A beautiful Costa Rica memory I write this email to send a HUGE thank you to the recent team who made this experience in CR a lifetime beautiful memory. From the moment we were met at the San Jose airport it was a seamless, well organized trip. For the next 12 days our guide Juan Carlos(JC), our driver Memo and the boys made us feel like family. The entire trip was exhilarating.. a sensory experience and sensation .. from the activities each day...the food.. the local changing scenery.. the teams knowledge...and being in the most wonderful and varied locations each night. The accommodation never disappointed me...the small tents.. then a lovely hotel room. Santa Maria and then the hill climb the next day. The Soda eateries.. Memo & JC food.And and and and and.. the list is too long to type.It was utterly beyond my expectations. Please say thanks to the team. As we sit in Santa Teresa surfing we recommend this trip daily to others. Keep this adventure going and I would repeat it any day if I ever get another opportunity .
OMG! Best trip ever! We had Chris as our main guide and Jefrey and Darvin supporting. Our group was amazing and we finished the trip really feeling like a team. We crossed the whole country without putting a foot in a vehicle, only biking, hiking, rafting and kayaking. The tour is thought to give everyone enough time to accomplish this feat. Some days we woke up 530am in the morning, so we had enough time to enjoy the ride and be able to get to the next stop. It is quite physically challenging, bike sections as well as hiking are very steep. I strongly recommend some preparation before signing up. There is no need from specific training, but you have to be relatively fit. The majority of the nights we spent in campings. You will see they say the guides will cook. When I read that the first time I was like "oh boy, this is not going to be good". Darvin was the main cook in the camping, OMG! I wanted to bring him home!!! Seriously, best food ever! A week after coming back I was already missing him. Jefrey was the rafting guide for my boat and he was phenomenal. Really knows his stuff. And Chris... what to say about this guy? The way he guided the tour made us feel like a team and he knows this route as the back of his hand, having done it for several years. Strongly recommend this tour!!!
We were very impressed with our tour across Costa Rica. Our trip leader Juan Carlos and his support team were well organized, knowledgeable, and fun to spend time with. They also kept us well fed with delicious meals and snacks, most of which were made from scratch. The logistics behind this trip were more than I had expected, switching back and forth from hiking, biking, rafting and kayaking, but we never had to wait to continue our next leg. Thank you to the folks at World Expeditions for setting up our trip.
