About Central America Travelers
My name is Elías Ovares, and I’ve dedicated over 20 years to sharing the beauty of Costa Rica with Central America travelers from all over the world. My journey in tourism began as a child, sitting next to my father in an old 1973 Land Rover, driving adventurous guests around Lake Arenal, back when the Arenal Volcano was still active and glowing red at night. I remember travelers watching lava flows from the road—amazed, thrilled, and deeply moved by the raw beauty of Costa Rica, with no paved roads around.
Those early days shaped my love for nature, hospitality, and storytelling. Today, with more than 20 years of experience, we are a trusted local partner based in Guanacaste with deep roots in the region. We are certified by the Costa Rican Tourism Board and proud holders of a World Travel & Tourism Council certification.
We offer more than just transportation services; we are fully licensed and insured, with a team of trained professional drivers and government-certified guides—many of whom have worked with us for over a decade. We provide a reliable, luxury-level experience that’s personal, flexible, insured, and always safe.
What makes us different? We believe in creating experiencias personalizadas en Costa Rica through storytelling. Whether it’s exploring waterfalls, visiting coffee farms, or immersing ourselves in the rainforest, we design every experience with heart—Pura Vida!
