Elena was amazing. Knowledgeable and very pleasant to work with. She planned my bucket list trip of a life time exactly with precision and left no detail out. She included all of the activities that were important to me as well as my Niece and Great Niece that made this such a memorable experience

We had a private guide “Andy” who was so gracious wonderful. He shared his time and years of experience with a passion. He is an A+++ and represented your company very well

Our drivers were also amazing. Everything about Costa Rica was magical and special

Hola Mary,

Reading your message truly means the world to me 💛. Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. It was an absolute honor to plan your bucket list trip, and knowing that it was everything you envisioned, and more, is the greatest reward I could receive.

I’m especially happy that Shannon and Lauren were able to share in such a meaningful and memorable experience with you. Creating journeys that bring families together in a special way is exactly why I love what I do.

I will be sure to share your wonderful feedback with Andy. He is truly passionate about what he does, and I know your recognition will mean so much to him. I will also pass along your kind words to our drivers, they take great pride in ensuring every transfer is smooth, safe, and comfortable.

Costa Rica has a magical way of touching hearts, and it brings me so much joy to know it touched yours. Thank you sincerely for trusting me with such an important trip. It would be my pleasure to assist you again whenever you’re ready for your next adventure.

With gratitude 🙏🏼, Pura Vida!
