Thank you David and Marcia for a wonderful experience in Costa Rica. Our group felt warmly embraced by your pleasant nature and your trickle of fun historical facts. Bottom line, you made our tour experience absolutely wonderful. We hope to visit with you again soon and HIGHLY RECOMMEND your services to any visiting shore excursioner(s). Thanks again.
Thank you very much :-). Juno.
Hello David!
How are you?
Hope you remember me - we shared a table at Soda Miss Sam in Puerto Viejo!
I'm back now in cold Austria and starting working again tomorrow….so I often think back to charming and warm Costa Rica.
It was very nice to meet you guys!
Have a great day!
Silvia
Just wanted to say thanks for everything during our trip. I've been busy with work since I came back from the trip (I need to make all the money I spent drinking Imperial down there). But thanks a lot anyway, I'm really glad you were the one who was able to show us Limon I feel like I really got to see the city and learned a lot about it. All the help we got from you was great about Limon Province. I really think I took advantage of what there was to do in Limon and also thanks a lot for taking Dave (the Rutgers Gringo Dave) and me out with you and your son, we had a blast it was really a lot of fun and if I'm in Limon again I'll definitely be stopping in to see you and this time the beer is on me.

DAVID:
We all had a fantastic time on David Carnegie's 5-In-1 Combo Tour Shore Excursion in Puerto Limon,Costa Rica.
The weather was perfect. 85 degrees F, (Chicago was 22 degrees the same day!), light NE sea breeze gently swaying the coconut palms and our little group of Midwesterners enjoying some Bob Marley and Walter Ferguson music (Reggae-Calypso).
David gave us the millionaire treatment "off the beaten path".
First, we took a great photo-op from the El Faro Restaurant vantage point overlooking Puerto Limon and the Historic Isla Uvita (Quiribri). We then took a panoramic drive along the seacoast road connecting Puerto Limon with her sister town Puerto Moin. There, we boarded a small craft (canopy covered with all safety equipment) and spent nearly one hour taking pictures of the incredible display of tropical birds inhabiting this narrow "Amazon Canal". Iguanas, Jesus Christ lizards, sloths,monkeys, crocodiles and a special species of bat almost invisibly living on the side of a tree all told us HELLO! and upon departing, please come back again!
We next took a short back road drive through some of the greenest fields I have ever seen in my life. The banana plantation we then toured showed me how much I never knew about our favorite breakfast cereal fruit.
Our next to last stop, Cahuita National Park showed me why this exotic Province is so special. Coral Reefs, white and black sand beaches and fantastic natural walking trails, all in two hours time. The cuisine was fantastic and with a great price tag! Red Snapper dinner with patacones, rice and beans, typical salad all for $10.00!
Last stop before the Pier was a handicrafts shop where we purchased items we won't see anywhere else in the Western Hemisphere, all meticulously hand-created by local BriBri Indigenous men and women. David told me to come back on a longer vacation when the kids finish school in June and he'll show us a special time at a RELAX-RELAX-RELAX pace. He mentioned something we in theUSA can't even imagine: Costa Rica has NO STANDING ARMY and has had none since 1949!!! Why can't us Gringos get it together like the Tico's?
Upon returning to the Pier, I felt like I have lived here all my life, yet only in the space of 8 hours time.
Thank you so much, David Carnegie and your entire team of co-workers. God-Willing, I'll be back again and I highly recommend anyone reading this post to visit Mr. Carnegie's site at www.caribbeancostaricans.citymax.com and give him a try.
You'll be glad you did!

Dear Maria, I just wanted to take the time to extend my appreciation and gratitude for the wonderful tour you arranged for us on Sunday, March 28th at Puerto Limon, Costa Rico. I know I had called you about our guide not being there, but we were late getting off the ship and our paths kept missing, until David Carnegie and I met. What a wonderful guy! My wife and I were given a grand tour, beyond our expectations. The Jungle Breezes Canopy tour was a highlight of our trip, and the staff at Jungle Breezes (Jose and the rest) were great. David took us around Puerto Limon because the weather was not suitable for our trip to Playa Bonita, and we were treated to, among other things, a great road-side fruit/vegetable stand, where we sampled the incredible tastes of fresh finger bananas, ripe pineapple, cocoa pods; coconut milk and other incredible delights. I would definitely recommend him and your tour company to anyone interested in seeing Puerto Limon, specifically, and Costa Rico in general. Again, I thank you for your quick correspondences, and working with me to make this trip to Costa Rico a memorable one for me and my wife, and I would ask you to please send my best to David Carnegie, a marvelous host that helped us appreciate the beauty of the Atlantic side of Costa Rico. Thank you, Marc Kaplan, DC, CCSP

David & Max - Had a really wonderful day in your beautiful country with Roy. He was an awsome guide and we saw and did so much.

We cannot say enough about the experience. Thanks so much!
