    Our tour director and bus driver were excellent. Our hotel in San Jose was excellent and the one in LA Fortuna very good. However the one in Monteverde was not so good. The beds were uncomfortable, there was no air conditioning and no fans. If this hotel was better my rating would have been 5 stars.

    We had a fantastic week. We found the itinerary very basic with how long you get in each place and how much free time on offer. In the free time we enjoyed a variety of activities which we would highly reccomend! In Monteverde we booked the children’s rainforest night tour through Globus which we really enjoyed. The next evening we booked a different night tour in fiscus trails which we found even better. We also did the zip lining which was fun. In Arenal we highly reccomend the sloth walking trail, which we did in our free time, we saw 5 sloths in total which was amazing and we loved the guided tour to see them. We also did the horse riding to the waterfalls through Globus which was brilliant! It was our first time riding a horse and the route we took was beautiful, swimming in the waterfall topped it all off. The activities included in the itinerary were also good but one of the days is miss leading as you are in fact just travelling to the next destination before having free time. Our guide Jorge was brilliant and talked to us most of the journeys duration giving great knowledge about Costa Rica. Our driver Franscisco was also fantastic and was brilliant at keeping everyone comfortable. I would highly reccomend this tour but make sure you use all free time wisely and book extra activities to enjoy!

    -Everything was thought through. -No pressure to do optional tours -The guide really made this tour really good. And the weather was on our side so beautiful views every stop. -Costa Rica is amazing so if you not sure just book it -will use Tour Radar again. PUDA VIDA -would have liked that if transfers were not included, it would be stated more clearly the only negative

    Costa Rica is a magnificently beautiful country. A wonderful place to visit. We traveled on a beautiful new bus complete with WiFi. Jorge, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable and helpful as was Roberto, our bus driver. I felt I was in very capable hands throughout the trip. The hotels were very nice and served excellent breakfasts. Optional excursions were excellent. I especially like the hot springs and dinner excursion and the rafting river excursion.

    Hello. It was a pleasure to be in this trip. About guide, Mr. Jorge A. and driver (sorry, I forget his name) 2 of the most friendly people I have ever met in C.R. They know more information, explanations and a lot of details. Personally, I was very pleased with accommodation; local tours (night trip; day hick trip in rain forest/ cloud forest reserve; horse riding; boat trip ...) P.S. I didn't forgot on the Mr. Manfred and Henry which have been guides in Tortuguero.Awesome. P.P.S. Pura Vida !
