San Jose 8-Day Tour Reviews
Guest reviews from travelers on 8-Day tours in and around San Jose
Jennifer | Traveled in January
We loved the trip but the packing list was not correct. I packed shampoo and stuff that the resorts provided which wasted room and weight in my luggage. Also there was no need for water purification tablets. We didn't need a whistle or an outlet adapter so I would take these off the list since they take up space in the luggage. A poncho is a must. Everyone we worked with was very professional and positive
Jacqueline O. | Traveled in February
The tour was amazing. Excellent accommodations, the included excursions took us to everything we needed to see. I have no retreats or sadness of not being able to do or see something, because we did it all and saw everything! It was a fabious tour and I would do it again. Costa is so beautiful and the people are so very friendly. Perfect for a first time out of country tour.
Emily D | Traveled in April
Great experience - learned so much more about the country and the area and connected with fellow travelers from around the world. The small group tour made travel a breeze for this single mom traveling solo with her son!
Sheri C. | Traveled in March
Enjoyed the trip very much. Loved the diversity of the country. The farm experience was fun. Loved the hands on activities. Beautiful country side. More time on the Pacific coast, only time to visit the beach one morning.
Zainab Hakim | Traveled in September
We had a great time and liked every place and activity that was part of the trip. The transfers were well coordinated and always on time. Most hotel accommodations were good and location was central to other activities. We were able to customize the itinerary to include Caribbean coast which was also really nice!
