Isa Travel
About us

A local team that treats your trip like our own

Isa Travel is a Costa Rican tour operator, and we plan and run your whole trip on the ground here. Since 2014 we've helped travellers from North America and Europe experience the real Costa Rica, handled end to end, responsibly.

Our story

Built in Costa Rica, for the way people actually want to travel here

We started in 2014 moving travellers safely between airports, volcanoes and coastlines, and grew, trip by trip, into a full operator: private transfers, small-group day tours and tailor-made multi-day journeys.

Formalised as ISA Travel Costa Rica S.A. in 2022, we kept what mattered from day one: a small, local team that answers personally, plans around you, and stands behind every detail of the trip.
