    An excellent superb tour!! I saw more animals and nature on this tour than the most of the Central America tour! If you’re into an adventure and love nature and unique animals this is your tour!

    It was a perfect introduction to Costa Rica. In other reviews, I noticed that some felt that there should have been more meals and excursions included in the price. I thought that the amount was fair. It allowed us time to choose excursions that were of interest to us and to eat what, when and with whom we wanted. I preferred the mix of flexibility and structure. And for everything we did, the pace was excellent as well.

    Antigua to San José was a fascinating introduction to 5 countries, from Mayan to recent political history, ecological and culinary experiences, adrenaline-raising zip lining or volcano boarding to a blissful beachfront retreat. Trip was seamlessly organised and guide Walter went above and beyond in assisting each traveler to get the most from their trip. Highly recommended.

    Josh

    Asked on April 10th, 2025

    Do you have a strict age limit on this tour? I am 37 and this was one of the only tours that would fit my current travel plans and budget. Do you have a list of hotels you usually use? How many people are already booked on this trip date?

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten April 2025

      The One Week in Costa Rica trip is specifically designed for travellers between the ages of 18 and 35, and unfortunately, we are unable to accept travellers outside of this age range. We'd be happy to recommend an alternative option: Costa Rica: Hike, Bike & Raft, which would suit your travel plans and budget.

    • J

      Josh

      TravelerWritten April 2025

      It is unfortunate but can understand. It doesn't seem like you have a departure in June for Costa Rica: Hike, Bike & Raft. Any other alternatives for June departures in Costa Rica?

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten April 2025

      Sadly, if you were looking for an active trip this would be our only option and we do not have any departures for June due to peak hurricane season.

    Neil

    Asked on March 5th, 2025

    Is it cheaper if we book as volunteers with volunteer world? Are there any other youngsters on the tour? My boys will be 15 and 17, huge boys 1,83 :) Can I reserve this roundtrip for 48 hours?

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten March 2025

      This particular trip is designed for travelers between the ages of 18 and 35, so it may not be the best fit for your boys. We are pleased to offer a complimentary hold on the trip for 48 hours, after which a deposit of 1200 is required to confirm your space.

    • N

      Neil

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      Can we also join as a family? As we are volunteers close to Quepos, is it possible to arrange a pickup at Quepos for starting the tour? And alternative to the ending in San Jose could we stay at the carribean beach for two more nights instead of going back to San Jose?

    • N

      Neil

      TravelerWritten March 2025

      The boys will be 17 and 14 years old, I'm 48. So we are looking for a group trip like this. Is there a trip that suits better because of our ages?

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten March 2025

      This particular trip is designed for a specific group of travelers who enjoy traveling with others in a similar age range. We have an alternative Costa Rica: Hike, Bike & Raft departure on 19JUL - 26JUL or 02AUG - 09AUG. We also have a Costa Rica Family Holiday that fits your dates, but since your boys are a little older this could be too kid friendly.
