"Our guide was a lot of fun and very knowledgeable about everything Costa Rican. He was always at the service of the group. The driver was also very nice and helpful and a terrific driver too. The program was excellent and I had lifetime experiences while on the tour. Going through the Monteverde Cloud Forest and seeing the male and female Resplendent Quetzal and riding the skytram the same day was a memory I'll enjoy all my life. The route taken and the points of interest we were shown were what I came to Costa Rica for. All of the places I stayed were very clean and the staff was excellent. This was the best trip I've ever had. Everything cooperated including the weather and wildlife. I hope to travel with Amerika Venture again soon!"
