We've just come back from a fantastic tour with Intrepid. Our guide Marvin Jose Lopez Martinez was excellent and extremely knowledgeable of the history, culture and flora/fauna of Costa Rica. He organised our group with all our different activities. We mostly ate out together as a group in the evenings - was fab to have Marvin's recommendations.

Definitely the best way to see Costa Rica. We saw so many animals thanks to Marvin our guide. There is so much to do but also plenty of time to rest and relax. We ended up spending alot of time as a group including Marvin, going out to eat in the evenings to local places he recommended. It really felt like we go the real Costa Rica - pura vida!

Could not have better things to say! This was my first trip with a tour group and I will definitely be using Intrepid again. Our guide Marvin was incredible and the activities were very well organized. There were plenty of opportunities to personalize the trip as we travelled depending on whether we wanted to relax or do more activities. Absolutely amazing experience!

Had a wonderful trip! My group was excellent, and tour guide Leo’s expertise on Costa Rica’s wildlife and history enhanced the experience. The itinerary was full but not overwhelming, and we were able to see all the highlights while still building in time for other activities.

This trip gave us an incredible glimpse of Costa Rica. We experienced cities, mountains, beaches and farms all in one short week. Our guide Leo was outstanding and his knowledge of Costa Rican birds, animals, plants, culture, and history were so valuable to our experience. He absolutely went the extra mile to make sure we had the best time and got everything we wanted out of the trip.

This was one of the best trips i’ve ever taken. The comfortable private vans made traveling easy, and we saw so many animals that i would have definitely not seen if it were not for our local guide Leo. The activities were so unique (for ex. Ziplining and homestay) and this trip was just so much fun. I’m in my late 20’s early 30’s so i wasnt sure what the ages would be, but there were people my age. Since i had such an amazing experience i’m going to book another with intrepid

This was the most amazing trip. So well organised and thought through. Every element was just perfect. Our Guide Pedro (&Kenneth) were just the best. Their knowledge patience and organisation superb.

Fantastic tour with Raquel, a great guide. We were immersed in the community and wildlife of beautiful Costa Rica.

We had an amazing time in Costa Rica. The locations were beautiful and the included activities were enjoyable and ensured that we saw incredible wildlife and experienced the culture of Costa Rica. Particular highlights included the homestay, the cloud forest and the beach at Manuel Antonio. Our tour guide Raquel was excellent - very informative and made sure that everyone got to do and experience what they wanted. Her recommendations for activities, places to visit and eat were great too. I highly recommend this trip!

¡Pura vida! Costa Rica is a must see & experience. Beautiful country & people.

The Costa Rice Experience was incredible - its a beautiful country, full of rich culture and food. I really enjoyed that there were so many different options we could choose from, whether it was with the whole group or separately. Also, our tour guide, Marvin, was super cool and knowledgeable. I cannot recommend this trip enough.

This trip goes through several parts of Costa Rica, showing off the country's diversity. The included and add on optional activities were excellent, and our guide, Marvin, was amazing. Would highly recommend this trip. The homestay was a definite highlight, and something you can't really do travelling on your own.

My second intrepid tour and I have to give it to them for their guides, thoughtful itineraries and care for the environment.

We travelled to Costa Rica as part of our honeymoon and opted for the nine-day Intrepid group tour which started in the capital, San Jose. Our tour leader, Marvin Jose Lopez was a brilliant tour guide and make our trip very relaxed , memorable and enjoyable. We got to experience a large part of what of Costa Rica has to offer, with the homestay with a family near Santa Rosa de Pocosol, waterfall in La Fortuna and hanging bridges and Zip Lining in Monteverde being some of the highlights. I would definitely recommend the trip to friends and families and will return one day in the future.

An excellent trip, from beginning to end. We got to see amazing places and meet amazing people. Allan Alfaro (our guide) made it unforgettable, he is the best guide I have ever had on a trip and he made us feel like family. It was a big struggle to leave the group we traveled with and this beautiful country behind. Looking forward to booking our next adventure with Intrepid!

I was so impressed with our guide. I hoped for seeing a new place but he was such a great teacher I learned so much that I hadn’t even anticipated

This was my first trip with Intrepid and doubt it will be my last. Overall it was an amazing experience and I quickly fell in love with Costa Rica. Our amazing guide Allan was very knowledgeable and shared really interesting facts & insight into Costa Rica. He also managed to spot an amazing amount of wildlife that we would not have seen otherwise and he was happy to recommend nice places to visit, restaurants etc. In addition, even when we had free time, he was available for any questions & help as required. The included activities were all excellent and I really enjoyed the homestay and spending time with the local community!

Great trip to a great place with a great leader :)

Intrepid introduced me to some of the most amazing people I’ve ever met from all over the world. We became so close-knit and had so much fun together exploring Costa Rica’s beautiful environments and communities. Our group leader was genuine, passionate, and dedicated to us and our experience. It was easy to tell how much he cared for his country and how excited he was to share his culture.

We had a very professional and knowledgeable tour leader on this Costa Rica trip. Ale was also very passionate about her country and made a point to educate us about the history and culture of her country. It was a small group of young and senior travelers but we all got along super well and had a great time!
