Meg and Jairo provide the local experience seasoned travelers are looking for, whether you are a backpacker or have high-end preferences. From front to back, Meg will take care of you like a family member and put you in the hands of the nicest, most professional people for anything you need - accommodations, transportation, adventure activities, local food and more.
Anything I needed help with, Meg was there as if she was traveling with me the whole time. It was such a beautiful “home away from home” experience. Couldn’t ask for more.

What can I say about CR Surf Trip? For my girlfriend and I, this has been the most memorable and adventurous out-of-state trip we've shared. Meg and her team truly "knocked it out of the park" when taking into consideration all of our interests and creating a vacation schedule that had everything from repelling down waterfalls to relaxing on the beautiful beaches of Samara. (With my personal favorite being the surf lesson set up by Meg and her team).
If I had attempted to book a trip to Costa Rica on my own it would've fell tremendously short compared to the experience I had with CR Surf Trip. If you're interested in exploring this beautiful gem of a Country, then CR Surf Trip is a no brainer for all of your planning!
