Costa Rica Insider

Alfonso Fernandez

I was born in Costa Rica and have been working in tourism for fifteen years. During the first eight years, I worked as a receptionist at hotels while also studying computer programming in college. I also worked for a few years at a rental car company. When I finished school, I decided to continue working in tourism.

My favorite part of this industry is that I get to act as a window through which visitors see my country. I love being able to embody a wealth of information and share my knowledge with travelers. I have explored all corners of Costa Rica and am equipped with a wide range of experience to share with my clients.

I am married and have three small children. Most of my free time is spent with them, although I also enjoy playing soccer and chess.

My goal is to make your dream trip a reality. I’ll work hard to ensure that you have an unforgettable experience in Costa Rica.

What travelers have said

Alfonso was very helpful and made any and all changes we requested. We even ran into him in La Fortuna. We recognized him from his picture and waved. He waved back with a smile even though we realized he wouldn't have known who we were because he hadn't see our pictures.

I was extremely pleased with what your company offers and will definitely recommend it to anyone going to Costa Rica. I was also surprised and delighted to come across the actual office in La Fortuna when I was visiting there.

Thanks for all your help and for getting back to me in a timely fashion with each of my requests. Sending me the links I needed to complete the purchasing and then sending the confirmations was a huge help. Very thorough and made the whole process a breeze!

Dealing with Anywhere Costa Rica was a pleasure. Alfonso made our reservations and everything was taken care of. I will definitely use this service again and recommend it to our many friends here in Playas Del Coco. The email pay system worked like a charm.

Alfonso did a fantastic job of booking our hotels and tour and clearly explained the procedure about getting the email confirmations and how to pay for the reservations on line. Each time I called back and spoke to Alfonso, he was polite, helpful and courteous. His spoke English very well and was a pleasure to deal with. He was very professional and very knowledgeable. I would ask for him again when I use this service.

Alfonso was probably the most helpful representative for a travel company that I have ever worked with. We spoke over the phone over the course of a week or more and he continued to be helpful, respectful, informative, and friendly throughout the entire process. I have never worked with such a respectful and professional representative before. 5 star performance.
