Customer Reviews
We had a wonderful experience! Our first stop was rustic and beautiful. The food was delicious and there was plenty to do during our “off” time. The second resort was an amazing location with beautiful views. The rooms were comfortable with air conditioning. The bathrooms could use some updating. The final stop was stunning with pool and ocean views. The food was delicious and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. All and all, three memorable visits.
It is great for all ages . We had a mixed group ages 8 - 85 , had a wonderful time together .
Beautiful trip, one we've done in the past and revisited last month.
We covered so much of Costa Rica! I saw so many different landscapes, animals, and had multiple amazing experiences!
Packed with action. Great multi-generational adventure. Lots of sights and experiences that are expertly guided.
Excellent guide. REALLY promoted the Trafalgar family. We were never left "alone" during the daytime for the tours. They stuck to the itinerary and kept us going. Much fun. We wanted a tour where we did LOTS of activities and you absolutely performed. Picture below is a tasting of all the fresh fruits in Costa Rica, which we will remember for a very long time. Thank you!
Our tour guide German was fantastic he was very knowledgeable he loves his job. The bus driver was great too he was one of the best drivers I’ve ever had. The overall experience was amazing
The itinerary for Monkeys, Jungles, & Volcanoes was wonderful. Travels went at a good pace for most of the group. Accommodations were quite good, even at the more primitive hotel. Hot water for showers and flushing toilets. Stops along the way were very interesting and local business owners very friendly & helpful. Our guide, *Personal details removed by Feefo*, was the best and coach driver, *Personal details removed by Feefo* was also quite professional and efficient at navigating narrow roads. The major destinations (Arenal, Tortuguero, and *Personal details removed by Feefo*) were all quite beautiful with plenty of fascinating wildlife and lovely landscapes.
