Costa Rica Tours in November 2026

It was absolutely perfect! Literally one of the most fun trips I’ve been on, the format was so perfect having Jose as a guide to take us around, it helped me feel safe and it was so great doing it with someone who knew the area and the history. The trip was a perfect blend of adventure and relaxing. I’m so happy with everything we did, the trip was exactly as described and even better!

The tour was truly amazing and our tour guide was impressive! We all had a great time in beautiful Costa Rica. Each resort was breathtaking and gorgeous. I enjoyed the hanging bridges and zip lining. The view of Arenal Volcano was the most awe inspiring site I have ever seen! Truly amazing!

I thoroughly enjoyed the ExploreWorldWide cycling trip from Nicaragua to Panama. The itinerary length and route were excellent, and our group dynamic was exceptionally positive—welcoming, diverse, and without cliques. Our group leader, Mike, set the tone from the start with a smooth airport pickup and consistently strong leadership. He was knowledgeable, communicative, and great at preparing us for the varied conditions across the three countries. The support team was outstanding: skilled drivers who navigated challenging traffic with confidence, and a hands-on bike mechanic who kept everything running smoothly. Accommodations ranged from good to excellent, with consistently friendly staff. I also appreciated the food options and the straightforward system of everyone settling their own bills. Most excursions were engaging and well organized; the only exception was the afternoon nature walk, which could be improved. Overall, I would highly recommend this trip to friends and family.

An excellent way to explore Central America on two wheels—what a ride! I loved every segment of the tour. Just a heads-up: you’ll need more than basic cycling skills… and a truckload of grit. Some of the dirt roads, especially the downhills, are the kind that make you suddenly remember every loved one you’ve ever had. Definitely not for the faint-hearted. About the hotels: a few of the one-night stays were… let’s say “character-building.” The stop in Turrialba in particular did not meet even basic standards. Explore, you can do better—please save future cyclists from that experience. Now, about our tour leader, Mike. After ~15 tours across ~20 countries, I’ve finally had a tour led by a real pro athlete. And wow—what a difference. Mike’s professionalism, enthusiasm, ocean-level patience, and that trademark toothy smile made even the toughest (undualating😄）climbs feel manageable. He set the bar so high that my future tours may need oxygen just to reach it. Absolutely recommended. And if you’re lucky enough to get Mike, prepare to have your expectations ruined—in the best possible way.

A fantastic tour for sure, made all the better by an excellent tour guide (Tayron) and a very competent and accomodating driver (Andres). Tayron was a mine of information and had an encyclapedic knowledge of the wildlife we saw. Nothing was too much for them and they ensured all our requests were met.

I would recommend this trip to anyone considering it! There’s no way I could have planned such an amazing trip and fit so much into 10 days! Our guide Jose has been amazing, he absolutely made our trip and I can’t imagine how it could have been improved. He is completely organised, considerate and brings a fun energy to the trip that made the whole experience an unforgettable one! He is so knowledgeable about all things Costa Rica and his recommendations were always fantastic. He absolutely went above and beyond to make sure we had the trip of a lifetime and I can’t thank him enough 🫶🏻
