Pura Vida!

This was a once in a lifetime trip for our group of friends to be able to take together and using Serendipity Adventures with the help of Bryan Leon made our trip the best we all have ever experienced.

Bryan was very helpful and quick to respond to all of our questions and concerns. And the whole team at Serenity Adventures were very attentive and helped to fix any issues we had.

We did a 7 day tour through multiple cities in Costa Rica with 1-2 excursions almost every day. We were able to enjoy all our transports, meals, and excursions set up by the company without any issues. And if we did have any problems, we were easily able to contact the travel agency at any time.

Overall, this trip was wonderful for each and every one of us because we were able to use Bryan’s help to customize each day to our liking from meal accommodations, to different hotels and excursions that better suited our wants and needs.

I would highly recommend using Serendipity Adventures for your next Costa Rica trip for the best experience possible!

This was one of the best all inclusive resorts we have ever stayed at. The beach front property was perfect and the water was amazing. The food and drinks here were the best I have had in a resort type setting. They whole staff was very accommodating and everyone was so attentive and helpful.

This was a thrilling experience, especially for those who had never done it before. The tour guides were very helpful and instilled confidence in everyone. The adventure included rappelling down waterfalls and mountains, as well as ziplining. The whitewater rafting was more on the mellow side, which was perfect for me. The guides were great, and the two different tour companies communicated well to ensure a smooth transition between activities.

This was a fun experience, but we felt rushed toward the end due to having to go on a guided night tour immediately after. We could have used an extra 30-40 minutes at the coffee farm to fully enjoy the experience.

This tour was interesting and full of bugs and critters. We saw snakes, tarantulas, and other creatures. It was a unique experience, but not for those who are squeamish around bugs.

This was a nice hike, but it felt repetitive after the previous day's tour. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable, and we saw many animals like birds, monkeys.
