I highly recommend Horizontes when booking your vacation to Costa Rica. I have arranged many international vacations, and Horizontes assembled an outstanding itinerary and greatly simplified the process at a small incremental cost. What's more, they provided support over the course of the trip so we never felt that we had to figure things out on our own.

Horizontes, Jose Huertas, worked with me for quite a long time and very patiently to put together a custom two week trip. We were able to reach every destination we wanted, and everywhere we enjoyed the nicest, best natured and patient guides, as well as very well informed. The transfers were very punctual and everything went very smoothly. I realized we only saw a fraction of beautiful Costa Rica, and only hope we can go back and see more!

Based on past reviews I chose Horizontes to prepare my itinerary that included 5 cities throughout Costa Rica - and they did not disappoint. The guides were more than helpful and knowledgeable making the trip very rewarding. The hotels offered clean rooms with marvelous views. The trip overall was a great experience which will rate up there with my favorites.

The trip was more than we imagined! Selections and services by Horizontes were super. Airport pickup was flawless. Grano de Oro was excellent; the superior room delightful. The drivers were always on time, personable, and efficient and transport was modern and comfortable. Dantica Lodge is delightful, the food very good.

We had an amazing trip to Costa Rica. We thoroughly enjoyed experiencing the different areas of your country and it left us wanting to definitely return. The guides were extremely knowledgeable and personable as well as passionate about all the wildlife that we saw or failed to see. The drivers sent to pick us up were always on time. Their vehicles were well maintained. The accommodations were comfortable and the staff were helpful and very welcoming. We ate in the dining rooms at each one. The food and atmosphere were wonderful. All served local beef and fish which is what I want when visiting another country. They have a wonderful country. I hope we can visit again.
