    Transportation was on time and organized (even when our plane was late arriving to country). Hostels met our expectations, plus 2/3 hostels provided breakfast. However, for future tours, 3 nights in Monteverde was too long as not enough activities to do in the evening. Would consider a TourRadar trip again, however with more beach time/days in La Fortuna, and less time in Monteverde.
