Company Reviews
We had great tour guides
Our hotels in La Fortuna and Monteverde were not good as I would have expected from Monogram. The Magic Mountain was a very nice property. But breakfast was average at best. Our room wasn't checked before we arrived. We had to change rooms. The safe box didn't work and the toilet seat was broken.
Our room at the Monteverde Country Lodge had no hot water the first night. And the rooms don't have heaters. So they were very cold.
Good xperienceTour guide was very knowledgeable and…
Visiting Paris & Normandy
Monograms is the best way to explore…
Second Time Around and still awesome
What a wonderful time
