Costa Rica Tour Companies: Everyone’s “The Best”

Spend five minutes online searching for Costa Rica tour companies, and you’ll quickly realize one thing: apparently, everyone is the best. The best guides. The best reviews. The best jungle experience you’ll ever have in your life. Oh, and don’t forget – the best prices

Best. Best. Best.
But no one really says… according to what?

Like, is there a secret jungle jury handing out awards I wasn’t invited to? Or are we all just out here tossing around “best” like it’s a reusable buzzword?

Best Costa Rica Tour Companies

Look—I could tell you we’re the best Costa Rica tour company too. But that would be a bit like when my grandma used to say I was the most handsome boy in the world. Sweet, heartwarming, possibly a little biased. Definitely not peer-reviewed.

And let’s be honest—Grandma also thought instant coffee was gourmet, so maybe we don’t let her set the industry standards.

So… Are All Tour Companies the Same?

Nope. Not even close.

There are the big corporate-style outfits with fleets of buses and matching shirts.

There are the sketchy ones that only exist on WhatsApp and promise you “private volcano access” for $30.

And then there are folks like me—small, local, hands-on. We don’t do mass tourism. We don’t do jungle karaoke on the bus. But we do work our butts off to make sure you have an incredible time.

We design Costa Rica guided tours that actually feel human. Real guides. Real communication. Real effort.

We show up. We check your transport. We tell you where the bathroom is before the hike starts (you’re welcome). We answer emails faster than your cousin replies to birthday wishes.

But Are You Perfect?

Heh. No.

We’re not the company that pretends nothing ever goes wrong. Because things go wrong. This is Costa Rica. We have rain, mudslides, monkeys with sticky fingers, and bus drivers who occasionally vanish like ghosts.

Sometimes the boat arrives late.
And sometimes the sloth you were promised is having a nap no one can interrupt.
Or even, sometimes your zipline guide gets food poisoning and his brother (who’s somehow even better) steps in last minute.

And that’s where it really matters who your tour company is.
Because anyone can sell you a tour when everything goes according to plan.
But when stuff hits the fan? That’s when you want a team who picks up the phone, shows up, fixes the issue, and throws in a cold coconut water to make it right.
