I highly recommend Costa Rica experts, they looked for the best places, activities, accommodations, everything to make our trip one of the best

We had one of our BEST family trips thanks to the coordination of Costa Rica Experts! They are connected and know the best places to visit and stay! We all felt very special and had five-star service! Thanks!

Excellent company. Planned the perfect vacation for our family! We let them know what we were looking for and the ages of the children and they picked great excursions for them! This trip was amazing and we can’t recommend them enough!

Costa Rica Experts helped us plan and then execute a fun and relaxing trip without worry. Transfers and details were handled seamlessly and we were able to have a relaxing worry free vacation. Highly recommended.

Costa Rica Experts helped plan us the dream honeymoon. Having worked in travel Im always reticent to give up control but Im so glad I did.Monica did an outstanding job of fitting the trip to our needs; balancing relaxation with just the right amount of activities. All the hotels they chose were excellent. The trip was the antidote to a stressful wedding. Everything ran like clock work and all of the local drivers and tour guides were welcoming.We left with nothing but praise for Costa Rica. It gave us a taste of everything the county has to offer.

My wife and I recently returned from our honeymoon in Costa Rica. We are not usually ones to use a travel agency, but we did not feel like planning a trip in great detail after planning a wedding. I am so glad we found Costa Rica Experts. Every aspect of the trip was well organized and smooth. The drivers were on time, the resorts were excellent, and all excursions were amazing. They made the trip very relaxing for the both of us. Excellent overall experience!

Costa Rica Experts helped plan our Costa Rican vacation and from the time we left Chicago our trip was a flawless adventure. We could not have asked for a better trip which included everything. The memories were ours to enjoy forever.

Our travel agent, Megan, did an absolutely outstanding job with planning our trip!! She found the perfect plan for us within our price range. We had a blast on our trip and she deserves the most credit!!

Outstanding trip! I worked with Ariana Freeman. I was planning a girls trip...we love nature, are avid birders and wanted to stay in a bit more upscale places - each in our own rooms. She really listened to what to what we were looking to do; we had a couple productive calls and she delivered a great package. Having Ariana handle all the logistics was the biggest help. I did not have time to put everything together and I wanted someone who had first hand knowledges of the places were going. The private drivers, guided nature tours, lovely hotels - all with awesome service - this trip exceeded expectations. Communication was clear, prices were very reasonable (for rainy season). We were able to see a very special bird, the Resplendent Quetzal, which as a birder is one of the most special birds you could ever hope see. Thanks to Costa Rica Experts for a very special, memorable vacation.

We were very happy with Costa Rica Experts advice and service !Matt helped us to chose great locations (Tortuguero, Arenal, Manuel Antonio) and outstandingly environment friendly lodges in those locations !

Costa Rica Experts has planned two trips for us: one to Panama and one to Costa Rica. Both times they found unique and amazing place for us to stay and things for us to do. We had a problem with our booking in Panama and they worked hard and made it right without us even knowing there was a problem. We really enjoyed working with them.

My husband and I always plan our trips but this time,we decided to get some help in traveling around Costa Rica. Costa Rica Experts did everything we needed, from transportation to lodging to excursions. Everything was perfect. Arianna gave us some wonderful suggestions of Lodges and arranged everything. Each driver was on time, but more important, so knowledgable and friendly. They were one of the reasons our trip was so terrific. Our plane was 31/2 hours late arriving in San Jose, but our driver was waiting for us. The excursions for just the two of us were amazing. I would highly recommend using Costa Rica Experts.

CRE did an amazing job planning a vacation for my family. I told them we wanted adventure and they made sure we werent disappointed. As a busy professional and mom, I didnt have time to plan our week long trip. CRE planned our vacation better than I ever could with everything fully organized. Aaron Daker made sure we stayed in amazing hotel rooms and even helped rearrange our schedule with flight delays. I highly recommend this company.

Helped us plan our Christmas vacation in Costa Rica. Transportation was easy and drivers all so friendly and helpful. Great suggestions for our itinerary and accommodated our requests. Would use again!

My brother, husband and I traveled to Costa Rica for vacation in January, and Costa Rica Experts arranged the accommodations, tours, drivers and guides. We were very pleased with the entire trip, including transportation between stops and tour guides, who were very knowledgeable and helpful. The drivers were prompt, courteous and allowed plenty of time to stop on the way if we wanted to see something particular. The Arenal Nayara was the best resort we have ever stayed in, and its staff and facilities were superb. Having a private tour was advantageous in that no one was lagging behind, late for departures, and there was no standing in line to be able to see anything on the tours. Thank you, Costa Rica Experts, for a wonderful experience.

We used them last year on our special anniversary vacation . They were excellent as with our schedules and nanny hunting we had no time . They took care of it all . Wonderful people ! We loved it !

My husband and I booked our honeymoon through Costa Rica Experts and had a wonderful experience. We worked with Ariana to get our travel booked and she worked with us and accommodated our dates of travel. I will say CRE works with the best companies in Costa Rica. I felt very safe in every transfer we took, the drivers were very knowledgeable and so friendly. Every excursion we had planned and pick up was on time and very reliable. We stayed at Makanda by the Sea first and the hotel and landscape was amazing there! It was a nice quiet resort that had really great food and was close to the beach and the bars and restaurants in Manuel Antonio. We also went to Nayara Gardens Resort and Spa and it was one of the most beautiful hotels I have ever stayed in. All of the excursions went really well and the Ticos/Ticas were helpful, friendly and truly cared about each guest. I felt very welcomed there and would recommend any of my friends book through Costa Rica Experts! We had the best time!

This was the first time Id booked a trip with a travel agency and now I get the hype. These guys were amazing!! We chose the Family Safari and added on a visit to Monteverde through our agent Matt Labunski. Some research before I found CRE gave me a sense of where I wanted to go and what I wanted to do, but I couldnt imagine dealing with the nitty gritty of choosing hotels and transportation and tours beyond that. On their site I chose from a list of enticing packages, made any alterations and sorted details through Matt, and... oh, my God. This was the most relaxing, no brainer vacation Ive ever had. The order and variety of all the places we went and the things we did was PERFECT, everywhere we stayed was fantastic, all of our tour guides and drivers (and pilot!) were on time, pleasant, and fun to talk to... Just phenomenal all around. Thanks, Costa Rica Experts, for giving our family one of the easiest and most spectacular trips of our lives!

We used CRE to book a weeklong vacation trip to Costa Rica for our family of four. Save for the flights that we booked ourselves, they took care of everything. Ariana and the crew at CRE were always available to answer questions, and when a last-minute change had to be made (not CREs fault), they were very timely in making alternate arrangements. I cant say enough about how wonderful they were to work with, and we would definitely use them again in the future.

As senior citizens who do not speak Spanish, we needed help for our first trip to Costa Rica. After searching the web, we chose Costa Rica Experts who have main offices in USA, as well as in Costa Rica. Our trip, including lodging, excursions and local transports, was arranged by Ariana, tailored to our needs. Every step was smoothly executed to make our trip a memorable and most satisfying experience. Their office in Costa Rica was also easily accessible for making any changes in our plans while we were there. The accommodations they reserved for us were luxurious, and in the middle of forests with superb vistas, such as Nayara hotel in Arenal, or the Monteverde Lodge. Besides participating in well-known excursions, we also had many unique experiences, such as the Mangrove boat and Kayak tour by Safari Adventures, through hotel Gaia in Manuel Antonio, or the Monteverde cloud forest reserve hike with Oscar Castillo, a Naturalist guide (Nasua tours), whose in depth descriptions of the flora and fauna, and knack of finding and helping us get close up pictures of the elusive Quetzal or the viper with eyelashes or the tiny orchid blooming under a leaf, made us feel very close to the natural world of the forest.

I just returned from Costa Rica, and Costa Rica Experts lived up to their name. The hotels were beautiful and the tours, activities and tour guides were great. We traveled to Arenal, Monte Verde and Manuel Antonio in a week, and every transfer went off without a hitch. Best of all, our group of 5 got to choose our destinations and activities--we didnt have to take a pre-packaged tour. Thank you Brandon Hagg!Anne G.

Having not been to Costa Rica before, a little extra help was appreciated. Costa Rica Experts and their associate, Aaron Daker were always there for me. We had a well planned trip with good contacts and vouchers that worked everytime. The best part of the trip was Tortuguero National Park and the quiet,comfortable Manatus Hotel right on the Tortuguero River with the sounds of the Carribbean just beyond the tree line across the river.The staff of the Manutus Hotel were great and Luis, our naturalist and guide for the park, was superb. Also, our tour included a. 4X4 SUV and we drove across Costa Rica from San Jose to Tobacon Hot Springs and the Arenal Volcano and down to Quepos to the exquisite Parador Hotel and back to San Jose. What fun!Thanks Costa Rica Experts!

Well organized trip. Recommended!
