WE RECOMMEND USING Kathleen Marie Hall to plan your visit to Costa Rica! You will not regret it!!! Pura Vida 🤙🏻

They are amazing and excellent They are amazing and excellent, very thorough very meticulous. They care about you as a client to have the best experience ever.

Awesome experiences Where to start 🤷 DTA makes my travel experiences unforgivable and every single experience is one for the books; from the stress-free planning process to the best destinations and accomodations. My first experience with DTA was amazing that I had to come back for more, and they definitely deliver every time. I really appreciate having a trusting and friendly agency that checks on me every step on the way. I will definitely be scheduling more amazing adventures with DTA since they work with my budget and my preferences. Thank you, DTA.

Absolute Perfection!!! Perfection! I don’t think I can come up with enough positive accolades for just how much we enjoyed our 2-week trip to Costa Rica in April. My husband and I were traveling with another couple and between the 4 of us we have traveled to or lived in almost every country on 6 continents. When I say that Melanie and Kathleen (Dive the Americas) are the absolute best travel planners we’ve ever had, there truly is no higher praise or recommendation. They planned an amazing trip and thought of absolutely everything, varying modes of travel, cultural and wildlife experiences, and even a WhatsApp chat group so that we could contact each other throughout our trip. With all of our travels, we have never had that ease of contact and communication with the travel agents. We visited 4 different areas: Baja del Toro cloud forest, Arenal, Manuel Antonio, and Drake Bay/Osa Peninsula with some sort or tour or activity each day. The hotels/lodges they chose were amazing and vastly different from each other so we received a unique experience at each, but all were similar in that customer service and attention to detail was exceptional. ALL of the tours, which were handpicked by DTA were some of the best that we have ever had. Some of our favorite experiences were 1. Having the gorgeous 100ft sailboat Brisa Elegante all to ourselves for the afternoon of snorkeling and water sports. 2. Amazing wildlife viewings: tapirs, scarlet Macaws, Toucans, Eyelash viper, hundreds of hummingbirds, poison dart frogs 3. Many sloths, but the most precious juvenile 3-toed sloth just outside our door eating his leaves. Our room was in the canopy of the trees eye-level with him. We could have touched him if we wanted to…he was that close! 4. All 4 monkey groups. Howlers waking us up each morning, White-face/Capuchins being sneaky and taking dips in our plunge pool, Squirrel and Spider monkeys swinging in the trees and playing with their babies. 5. And so much more that I could go on and on! I have no doubt that we could blindly trust Melanie and Kathleen to send us on another magical trip with nothing more than a budget, range of dates, and a surprise me with the location…and it would be perfection!

Cost Rica family vacation My husband and I really wanted to bring our 2 young children (1.5 and 3.5 years old) to Costa Rica, as we had fallen in love with the country when we were there years ago. But I had no idea where to begin. Which areas did we want to visit? How would we get around? What were some family friendly activites? Kathleen reached out to me after I had posted in a Costa Rica travel group and got right to work coming up with the most perfect trip for our family. She worked within our budget and booked our transportation, hotels, and daily activities for the Manuel Antonio area. Any time I had a question or concern about something or wanted to change something with our itinerary, she was quick to answer and put my mind at ease. I felt so much better knowing that she was choosing tour companies that she would trust her own family with. Our trip was definitely one to remember! Our hotel was absolutely beautiful and all of the tours that we went on were fantastic. Highly recommend the Brisa Elegante cruise, rainmaker hanging bridges, and full day waterfall tour. I had access to both Kathleen and Melanie via whatsapp during our time in Costa Rica and when we did run into a little hiccup with one of our transfers, they both hopped right on it and quickly got it resolved. Thank you ladies so much for the experience! If you want a stress free way to plan your next amazing, fun filled vacation, definitely book with Dive the Americas!
