What people are saying

One conversation with Christa saved me so many hours combing through online reviews and travel sites. I don’t have to second guess my plans or worry if we are doing the right amount of adventuring versus relaxing. All of her advice is with kids in mind because she has first-hand experience traveling with her kids just about everywhere in Costa Rica. Her knowledge is far above and beyond what a typical travel agent can offer.

-Janet, mom of twins

Working with Christa was the key to unlocking Costa Rica. From the very beginning of our work together I felt like she was really wanting the best for my family. She knows her stuff about Costa Rica and meeting with her made our trip 10x better. Here is my recommendation. Take a call with her, plan your trip from what she gives you, and then meet with her again to go over it. That second call was so valuable.

Chad, kids aged 9 and 11

I discovered Christa’s website while trying to plan a family trip to Costa Rica that included a 10-month-old baby; feeling overwhelmed by the enormous amount of information online. I booked a 30-minute Zoom call with Christa who provided us with numerous suggestions for locations and activities that we used to create a wonderful 9 days in Costa Rica as well as reassurance and guidance about the safety of traveling there with small children.

-Liz, Grandmother

We had a wonderful vacation in Costa Rica. You gave such amazing recommendations and cultural tips for navigating the country. Thank you again!

-Julie, mom of a 16 month old
