Costa Rica Nightmare I'll be surprised if they post this but here it goes. Don't book Smartours Costa Rica tour. They don't use regular buses. Large mini vans. The bus has no bathroom, packed in like sardines, no electrical outlets, no water ever offered, no wifi and luggage piled up the back on the seats so people have to use the fold out ones going up and down the middle of the mini bus. Luggage in the back actually came crashing down on the people in the back. Huge heavy bags. I've done two other tours in Costa Rica with other companies and none of this happened. Hotels with no air, hot water, or tv's. Yes we were in lodges in the jungle but other hotels in these areas had all of the above. Even had bare wires in one of the bathrooms on top of the shower head to heat the water. One hotel had no bar or restaurant. Had to take a taxi to get food. They advertise first class hotels and lodges. This must be a joke. There were 18 of us on this tour. 5 people were injured in one way or another from horrible travel conditions. Three needed immediate medical attention when they got home. Will never use Smartours again. We have in the past but I wouldn't take the chance of being tortured while on vacation ever again. We were so glad to get home.
