The incredible customer service of Avispas Adventures began before we arrived in Costa Rica. Amy was diligent in returning emails and phonecalls (not always an easy task from Costa Rica). My family (me, my husband and three kids, 12, 14, 15) loved our adventure tours which included ziplining, horseback riding, hiking and a trip to mud baths (don't miss the... more

My husband and I vacationed in the Guancaste province of Costa Rica from 10/17/2009 - 10/24/2009. This was our first, but definitely not our last, trip there. I had researched tour companies prior to our arrival and based on the reviews, booked all our tours as well as transportation to and from the airport with Avispas Adventures. Everything was even... more

My wife and I recently spent our honeymoon at the Occidental Grand Papagayo resort October 12-19th.

I brought 20 friends to Costa Rica to celebrate a special birthday. The group wanted to experience a little bit of Authentic Costa Rica, while staying away from the crowds of American tourists attempting to do the same. We were lucky to have found Amy from Avispas Adventures to help us out. What can I say? She and her staff... more

After reading the glowing reviews regarding Avispa, we were excited about dealing with them for all our hotel and tour needs when visiting Costa Rica. I sent approximately 1 dozen e-mails to them from three different e-mail accounts, with no reply over a four week period. I called twice to Costa Rica and was able to speak to Amy. She... more

We just returned from an eight day trip to Costa Rica that started with the Miravalles Volcano Adventure from Avispa Adventures. Our guide Mario was knowledgeable and fun and answered all our questions about the country. In one day, we did it all: zip lines, local food, hiking, horseback riding, and a fascinating volcano visit including a mud bath! Later... more

We just got back from our 2nd trip to Costa Rica....WE LOVE IT! (We never go back to the same place twice but we have never had a family vacation as GREAT as we did in Costa Rica!) The highlight of our trip was Amy from Avispa's Adventures. (and she is the real reason we were so quick to go... more
