What’s the best canopy tour in Costa Rica?

We are currently looking at three different companies.

The Original Canopy Tour

Sky Trek

Selvatura Park

Does anybody have anything to say about any of these tours? Can you compare them and say which would be the best?

Thanks so much!

The tours you mentioned are good but the best Canopy I have been on in Costa Rica is in Rincon de la Vieja at a place called Hacienda Guachipelin. They have a one day tour you can take and do the Canyon (Canopy) Tour, white water tubing, hiking in the National Park, horseback riding and more for one price. I highly recommend this tour or the hotel for that matter.

Has anyone recently gone on a Caravan tour to Costa Rica?

I’d like to know about the hotels they select and if they have a " sucide Shower " and did they find any scorpions in their hotel?
I know all about the sucide showers and I wanted to know if the hotels they used had them,

A suicide shower is a name that was coined for showers that have a heating element attached to the head of the shower, which you turn on with a throw-switch (usually with bare wires) that is attached to the wall next to the shower.

Any one used Costa Rica Extreme (tour company) – specifically Sea Kayaking in Tortuguero?

Looking for opinions on this company? Are they any good? Safety aware? Provided lodging on the kayak trip? Any info you can offer would be appreciated.
Thanks!

That is not one of the tour companies listed in the TicosLand web directory. I cannot tell you if it is reliable. I suggest that you use the Costa Rican Institute of Tourism website to find out more about this company or the TicosLand web directory to find any companies which cater to the extreme tourism trade.

I want to start a full service tour company in Costa Rica for young adults, how would I do that?

My family is from Costa Rica and I have been several times, I want to start a tour company that takes care of everything. I want a tour bus that takes tourist to their hotels and takes them to all the activities there are there.
How could I make money from this? How would you suggest I go about starting this company?

Thanks for all the help!

I envy you!!! Would LOVE to do this! It’s pretty simple to start a business there. I did a powerpoint project from school on this last semester. If you would like, I can email it to you. It has some pretty good information. Contact me through Yahoo if you would like it.

Here’s info from the first slide:
Retain a commercial attorney familiar with foreign business affairs.
Incorporate your company in the Mercantile Registry.
Register with the Dirección General de Tributación Directa (General Tax Office) as a tax paying entity doing business in Costa Rica.
Register as an employer with the Caja Costarricense de Seguro Social (Social Security) and the Instituto Nacional de Seguros (National Insurance Institute).
Request a permit to operate from the Ministry of Health.
Request a Municipal License.
Must have Resident Agent, normally Costa Rican attorney.
Must undergo environmental impact evaluation.
