Customer Reviews

    · July 19th, 2025
    This was an amazing experience to discover the north and east side of Costa Rica. We really liked the experience in the canals, in a very secluded place as an alternative to Tortuguero. All the itinerary was well planned, well executed with no delays and great service. We loved the people of Costa Rica!
