Paola Castro
Hi my name is Paola. I am Costa Rican by birth, since I was little I felt a great interest in nature and my country, so I started a career in tourism. I have 14 years of experience, during my first years I worked as a tour guide where I was able to share my passion for Costa Rica with different travelers, but also where I was able to learn about the very diverse tourism product of the country. I have been working in travel agencies for 9 years and it was here that I found a great passion for designing itineraries for adventurous travelers, groups of friends, honeymooners or families. It will be a great pleasure for me to help you plan your dream vacation in Costa Rica. See you soon.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"I specialize 100% in Costa Rica, I like to be in constant movement, learning and knowing new products to know what to offer according to each taste of the different people who trust me to be their local expert. So no matter if you are traveling with your family, with a group of friends, alone or with your better half, I will gladly help you create that perfect trip to Costa Rica."
How did you get involved in travel?
"I think it all started when I was little, my curiosity to always go beyond what is known, the desire to explore and get to know places, people, cultures, is something that feeds my soul and makes me happy. So I just followed my instinct."
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"Sharing just one is very difficult. But I share my most recent and incredible experience. Sleeping in a tree house inside the tropical forest in a remote area of Costa Rica, was not only sleeping at 18 meters high, it was the feeling of being immersed in nature, with the monkeys passing so close, the birds perched on the branches, impressive views, I felt like another inhabitant of the forest."
