Guests write about our guide, Jose:

Jose, You were a fantastic guide and thanks to you my Spanish improved. JTP

Jose, We were so lucky to have you as our guide. You are a great driver and we will recommend you and Bill Beard’s to our friends. David

Jose, We could not have asked for more in a tour guide. Lots of fun and memories. Pura Vida! Lindsey

Jose. This is one of the best vacations we have ever had. Costa Rica is beautiful and you are an excellent person and guide. Your friend, Becky

NOTE: Invariably, when we ask our clients what one thing stands out most about their vacation, the reply is "the guide." Guides take the hassle out of travel. They provide education, insight into the host culture, and in many cases a lifetime friendship.
