Don’t worry; we have you covered with most of the meals.
All of them are tasty (with a typical and international fusion flavor) and big enough to satisfy anybody. We include all breakfasts, many lunches, and dinners, plus snacks on the way. Aligned with our values, we only use local restaurants to build stronger connections with our communities, support the local economy (to keep the income locally) and avoid sizeable international chain brands.
We also make tailor-made menus, so if you have any special dietary needs, don’t worry. Contact us for more info.
Stay warm, safe, and comfortable in locally own boutique hotels, villas/bungalows, and depending on your expedition, sometimes we’ll camp or glamping.

On top of that and aligned with our values, we only use local Hotels to build stronger connections with our communities and support the local economy (to keep the income locally). We avoid using large international chain brands.

The not described meals, all drinks at the restaurants, and personal expenses of any kind. Tips (tour leader, local guides, driver, etc.) we suggest between $ 15-20.00 per day and $ 5-10.00 for the bus driver.
An unhurried and well-paced itinerary is our goal; remember, you are on vacation!
Journey days begin and end at reasonable hours and include a selected wide range of unique activities, frequent stops, and plenty of surprises on the way. While the occasional early morning departure is necessary, we do our best to ensure a leisurely vacation.
Travel with comfort only on authorized touristic micro-bus, mini-van, all-terrain 4×4 vehicles and explore on a safe and easy going way all the Central American hottest spots with plenty of stops along the way.
The different Central American destinations are not that big (compared to other countries) so most of our rides vary between two and three hours, and the longest ones would be around six to seven.
As we are traveling via coach, each traveler is allowed to bring one large pack or suitcase weighing no more than 35kg, as well as a couple of day packs/carry-on bags.
Yes, it’s certainly advisable.
Throughout your journey, you won’t need much spending money (as the trip is comprehensively covered), but you may require money for some occasional meals (depending on the itinerary you choose and for all the drinks) and just in case you want to buy some amazing handicrafts or souvenirs (and most likely yes).
Important to mention that in all our proposed destinations dollars are accepted, and it is not usually the same with the euro or other currencies.
We recommend that all travelers coming from Europe bring their debit cards and withdraw the local currency at ATMs.
Be prepared for the tropics and pack multiple changes of clothes. Clothing for warm and hot weather during the day: two pairs of pants, two pairs of shorts, three changes of shirts, a rain poncho, a swimsuit, and a sweater or jacket to wear at night. Walking shoes, hiking boots, sneakers, and sandals are all acceptable.
Quick-dry clothing (especially a pair of convertible pants that zip at the knee to convert into shorts) is recommended for your visit to the tropical areas.
Always bring a towel, and please don’t forget sunblock, bug spray, a flashlight, a sun hat, a lightweight raincoat or poncho, anti-diarrheal medicine, and wet wipes.
Travel with us in small groups. The average group size (depending on the expedition) is between 08 – 13 passengers, and we can make it happen (some of them) starting with a minimum of 02 – 04 passengers (because we really do sophisticated trips).
No, not at all! Traveling solo is the best way to meet like-minded people and make new friends along the way. Contact us for our scheduled collective group departures.
If you feel that a medical condition may affect your trip in any way, please let us know when purchasing your expedition ticket. We reserve the right to deny bookings if we feel we cannot accommodate your condition on any given tour. But most likely, we will be able to.

The cancelation of your services can happen at any time and it needs to be done by the person who made the payment. The sooner we know about it, the better for everyone.
In these times we are very flexible like most of our suppliers, however; not all decisions are in our hands and there may be some administrative charges (depending on when we get the formal news that you won’t be able to come).
Again we repeat, when you know that you will not be able to travel, contact us as soon as possible.
Travel canceling due to Covid-19 issues: A full credit towards booking another journey from us will be issued if the tour is canceled when there is full border closure due to Corona travel restrictions. We recommend buying your own travel insurance for coverage of cancellations within 30 days of the tour commencing for reasons other than a full tour cancellation.
You don’t need to tip the local staff (because it’s already covered in your price), however, tipping your tour leader is at your discretion (and it’s going to be much appreciated), especially after you witness their dedication, passion and professionalism.
