- Beverly· January 12th, 2022Oldemar was extremely responsive and able to plan our trip for us at the last minute. I highly recommend this tour as it is one of the few that takes you to Corcovado National Park in the south. Our 3 days in that region were our absolute favorite!Show more
- Shingo· December 16th, 2020Overall really good experience in wild nature and efficient support/transportation by staff. Especially Oldemar helped me to resolve problems and questions very quickly and kindly, it was very impressive support. If I have to mention something to improve, since most of daily schedule finished at early time in the afternoon, for active person like me, it was sometimes not enough. Actually, I added 7 local tours during this tour.Show more
- Richard· January 5th, 2019I will be sending a detailed assessment to Destiny Travel in the near future. Overall excellent, with superior interaction with Destiny's staff during the course of our trip. All stays were interesting, we are considering a future variation on this tour, but well worth taking and enjoying this package.Show more

- A
Anne
Asked on March 15th, 2024Wondering why it's about $1000 more than other Costa Rica tours of the same length. Also the itinerary descriptions are really limited and generally just about meals. Do you have a better description of the itinerary?
- Destiny Travel Costa Rica Operator•Written March 2024
This program has more inclusions than other programs of the same length, besides we use Superior class Hotels.
- R
Rebecca

Asked on February 5th, 2024I am interested in booking the 9-day Costa Rica tour. Could you give more overview on what the tour entails (e.g. attractions, sites, visits)? Or will the tour only drive us to certain places?
- Destiny Travel Costa Rica Operator•Written February 2024
This tour will visit 4 beautiful areas of Costa Rica: San Jose, Arenal Volcano, Monteverde Cloudforest and Manuel Antonio National Park. The tour includes visits to attractions like Sarchi oxcart factory, hot springs, hanging bridges, zip lines, national park, and beach activities.

- Destiny Travel Costa Rica Operator•Written February 2024
Adding a third night in Manuel Antonio is a good choice. Extra night in Manuel Antonio beach is $230 for double room with breakfast. This is a semi-private tour with maximum 10 people.

Asked on April 2nd, 2022Will I be able to get my airport transfer both ways, just on a different day? I am coming as a solo travel but don't want/need a private room. Is it possible to not book the single room option (so I could share with another solo traveller)? Can you tell me the age range of others booked on the 9 or 10 April tour? Couples, Families or other solo travellers?
- Destiny Travel Costa Rica Operator•Written April 2022
The program you are interested of is available for the dates requested, however we do not have any other single traveller to share room with you. It would have to be booked as a single traveller. Regarding the extra night, it can be confirmed at any of the areas that the program will be visiting and the airport transfer can be done in a different date without any problem.
- G
Gary
Traveler•Written April 2022Can I confirm, you can pick me up on 9 April at airport and take me to San Jose even though my tour doesn't start until 10th?

Gary
Traveler•Written April 2022Is there anything you can do on price? It's a lot for a solo person!

Tammy
Asked on February 8th, 2022Do you require passengers to show proof of COVID vaccination? Are there any COVID precautions taken during the trip?
- Destiny Travel Costa Rica Operator•Written February 2022
To enter Costa Rica it is not necessary to have the vaccination certificate, however to enter tourist places, hotels, restaurants and most public places, it is required to have the QR or complete vaccination certificate. In Costa Rica, in the whole country and much more in the tourism sector, the same precautionary measures are still being taken since the beginning of the pandemic. The use of masks is mandatory, constant hand washing, taking temperature, disinfection of vehicles, social distancing.

Ross
Asked on February 7th, 2022If I wanted to stay an additional day at any location is that an issue? I would be happy to simply join the same tour the next day and follow on with them but I can imagine there may be a location or 2 where that might be what I wish to do perhaps making the tour a couple days longer which I would of course be happy to cover
- Destiny Travel Costa Rica Operator•Written February 2022
Regarding your inquiry, it is absolutely possible to extend your stay in any of the areas you are going to visit, there is no problem. Only that as March/April are high season months, we would need to know in which of the areas you would like to stay more nights, so that we can book in advance.
- Destiny Travel Costa Rica Operator•Written February 2022
If you like nature - Arenal volcano .. there are many things to do and see in this place. If you are a beach person - Manuel Antonio definitely would be the place.

Ross
Traveler•Written February 2022Do you have a suggestion or recommendation? Is there someone who knows the places well I could speak to for some advice?
- R
Ross
Traveler•Written February 2022I like to be able to go to local markets and meet the people in villages as well as taking pictures of sights and any exotic animals so would leave it to you to suggest where spending an extra day would make sense.
- Destiny Travel Costa Rica Operator•Written February 2022
You will have some free time on your own to visit Local markets, meet people, eat at local Tico Restaurants, etc. Definitely I would recommend the extra day in Arenal or Manuel Antonio beach.
- R
Ross
Traveler•Written February 2022So if I did an extra night in each leaving 31st returning 9th to San Jose (or 10th in time for 3pm flight) what would that make the final price?
- Destiny Travel Costa Rica Operator•Written February 2022
If you add an extra night at each place (2 nights total) .. this would be the final price for 1 person traveling Solo USD 3050
