Costa Rica is contagious. Irina was always working to make the tour fun, run
smoothly, and meet everyone's expectations; not an easy task." (Terrell S)
"Irina made our experience what it was -- exceptional. She is excellent at what
she does. Very outgoing and extremely well informed, Irina made us all feel
like native Costa Ricans before we left. A truly special individual, you can
tell she loves what she does." (Jennifer R)
"This is truly a lovely, exceptional person! She was remarkably able to connect
to EVERY person in our group so that each of us felt very special. Her quick
wit, warm nature and genuine humility were so appreciated by everyone, and
helped make this such a very memorable experience." (Jerry W)

Javier
"Javier, you were always there for us, making things flow, picnics beyond
description, up late planning (or re-planning) for the next days adventure.
Efforts above and beyond expectation. The final nights movie was an example of
your creativity and understanding. Thank you Javier so much for everything." (Melissa
V)
"Javier's knowledge of the ecology of his country was especially helpful. He
enjoyed explaining his land. I thought that Javier was very involved in the
detailed arrangements of the trip especially the non-biking elements." (Linda D)
"Javi always goes the extra mile to make sure everyone is taken care of. He
worked nights to plan and adjust routes. I appreciated that he would ride with
the slowest rider. He also knows a lot about Costa Rican history and is anxious
to share it with the riders." (Leonard V)
