa Rica before. Traveling from one town to the next can be challenging as the roads don't have good signage and the poor conditions of the roads make driving quite challenging in my opinion. The planned activities are fun and keep you busy the whole time.Show moreBamba Travel commented on this reviewHello Samir, Thank you for taking the time to review your experience!

- Jenny· August 8th, 2016The actual tour plan was great. I felt I got a good sample of Costa Rica. Unfortunately I never saw the word "Hostel" anywhere in the description until after I'd paid and then when I got my actual itinerary (a week before departure) was the point I realised that I would be staying in hostels for the most part. They really need to make that clear in the website description. I usually travel under my own steam and thought that for the last week in Costa Rica I would have a stress free week, however as one of the hostels got things horribly wrong (twice) the trip was tainted. Evergreen Lodge at Tortuguero was fantastic and I was impressed to find out meals were included (which I did not expect for that part) however I have quite severe insomnia so the hostels partying until wee hours flat out did not suit me and I WOULD NOT have booked this had I known they were hostels. The transportation was above my expectations and on time every time and the included day trips were fantastic. Overall I feel that a few bad hostel experiences spoilt the trip but the ability to not have to organise my own transportation was fantastic. Mention its hostels and give people an option to pay more for budget hotels and you would have got 5 stars.Show moreBamba Travel commented on this reviewHi Jenny, Thanks for your feedback and for taking the time to post a review!
