Coast to Coast

Excellent pre-trip advice from Tenille. The standard and enthusiasm from everyone involved was fantastic. Overall we really enjoyed the trip. Many thanks.

Best parts:   Arenal and Montezuma.

Thank you for organising such a superb trip for us. We all had a tremendous time, which is quite a difficult thing to do when the party consists of teenagers addicted to wi-fi, over the hill adrenaline junkies and photography addicts. All tours and transf

Best parts:   Turtle watching, the canopy walk in Arenal, racoons at Manuel Antonio, the Hummingbird gallery, the hot springs and WIFI at all the hotels was popular with our teenagers!

The shuttlebus company was excellent. We would certainly come back to Geodyssey for future trips in Central America. Thank you.

Best parts:   We loved the whole holiday and we had a thoroughly good time.

Tour was ideal for us. Locations, hotels and activities were great and arrangements all ran smoothly. Many thanks.

Best parts:   Tortuguero, Monteverde. Enjoyed all locations, time spent was ideal given overall length of trip, but if we had longer would take an extra day or two in Monteverde.

Best parts:   We would happily have spent more time everywhere, except San Jose

Tailored to our needs well. Geodyssey staff appear to have very good knowledge of Costa Rican sites, hotels and guides. Well organised.

Best parts:   La selva, San Gerardo de Dota, Carara, Tortuguero was extremely wet for all 2.5 days.

We had a wonderful trip, thank you for arranging it! Sadly, no whales in La Cusinga, which was very nice.

Best parts:   Turtles at tortuguero, eduardo at monteverde, freddy at carara and xandari pacific

We had a brilliant holiday - one of our best ever; adults and children all had a fantastic time and learnt and experienced so much. Our guide, Jorge and driver Christian were both wonderful. Jorge was very professional, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, help

Best parts:   It was all good!! The wildlife was a highlight but equally with the children the activities were great fun. The variety provided by the itinerary was spot on.

We have never before been on a trip so well organised. Despite a hectic three week tour (you could take three months doing this and never be bored) we felt like we could relax from day one. The perfect way to spend our honeymoon. Thank you

Best parts:   Pacuare Lodge, San Gerardo de Dota, Puerto Viejo.

It all ran very smoothly.

Best parts:   Tortuguero was amazing for the wildlife , a real experience. Arenal was such a magical place for me I felt very lucky to be there with such an amazing view of the volcano and I wish I'd had an extra night there. Tamarindo was a lovely place, a real cont

This was one of the best organised tours we have ever done, arrangements were perfect and all excursions/hotels of a high quality. We are interested in seeing more of Latin America and hope to use Geodyssey to do so.

Best parts:   Hiking the volcano in Arenal and hiking in Rincon de la Vieja

Everything was handled with the utmost efficiency and enabled us to get the most out of this, our first visit to Costa Rica. We very much hope it will not be the last

Best parts:   Difficult to say because each place was so different. But we would go back to Tortuguero for the experience and to Arenal for the setting and to Bosque de Paz + Savegre Mountain Hotel because they are project places to stay. And we would like the Bougai

The tour was run very well. All pick-ups on time or early, all drivers of mini-buses very good we always felt safe. All hotels were good, some excellent and all in great locations. We would not hesitate to use you again as this trip was extremely well

Best parts:   Tabacon hot springs, horse riding at Monteverde, boat trips at Tortuguero and the beach near Hotel Cariblue

We would like to congratulate you and the tour company's involved on the excellent way we were escorted round and the service provided at the hotels etc. Everybody we met was very co-operative, informative and helpful.

No nasty surprises. All transport arrangements went smoothly, and all turned up at expected time. We felt the balance between driving, activities and relaxing was perfect and we rate this holiday up there with the best that we've done so so far.

Excellent tour and arrangements.  Very good - everyone very helpful.  If repeating the trip we would have allowed more time for rest days (especially at our age!) but this was down to us not you!

Best parts:   Boat tours although road there was horrendous! Night walk and forest walks were great.

It was an amazing holiday. We were amazed at the efficiency of all the transfers. The hotels were all superb and the staff very friendly. The only improvement would be if we had made it longer. It is going to be difficult to top this holiday! Many than

Best parts:   All of it was amazing! We loved the variety, every day was different and there was plenty to do, plus time for relaxation. A great balance.

Everything worked like clockwork. In general we had a fantastic holiday and would certainly recommend Geodyssey. This is the second time we have travelled with you.

Best parts:   Tango Mar and the Nicoya Peninsula were laid back and restful. The white water rafting and zip lines were fantastic. Could have done with a little more wildlife but that is just your Donald Duck.

This was one of the best holidays we have had. Everything went very smoothly and the voucher system worked well. All the hotels were excellent and all the tours good. Thank you.

We really appreciated the expertise and service throughout.

Best parts:   All was good - we just felt Monteverde Cloudforest was a zip-wire too far for us and we needed some downtime at the beach.

The tour was excellently co-ordinated - all the drivers turned up on time to take me on my next tour or to the next destination. All like clockwork!

Best parts:   I loved all of it, but particularly my time in Sarapiqui for the wildlife and the rafting.

Very well organised by Geodyssey - transfers were excellent with smart, friendly drivers and good vehicles.

Best parts:   We particularly liked Saraoiqui as we didn't find many others who went there. OTS for the wildlife. Sunsets on Playa Potrero.

The holiday was a great success. Everything that was supposed to happen worked perfectly. From the first guy waiting for us at the airport in San Jose to the drop off at the end.

We really enjoyed ourselves and have some wonderful memories.

Best parts:   Pacuare - we were really sad to leave.

To sum it up, the trip was excellent. We didn’t have any major problems in Costa Rica. We saw lots of wild animals, some of them rare. Before the trip we already had big expectations but I can say that they were surpassed. The quality of the arrangements

The tour was very good. Thank you!

Everything ran beautifully. We couldn't better it.

Overall, we had a fabulous time!

Very impressed with our first vacation with Geodyssey.

Best parts:   Tortuguero and the stay in Tamarindo (great hotel staff).

We loved the country and all the tours you picked for us. Thank you for your very efficient organisation, we wouldn't have been able to plan such a tour for ourselves. Many thanks.

It is always a little worrying travelling with a new company especially on a tailormade itinerary, but we had a fantastic time. Every eventuality was covered, from transfers to tours. Tenille put together everything we wanted to cover for our budget with

Best parts:   A wonderful holiday overall, could not pick a favourite, but would definitely return if we could to Osa Peninsula and San Gerardo de Dota.

We would strongly recommend your company and travel with you again. Well run tour and had a great holiday. Thank you.

The organisation of the tour was good and I liked having a printed out itinerary. The whole tour was amazing, especially the rainforest. It was the best holiday ever and I wish I could go back. Thanks for your help in arranging for our lost lugguage to b
