We are a small Tour Company founded by biologists. Our passion is to share the wonder of Costa Rica in the most authentic and sustainable way possible. For the big agencies, this goal is impossible due to their size. Our small and specialized team works hard every day to fulfill this sustainability goal, this is something that for sure you are going to notice when you travel with us.

Hi Pete,
I wanted to reach out personally after seeing your review regarding the airport transfer.
First of all, I’m very sorry about the delay. We had no knowledge that there had been an issue with your pickup until we saw your review, so we immediately contacted the driver to understand what had happened.
We learned that, while he was on his way to the airport, his vehicle unexpectedly failed to start. He arranged for another driver to pick you up so that the transfer could still take place. Unfortunately, he did not inform us about the situation or the change of driver at the time.
I want to be clear that I’m not sharing this as an excuse or to shift responsibility to the driver. You booked the transportation through Oropopo, and therefore it was our responsibility to make sure the service went as planned and that you were properly informed if anything changed.
Had we known what was happening, we could have communicated with you immediately and helped manage the situation. We are addressing this internally with our transportation provider so that any unexpected delay, vehicle issue, or driver change is reported to us immediately in the future.
I also want to thank you for mentioning it in your review. Without your feedback, we would not have known that this had happened, and it gave us the opportunity to identify something in our process that needed to be corrected.
We truly appreciate the trust you placed in us during your time in Costa Rica, and I’m sorry that this part of your experience did not meet the standard we want to provide.
Warm regards,
Charly

Trip well organised and kept us informed of arrangements. The guide was great and spent time with us ro make sure we had as many opportunities as we could to see the sloths!
It was also interesting to learn about the leaf ants and the bees but would have hoped to see some other wildlife or nature too.
But great to see so many sloths 🦥!! Thank you
Our family of 8 had a great time, including toddler and baby- Cello was a great guide, Knowledgeable, courteous, we learned interesting facts about Costa Rica - definitely recommend Oropopo Experience excursions !
Santiago was an amazing guide. Just a super sharp young man and biologist who was very knowledgeable and passionate. About his work and sharing what he knew. We very much enjoyed our tour of the Irazú volcano and seeing some of the beautiful countryside of Costa Rica. We cannot recommend Santiago or Oropopo enough!
Great experience to walk around Avellanas and really see nature that we were missing all along. Very knowledgeable guide made it interesting and engaging to appreciate our world.
