Harold Montero
Trip Designer
Greetings, amigo/amiga! I'm Harold, a native of Guapiles, Costa Rica. I've been working in tourism for over 15 years, and before my time at Anywhere, I was a rainforest guide. I love helping people experience beautiful places in my country, as well as Panama, where I'm also an expert travel consultant. It makes me happy to live in and visit countries that so many people want to visit.
My wife and I have two children, and we love traveling. I also enjoy playing soccer, and watching TV shows that involve crime, sports, or nature — that last one must be why I'm always spending time with my family outdoors.
I've gone hiking in Corcovado National Park, and even made it to the summit of the Rincón de la Vieja Volcano. When I find myself in Panama, my favorited places to visit are Boquete and Bocas del Toro — a highland city and a surfing mecca (respectively). I can't wait to use my outdoor experience to help you plan your own Costa Rican or Panamanian adventure vacation!

What travelers have said
Harold provided a personal experience for us. I knew little of what to do in Costa Rica. Harold gave us the opportunity to select from the various activities and events and mad sure we had the best times to go. I'll recommend Harold and Anywhere.

Harold was truly a lifesaver. He answered all of my questions, gave great advice, and responded so fast to all of my emails. He was seriously so great to work with and I would recommend him to anyone. Thank you so much, Harold!!

Harold was a true life (and trip) saver. From my very first interaction with him Harold was informative, friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Harold worked patiently and with great consideration as we revised our plans a few times due to flight and internet issues. 5 starts without reservation. Thank you Harold!!
Joe L.
Harold did a great job helping us with planning. He was responsive and obliged us with our repeated requests for changes, especially in the beginning. Thanks Harold! We had a wonderful vacation and reunion!

Harold was and is awesome. Initial booking of 3 different rides was easy. I was skeptical at first using a service in a country I am not familiar with but you put my mind at ease. All 3 different drivers where on time and engaging - making the rides informative and enjoyable.

Harold was absolutely terrific!!!! Very easy to work with. Always answered my questions in a very timely manner. We could not be happier with the level of service Harold provided. I highly recommend him. He is an asset to Anywhere.

A Trip We Will Always Remember
We thought it was going to be a fun and relaxing honeymoon, but our trip to Costa Rica was much more substantial than that. It was amazing talking to the local Costa Ricans. The overall pace of life is calmer. There is so much more respect in Costa Rica. Respect for each other, respect for the environment, the animals, and life in general. We learned a lot on our trip, and can not wait to return. We highly recommend Costa Rica. Pura Vida!
