  • Mike Nevill
“The efficiency of all the logistics, pick ups, hotels and flights was our highlight of travelling with you. The full paine rib trip was the best excursion. Connie, our guide at Las Torres was awesome. You could not improve on what we experienced. Thank you very much you and your company provided a really superb service!”
Great Trip

  • Freilich Party
“We cannot thank you enough for the wonderful trip through Costa Rica that you organized for the six of us. The local travel specialists really fulfilled our expectations as we truly enjoyed discovering and exploring the different parts of your beautiful country and with all the many reservations you arranged for our transportation, hotels, tours, etc., we never had any problems along the way and everything went very smoothly. All the guides we had were all very knowledgeable and friendly, and provided us with great experiences. One guide in particular, Felipe , was incredible, all of us treasured and enjoyed the time we spent with him and we felt we had made a wonderful Costa Rican friend! Should we return to Costa Rica, we would definitely contact you. Muchas gracias y pura vida! Our 13-Day tour of Costa Rica, the Caribbean to the Pacific, arranged for the six of us was absolutely amazing and highly recommended. Since none of us had been to Costa Rica before, this trip was perfect in that we not only got a wonderful flavor of the country, but it also included most of the must-see areas as well, along with some white-water rafting and zip lining. Though there were many, many reservations required for our trip, (six of us), including hotels, transportation, tours, etc., we never had any problems whatsoever. Also, all the guides on the tours were very knowledgeable and welcoming! One guide in particular was Felipe. All of us thoroughly enjoyed him and cannot give him enough praise, as he was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, funny, and took excellent care of us, so that we felt like we were travelling with an old friend! What we also loved about this company is the fact that we were not only dealing with a local Costa Rican company but also a company with one of the highest Certificates for Sustainable Tourism, (4 out of 5,) given out by the Costa Rican Tourism Board. This company is truly a gem and we would definitely contact them again should we return. Please give our best to Felipe!”
The seamless organization was our highlight of traveling with Say Hueque

“Very happy that all our tickets bus, ferry etc were organised too. It saved us a lot of hassles. The responsiveness and availability of English speaking people to help book tours made us to choose to travel with you. Our favorite hotel is Torres central Refugio. I would recommend booking Paine Grande Refugio instead of camping for the W trek. We were able to upgrade. But if we hadnt been able to upgrade we would have left our last day by staying in camps which were nice but definitely not as food as the Refugio.”
