Reviews of our Costa Rica Experienced Traveler Tours
Our Experienced explorers reflect on their cultural journeys through Costa Rica.
Barry | Traveled in October
This was an exceptional trip, The itinerary, pace and tour leader made it one of my best trips yet, The only thing that distracted from this was the Whitewater rafting. This was included within the itinerary and the company had set an age limit of 65 for those who rafted on the main river. There was no discussion, If you were over 65 you went on a river, more like a stream which for me was a total waste of time. So people over 65, fit and with rafting experience were relegated to a small river whilst others with no experience rafted the main river. Rafting company nonsense rules. Would have been better if the company took notice of fitness and experience or allowed people to sign a disclaimer.

The whole trip to Costa Rica with Explore was a memorable experience. Our guide Diego and coach driver Jose looked after us with care and their enthusiasm to make sure we saw as much wildlife, plantlife and scenery as possible has given us many memorable moments

Our tour leader was excellent and really made the holiday! The itinerary was jam packed and I felt we got the absolute most out of our time, despite not being very restful!
Liz | Traveled in October
I cannot praise our tour leader and my experience of visiting Costa Rica highly enough. The care and attention provided was excellent. The wildlife aspects of the itinerary exceeded expectations. The pace of the trip ensured there was a good balance between activities and relaxation making it well-balanced, a ‘holiday’ as well as a learning opportunity.

The only reason I would not take another Collette tour is the ridiculous request for excessive tipping of the tour guide and bus driver. I expect that you should pay your employees a fair wage and if I want to tip I will decide how much. Many of us on the trip thought this was an embarrassment to Collette. Highlight of the trip.......watching a sea turtle lay eggs on the beach!
Sam | Traveled in September
The trip was amazing - Best holiday ever. Our guide, Diego, went above and beyond to make sure that we had a fabulous holiday - keeping four teens from 14 to 20 entertained on a holiday isn't always easy but we all loved it.
