Dennis Salas

Hi! My name is Dennis Salas, sales expert of Costa Rica and a culture and nature lover person who is always looking for interesting things to do and nice places to visit. That is basically the main reason why I would like to help you plaining your trip so that you can experience different adventures in Costa Rica.
I consider myself a very patient and empathic person, and when planning vacations for future travelers I always attempt to put on their shoes and discover what their expectations are to get the best for their experience.
I personally love to be surrounded by nature and I am big fan of riding bike, so when I combine both activities I feel more than pleased. Listening to music is also one of my passions.
Thank you very much for giving the opportunity to help you create new experiences.

What places and activities do you specialize in?

"I am specialized in Costa Rica and feel very attracted to work with families, couples, honeymooners and groups that are looking to have adventures and cultural experiences."

How did you get involved in travel?

"When I was a little kid I remember myself watching TV documentals about nature and wildlife all over the world and always wondered how the traveling business would work. I started to notice that people travels for many different reasons and that they would do their best to travel and live exciting and different experiences different to the ones they have in their home country. My passion for travel business started right there and since then I have worked helping people planning their vacations. I love to be part of the experiences of the visitors in Costa Rica"

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"One of the best travel experiences I will never forget is a trip that I planned with some friends to the Caribbean side of Costa Rica. We had the amazing experience of navigating with local indigenous people in a wooden-made boat through the mountains of Talamanca. Once we arrived to the village we enjoyed the food that they prepared for us, we played with the local kids and they even showed us some amazing trekking trails where to see the diversity of the place. The day after, we went to Puerto Viejo and Cahuita to enjoy the beaches and surroundings of the area."

I was impressed with the service and speed of Dennis in setting up my perfect honeymoon vacation. We planned a city (San Jose), mountain (Monteverde), and beach (Uvita) in Costa Rica and all went down without a hitch. The hotels that Dennis selected were perfect and customer-service oriented. The Grano de Oro Hotel (San Jose) was professional, quiet, and accommodating. The complimentary breakfast (casado) was delicious, along with a special dinner at the same restaurant.

I was impressed with the service and speed of Dennis in setting up my perfect honeymoon vacation. We planned a city (San Jose), mountain (Monteverde), and beach (Uvita) in Costa Rica and all went down without a hitch. The hotels that Dennis selected were perfect and customer-service oriented. The Grano de Oro Hotel (San Jose) was professional, quiet, and accommodating. The complimentary breakfast (casado) was delicious, along with a special dinner at the same restaurant. The El Establo Hotel (Monteverde) was also very organized. The Monteverde hotel scheduled us for an amazing night walk, and a wondrous hanging bridge hike. The private transfer drivers to each location were on-time and friendly. The biggest hangup to the vacation was getting there--we had a 10+ hour delay for our flight out of the U.S. Fortunately, the Whatsapp emergency line for GWA was fast, responsive, and accommodating. Dennis, Karla, and Mariana were all wonderful to help us keep on-schedule and in-contact with our hotels/drivers.

Through Bahia Aventuras, we snorkeled off the Cano island. We saw sea turtles, reef sharks, and even a pair of humpback whales!

All our accommodations met or exceeded our expectations, and the transfers were all comfortable. Shout out to Philippe from GWA for driving us some long distances but maintaining his friendliness and calm the whole time. I will definitely be recommending KimKim to friends for its ease and reliability and GWA for their professionalism and expertise in Costa Rica. Beautiful country and wonderful memories- Pura Vida!
