Incredible time in Costa Rica

5 - Excellent

Mateja Novaković

“I went with this tour company and their guide Manu to Costa Rica last month. It was an amazing trip, we saw so many animals; sloths, monkeys, snakes, tarantulas, had many great nights out, beach days, and crazy adventures like rafting and zip lining. Manu is so knowledgeable and sooo fun! I would go again anytime!”

Amazing trip!

5 - Excellent

Oscar Merritt

“Circuito Chico is beautiful!! With a rented car you can do it in half a day as well as the whole day enjoying the views and places. The road is good. The miradors are well marked. You can park a car and go hiking if you want. There are a number of places such as Patagonia brewery restaurant where you can have lunch coupled with great views. A really excellent experience.”

An experience to remember!

“Torres del Paine is a place that touches your soul. The sheer magnitude of the mountains, the serenity of the lakes, and the ever-changing Patagonian landscape left an indelible mark on my heart. This is not just a trip; it's an odyssey through one of the world's most extraordinary landscapes. If you're a nature lover, an adventurer, a hiker, or a photographer seeking to capture the raw beauty of our planet, Torres del Paine should be at the top of your travel list. It's an experience that will resonate with you long after you've left, a testament to the wonder and majesty of our natural world.”
