Reviews of Costa Rica Travel Market (Travel Agency)

Roger Masse

Monica McIntyre of Costa Rica Travel Market planned a 5-day "racecation" (bike race and vacation) for us around the RINCON DE LA VIEJA CHALLENGE mountain bike race. Everything was great... no bad surprises, only good ones! Would definitely use Costa Rica Travel Market again for travel to Costa Rica.

My experience in Costa Rica was awesome: great beaches, fantastic hotels, wild animals and an amazing rainforest. Anyway, the smartest decision was to trust Costa Rica Travel Market the entire trip: accommodations, transfers, excursions, tips for places and restaurant, everything was so PERFECT! CRTM is a must if you want to see the best version of Costa Rica!

We have worked with Costa Rica Travel Market and Monica twice in the last 3 years (Monica was referred to us by some friends in New York). We just returned from our second trip in which she coordinated the WHOLE vacation for 18 people for my parents' 50th Anniversary. She was very knowledgeable and quick to answer any questions we had throughout the process and managed to make everyone, from age 2 - 70, happy. She was even readily available while we were in Costa Rica and put us in contact with all the right people to schedule fun things to do. I have recommended Costa Rica and Monica to anyone I know who is looking for an unforgettable vacation. Just an amazing experience from the beginning to end! Thank you Monica!

We used Costa Rica Travel Market to book our entire trip for a week in CR. We just provided a few parameters and the trip was completely planned for us... from flights to rental car to hotels to activities. Every single thing went as described and planned and we had a wonderful trip. We will definitely being going back and we will use Costa Rica Travel Market to book our trip.

Monica's excellent knowledge of Costa Rica helped us find the perfect place for the vacation we were looking for. We were also impressed with the professionalism of the local partners she chose for transportation and accommodation once we were there. Based on our experience I would definitely use Costa Rica Travel Market in the future because I know that Monica will take care of all the details so I don't have to worry about a thing!

I highly recommend using Costa Rica Travel Market. We had the best time on our vacation in Costa Rica! We got to zip line, tube, rock climb, repel, white water raft, we went horse back riding, kayaking and on a volcano hike! It was awesome because we went on the volcano hike and the Arenal Volcano was clear that day! We got so lucky. We saw sloths, toucans, monkeys and iguanas. Our rooms were great, the food was great and the people were amazing! Monica did an excellent job booking our trip. Everything went smoothly, the shuttles were all on time, the guides were so nice and helpful, and we had beautiful views from our rooms. We also got engaged on our trip and Monica sent us a bottle of champagne and a basket of fruit with a sweet card congratulating us! Monica also was great to get in touch with during the planning of our trip and even while we were on vacation. She was always responding in a timely manner and there if I needed her. If anyone is looking into visiting Costa Rica I highly recommend you using the Costa Rica Travel Market and Monica will go above and beyond to make your trip great and memorable. I definitely want to go back!

If you are thinking about a trip to Costa Rica, use this travel service. Monica helped me build a trip for my wife and I in celebration of her 40th. I tried to start the process on my own and quickly became overwhelmed with the options. Monica took the time to understand what type of trip that we wanted and she delivered 100% on an incredible vacation. In order to make the trip special for my wife, I asked TONS of questions and Monica answered them all. She handled all of our reservations including the rental car and 3 separate hotels, and everything went without a hitch. Monica also recommended activities, developed an itinerary for us, and helped us choose air travel options. This was without a doubt the easiest travel planning I have ever experienced. Monica is amazing and she truly knows her stuff. Give her a call!!!

This is quite an easy review to write given my amazing experience with Costa Rica Travel Market, and Monica in particular. My boyfriend and I were traveling to Costa Rica for our first time and I was given the "trip planning" task. I tried to do some on my own then realized I needed help from someone who knew the area and knew the prices. Monica helped me in countless ways and I cannot be grateful enough. She was prompt in responding to my 100 questions and was able to give us the best option for our budget. If you are planning a trip to Costa Rica go through this company, it was well worth it. I cannot stress enough how easy Monica made my trip. It was a success and my boyfriend was very impressed! Thank you again. XOXO

Amazing trip! Loved loved loved CR! Hotel Punta Islita was fantastic. Isolated, romantic and relaxing, but with all of the necessary amenities. And, the staff was wonderful. Just as important, getting there and back was seamless, as our travel agent took care of everything from start to finish. Easiest planned trip I've ever taken!
