Off the grid · est. on foot

The Costa Rica the buses never reach.

Private access and quiet, small-group days into the country most travellers never see — led by someone who actually has the keys.

02What off the grid means

Private access. Real places. None of the crowd.

Off the grid isn’t a longer drive or a harder hike. It’s the road with a gate we’re welcome through, the table that doesn’t take bookings, the hour before the first engine turns over.

We don’t run bigger tours. We run quieter ones — for small groups who want the real thing, and for private travellers who want it built entirely around them.

Two ways to travel

Choose how you go off the grid.

The same hidden corners and private access — two different ways to experience them.

Small-group · semi-private

Join a small group

A handful of travellers, a private-feeling day, and a guide who knows exactly where to be and when. Set departures you can book in a few taps.

05The insider

The access isn’t a product. It’s a lifetime.

We were born to this country and spent years earning the welcomes the guidebooks can’t print — the farming families, the bush pilots, the guides whose grandparents kept these slopes. That’s why we can take you where others can’t. Not a list of stops. A set of relationships.

Our story

06In their words

We'd done Costa Rica before. This was the first time it felt like ours.
Marieke & Tom · Amsterdam
He took us down a road I'm certain isn't on any map, to a breakfast I still think about.
The Olsen family · Oslo
Private, unhurried, and completely real. Worth every cent, and then some.
