Stunning adventure day!

“Rodrigo designed a perfect adventure for my group of 10 in Playa Flamingo. He had a plan and was flexible as it progressed — a great coffee stop on the way, an excellent restaurant on the way back, even pulling over so we could see a beautiful young coral snake. He wove in information about flora, fauna, waterfalls and volcanoes along the hike.”

Rodrigo is your perfect guide

“If you are looking for a perfect guide, Rodrigo is your man. He knows all the curiosities of his country — the fauna, the flora, the history and the present — and stops at local restaurants so you can dive into the culinary culture. A prudent driver who gives you a lot of security and keeps his van impeccable.”

Excellent tour guide

“Rodrigo is awesome. He speaks fluent English for those that don't know Spanish. He knows all about local culture, vegetation and wildlife. Excellent, safe driver with a nice clean van. Definitely recommend him for any of your transportation or tour needs in Costa Rica!”
