    Everything was well planned, and it and the activities were fantastic with the exception of horseback riding. We did this in Monte Verde at a ranch where the horses had to walk on uneven rock roads. Was uncomfortable for the riders as well I would suggest replacing horseback riding with another activity in Monte Verde.

    The Raft, Hike and Explore Costa Rica tour was exactly as described, with great adventures and reasonable accommodations at all stops. Transportation was often comfortable and timely, often early for pickups. Our GWA contact, Marianna, was always responsive to our questions and concerns, and adjusted the tour as requested (for example, by booking us on a less-intense section river for rafting). She and others from GWA were also available with ease through WhatsApp during the tour to give us updates as needed. Our final transport/taxi service was very comfortable, and the driver was a extremely informative, which was a perfect way to end the trip.
