Perfectly Planned Birthday Trip for My 18 Year Old Daughter - I can't say enough about Travel Tropical Tours. I knew nothing about planning a trip to Costa Rica. All I knew was that I wanted to take my daughter for her 18th birthday and I did not want to drive on those crazy roads! I reached out to TTT and they immediately responded with a fantastic itinerary that included plenty of adventure and animals (her two requests). The best part was that I didn't have to drive or do anything. They booked all of the hotels, tours and activities for me. We had the same driver the entire time. His name was Jose and he was fabulous (so kind, patient and helpful). He would pick us up at the hotel and drive us to all of our tours (and the occasional trip to get ice cream or fresh fruit!) I can't imagine this trip going any better. I really can't recommend them enough.

Extremely Professional - On behalf of my family, I would like to thank, you and your team for making our very first, First Cousins Vacation to bond be a success. We were able to make memories that will last a life time, thanks to your team. David and Ronald have great chemistry and have really good work ethic. It was surprising to us to find out that this was their first time working together. They make a great team. They were always on time and always communicated with us. Ronald was filled with knowledge and kept the group engaged. I have spoken to my cousins about our experience while on Costa Rica, from start to finish. Everyone enjoyed out time in Costa Rica. I am so happy that my idea was brought to fusion and your team executed with what seemed like ease. I plan to return and see other parts of the country. It won't be this year, but I most definitely will be in touch when we are ready to embark on another Costa Rican journey. We'd love to work with you all again.

Fun and SAFE Experience for Anyone! A+ - My wife and I visited Costa Rica for our honeymoon and cannot recommend Travel Tropical Tours enough! Every detail was meticulously planned and executed, making our honeymoon the trip of a lifetime. Our travel planner (Sarah) went above and beyond to craft an itinerary that perfectly matched our interests and desires. She took the time to listen to our preferences, suggesting unique activities that truly made our journey special—everything from intimate sunset dinners to adrenaline-packed adventures in the rainforest, and booked everything for us. The personalized touches were everywhere, from local culinary experiences to hidden gems off the beaten path. Our tour guide (Greivin) was nothing short of exceptional. Knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about Costa Rica’s natural beauty, he brought each destination to life with fascinating stories and insights. And our driver, Davíd—always punctual, friendly, and incredibly safe on the winding mountain roads. It was a true luxury to be able to sit back and enjoy the stunning scenery while being chauffeured in comfort with friendly conversation. They even had beers on ice waiting for us upon pickup at the airport, and were available any time to drive us anywhere we wanted to go while not on an excursion! Every moment of our honeymoon felt like it was designed just for us, and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect experience. If you're looking for an unforgettable, stress-free, and truly special way to explore Costa Rica, Travel Tropical Tours is the way to go. Thank you Sarah, Greivin and David!

Magical Family Vacation in Costa Rica with Travel Tropical Tours! - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Working with Travel Tropical Tours to plan our family trip to Costa Rica from the USA was a phenomenal, stress free experience. We highly recommend their services! From the initial contact through our stay in Costa Rica to our final farewell, Sarah and Greivin were attentive to our needs. We are a family of five, kids 14 y/o and 12 y/o(s). We reached out via e-mail with our basic travel interests and Sarah’s quick response was an eight day itinerary starting in San Jose to four days exploring in La Fortuna to another four days in Manuel Antonio, complete with lodging and some meals. For my fellow planners, Sarah sent a pre-trip packing list and reached out every night with the plan and details for the next day. They were flexible with our additions to our activities, meals and other desired explorations. Our guide and driver, Greivin & David, welcomed us to Costa Rica with kindness, joy and most importantly, safety. In La Fortuna, we explored exhilarating adventures such as zip lining through Arenal Park and the Hanging Bridges to embracing the calmness of floating along the Sarapiqui River on a boat tour, hiking through the Lava Trail and relaxed in the Baldi Hot Springs. Our stay at The Lost Iguana resort was immaculate, quiet and comforting. Our stay in Manual Antonio at Costa Verde was immersed in the rainforest, monkeys and with an ocean view. We enjoyed a coffee & chocolate tour, a private guided hike through the National Park, a quick dip in the Pacific Ocean, private surf lessons and a boat ride in the Mangroves along the Paquita River. We soaked in all of the Costa Rican culture, sun & rain, nature, animals, delicious cuisine and could not have experienced this forever memorable trip with our family without the attention to detail Travel Tropical Tours offered us. The staff at both hotels were polite, welcoming and respectful. The accommodations were clean and spacious. It was hard to leave the Costa Rican paradise our party of five fell in love with. We will be back and happily use Travel Tropical Tours again. Until we meet again, from our hearts to yours, we hold so much gratitude for your small business kindness. Muchas Gracias and Pura Vida 🌿🤍

Wonderful adventure in Costa Rica - We would recommend this tour to anyone. Driving in Costa Rica can be challenging so having a driver takes away the stress. Everyone we worked with was responsive, professional and knowledgeable. They recommended a variety of tours geared specifically to our interests. The driver, guides and hotels were all outstanding. We could not have selected a better tour. You will not go wrong booking a Costa Rican adventure with Travel Tropical Tours.

Trip of a lifetime - Travel Tropical Tours made visiting and exploring Costa Rica worry free. They personalized a tour for four adults in our 60’s based on our interests and abilities. All the scheduling details were taken care of and all we needed to do was enjoy ourselves. We didn’t worry about parking, driving, or entry fees. We didn’t fuss over where we should eat, or stay. We had our own driver, David who made us feel so comfortable and provided us with a rocking playlist, dining at authentic Costa Rican sodas, and interesting shopping experiences. Greivin, co-owner of the tour company was our knowledgeable guide and interpreter. Sarah, Greivin’s wife kept in touch with us the entire trip and even made arrangements for our airport shuttle after our stay. We are so grateful for their hospitality and feel like we really experienced Costa Rica. Can’t wait to come back one day.

Great Vacation in Costa Rica - We just returned from an amazing family vacation in Costa Rica, made possible by Travel Tropical Tours and their wonderful owners, Sarah and Greivin. Our trip was a special occasion - a family reunion of seven people coming together from couple different countries to celebrate Christmas and New Year’s. From the moment we reached out, Sarah worked closely with us to create a tailored itinerary that accommodated everyone’s desires and physical abilities. Her attention to detail was remarkable, requiring only minor adjustments to get to the final plan. Sarah was always available throughout planning stage, immediately answering any questions we had or making suggestions based on our needs. She thoughtfully selected hotels that accommodated our budget and needs combined with unique experiences such as hot springs at Baldi Resort. Each hotel offered its own charm but our favorite was Si Como No in Manuel Antonio for its ocean views and attention to guests. One of the many highlights of working with Travel Tropical Tours was the convenience they provided. We didn’t have to worry about driving or renting a car because we had a dedicated driver and guide to accompany us throughout our trip. We always felt comfortable, safe, and well taken care of, no matter where we went. Our itinerary included a diverse array of tours. Among our favorites were the Ox Cart Cultural Tour, where we had the privilege of spending time with an amazing local family, the thrilling zip-lining adventure, an unforgettable rafting experience, and visits to the stunning Manuel Antonio National Park and Rainmaker Conservation Park. Whenever we needed recommendations for lunch or dinner, Sarah and Greivin always provided a good lists of local restaurants and then handled reservations for us, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience. When moving to new accommodations, Greivin personally ensured we checked in without any issues and received the rooms we were supposed to, adding an extra layer of care to our trip. If you are considering a trip to Costa Rica, we highly recommend working with Travel Tropical Tours. Thanks to their team we have experienced the warm hospitality of Costa Rica and the very best this country has to offer!

Highly recommend, excellent !!! - Sarah was amazing from beginning all the way to the end. She tailored a fantastic itinerary that was smart and made sense for our four teens. Small things that I wouldn't have thought of was embedded in the itinerary taking into account weather, the right amount of adventure and relaxing . Her choices of accommodations were fantastic. I decided to go with her tour because she made the whole trip seamless. Jeanfred was our personal tour guide and he was great , kind , funny , and took time to show us even along our travel days animals he could scope out from afar, even making sure we had great restaurants that would help our teen with gluten free food . Walter was a fabulous driver , kind always looking out for us, with safe driving and accommodating when we needed a drive to places . Our kids loved this trip and we have many wonderful memories because of this group . I would definitely use them again !!!

Great Adventure - What started as a simple question being answered turned into one of the most amazing vacations for my family. Sarah was quick to answer any of my questions and help put into motion what turned into a great 9-day trip for everyone. The whole process was stress-free making it a wonderful time for everyone. Greivin was there to make sure all the tours got started as planned and made sure we were well taken care of. He had some great recommendations for additional stops, local sodas for some great food, and was always willing to answer our questions. Sarah helped us get all of our activities lined up from zip lining, hanging bridges, a chocolate tour, deep sea fishing, white water rafting, waterfalls, a cooking class and much more all stress-free. Knowing that I also didn't have to worry about driving anywhere made this trip even better. Our driver, David, took good care of us on the road and got us safely everywhere we went. From start to finish, it was a great experience working with Travel Tropical Tours and I would highly recommend them.

Pura Vida from Travel Tropical Tours! - We loved our time with Sarah and Grevin on our tour of Limon! Grevin was extremely knowledgeable about the flora and fauna of the rainforest! He spotted sloth, an eyelash pit viper, monkeys galore, and even an anteater. Sarah did an amazing job organizing our tour of eight! Both Sarah and Grevin spoke with pride of their country and were extremely respectful of environment and Costa Rican culture. Our trip was educational and very fun! Thank you for sharing your “Pura Vida”!
