Our trip was absolutely amazing, everything we wanted, plus everything we didn't know we wanted! My friend and I truly loved this Costa Rica vacation.
Experiencing Costa Rica on a best friend getaway!
My friend and I were looking to experience all that Costa Rica had to offer! We wanted to backpack, explore nature, do some adventurous activities, and end the trip with a little relaxation before we headed home. Anywhere planned the perfect getaway from Arenal to Monteverde to Tamarindo. Booking with Anywhere was the best decision we made. Everything was catered to our interests and taken care of. The easiest adventure I've been on.
Our favorite part of the adventure…
Our favorite part of the trip was canyoning in Monteverde. It was an amazing tour! We were a smaller group, so it felt like a private tour and the guides were hilarious. We rappelled down SIX different waterfalls — each an exhilarating experience. We felt safe the whole time with the guides constantly checking on our harnesses and showing us the ropes (excuse the pun) on every trip.
Our travel dreams delivered by Anywhere…
We absolutely loved Mountain Faro Hotel, a charming little B&B. They were so accommodating, and the rooms were very clean and nice. Our trip was absolutely amazing — everything we wanted, plus everything we didn't know we wanted! We saw so much of the country and did so many activities and I wasn't stressed once about transportation or paying, it was all taken care of thanks to Anywhere. I will definitely be using Anywhere any chance I get.
