Hello. I'm Matt, your local expert for Costa Rica

I’m Matt, a Costa Rica travel specialist originally from the UK. I arrived in my early 30s during a serious case of wanderlust and quickly fell in love with the country-its people, wildlife, and “pura vida” spirit. 18 years later, I’m still here, now married, and I have lived in 5 different regions. I’ve worked across the tourism industry and also helped plan trips for friends and their networks. I’ve explored extensively and continue discovering new places. My drive is always to share my passion and knowledge of this incredible country, helping you create a trip that feels personal, memorable, and truly special. Local knowledge, genuine care, and trips designed around you.
