Travel Review: Costa Rica Vacation, Monteverde, San Jose, Arenal, Wildlife, Culture

Our trip was fantastic; from the moment we landed, met our driver and ventured out into the paradise, called Costa Rica. All hotel accommodations proved to exceed our expectations, however, at the hotel in Monteverde staff made us feel right at home. We felt so happy there that our departure filled us with sadness. All tours were well chosen and provided us with the opportunity to see amazing flora and fauna (including the Quetzal). Nature tour guides were professional, kind, patient, helpful, and it was clear that they love their job! Their professionalism and dedication to excellence should serve as example for people working in the tourism industry in the US! In summery, Ticos' love for their beautiful country and sharing it with such charm with (sometimes not so pleasant) tourists, is heartwarming. encouraging, and will contribute to make our trip unforgettable. Lastly, I would like to mention that our travel agent gave us a very special welcome by receiving us personally at the airport upon our arrival and called to check in before departure - service " a la Tico".
