Explornatura did an EXCELLENT job in organizing our trip to Costa Rica in March/April!! Our complicated logistics went like clockwork, not a single glitch. From San Jose to white water rafting near Turrialba, Caribbean Coast, Osa Peninsula and Cerro de la Muerte Cloud forest to see the Resplendent Quetzal, Explornatura did a perfect job of organizing and planning. Thanks to... More

A friend told me about Massi, who was extemely helpful. Massi extended his service to help guide me to a fantastic hotel less than a block away from his office. Massi was able to provide an excellent experience. After the Canyoning we ate a delicious meal with the friendly guides in a remote cafeteria-style eating area overlooking a beautiful landscape....

We got a disk of 100 great pictures that look amazing and... More

We were extremely happy with all the arrangements this company made for us. The Kayak and Rafting guys were not only knowledagble, capable, and careful, they were a blast. We loved the fact that our kayaking experience was an adventure to ourselves. We loved the fact that our rafting adventure was also in a small group. The lunches were fantastic,... More

The activity itself was well planned and good fun. What was more impressive was the lengths the staff went to sort out the logistics in getting there and save me money in the process.

I went canyoning and zip-lineing with Explornatura and the guides were great - wanting to make sure everyone had a great time but also focused on safety. They also went out of their way to provide information and help in setting up another tour and getting to my hotel after the excursion.
