CRAmazing Experience & Trip! Everything was planned and executed perfectly for our honeymoon! We loved the private transportation from place to place and our driver, Alejandro, was a rockstar. He definitely taught us the most about Ecuador and stopped at one of our favorite restaurants of the entire trip! The hotels Melanie and Kathleen picked for us was the perfect mix of authentic Ecuador and luxury. They put us at Hacienda Zuleta to end the trip and I cannot say enough good things about this property! We never would have found it or probably even picked it without DTAs recommendation! So happy they did. It was so great to have all the details seamlessly organized so we could just travel and enjoy! I highly recommend them for your next trip!

GBThe EXPERTS on Latin America My wife and I contacted Dive the Americas while planning our first trip to Costa Rica. Whether it was a fishing charter, dive trips, rental car, or even just dinner recommendations, Kathleen ensured that we made the most of our time in the country. Dive the Americas provided and absolutely wonderful experience and I can't wait to use them again for our next Central American vacation.

GBAbsolute Perfection!!! Perfection! I don’t think I can come up with enough positive accolades for just how much we enjoyed our 2-week trip to Costa Rica in April. My husband and I were traveling with another couple and between the 4 of us we have traveled to or lived in almost every country on 6 continents. When I say that Melanie and Kathleen (Dive the Americas) are the absolute best travel planners we’ve ever had, there truly is no higher praise or recommendation. They planned an amazing trip and thought of absolutely everything, varying modes of travel, cultural and wildlife experiences, and even a WhatsApp chat group so that we could contact each other throughout our trip. With all of our travels, we have never had that ease of contact and communication with the travel agents. We visited 4 different areas: Baja del Toro cloud forest, Arenal, Manuel Antonio, and Drake Bay/Osa Peninsula with some sort or tour or activity each day. The hotels/lodges they chose were amazing and vastly different from each other so we received a unique experience at each, but all were similar in that customer service and attention to detail was exceptional. ALL of the tours, which were handpicked by DTA were some of the best that we have ever had. Some of our favorite experiences were 1. Having the gorgeous 100ft sailboat Brisa Elegante all to ourselves for the afternoon of snorkeling and water sports. 2. Amazing wildlife viewings: tapirs, scarlet Macaws, Toucans, Eyelash viper, hundreds of hummingbirds, poison dart frogs 3. Many sloths, but the most precious juvenile 3-toed sloth just outside our door eating his leaves. Our room was in the canopy of the trees eye-level with him. We could have touched him if we wanted to…he was that close! 4. All 4 monkey groups. Howlers waking us up each morning, White-face/Capuchins being sneaky and taking dips in our plunge pool, Squirrel and Spider monkeys swinging in the trees and playing with their babies. 5. And so much more that I could go on and on! I have no doubt that we could blindly trust Melanie and Kathleen to send us on another magical trip with nothing more than a budget, range of dates, and a surprise me with the location…and it would be perfection!

GBLove Dive the Americas for honeymoon planning! My husband and I couldn't have asked for a better experience when booking our honeymoon through Dive The Americas! We were overwhelmed with all of the options prior to reaching out to them and DTA made the process effortless. We had zero concerns about travelling to Mexico because they mapped everything out perfectly. They went above and beyond once we reached Mexico by checking up on us daily and working with the resort so we had the best time ever! I know without a doubt we will use Dive The Americas again when booking our next getaway!
