"Marina and she turned out to be a real gem from the start. Not only was she patience, responsive, would listen, provide suggestions, recommendations, however what we valued most was her local knowledge in all aspects once we were able to convey across our “needs” & “expectations”. She really turned out to be our eyes and ears on Costa Rica."

"The trip Marina helped to plan was flawless, we were never asked for proof of payment, groups tours were very small & personal and more importantly exactly along the lines on what she had suggested. It turned out to be value for money vacation and no wasted days or tours. We would do it all over again in hindsight!"

"By far, the best decision I ever made, as she was able to secure much lower rates than I could on my own, and the recommendations she gave for hotels, tours (she arranged all of them & our transportation) and the area were spot on. We are recommending her to all our friends and family and we will be using her again."

We had a fantastic time in Costa Rica and want to thank you for helping us organize our trip.

We fell in love with Costa Rica and the wonderful people! All the hotel and tour arrangements were flawless. Frank turned out to be a valuable resource – his high energy and enthusiasm are admirable and we definitely recommend him. Steve and Rita, Casa Bella Rita, are wonderful folks and we will definitely stay with them if we ever have the good fortune to visit Costa Rica again.

We cannot thank you enough for your other personalized tips including those for finding vegetarian food!
