We’re your new best friend. Mucho gusto (nice to meet you)!

Pura Vida! eh? Inc. is an advertising corporation serving Costa Rica-bound travelers from around the globe. Through our business, we support Costa Rican nationals, local businesses, and the country’s natural resources. We also operate the Costa Rica Travel Blog, run DIY Costa Rica, and author Moon Costa Rica, the Costa Rica travel guidebook published by the prestigious Moon Travel Guides.

Pura Vida! eh? Inc. is home to hundreds of discounts for Costa Rica day tours

Our website manages a Discount Database full of discounts for Costa Rica day tours. Through us, you can obtain discount vouchers for popular Costa Rica day tours which are given to Costa Rican tour operators in return for savings. Perhaps the easiest way to understand our business is to imagine our discount vouchers as coupons. The more coupons you collect, the more money you save.

In short, we advertise the best day tours that Costa Rica has to offer (based on our firsthand experience) and provide you with a means of participating in those activities for less. Unlike travel agents, travel agencies, and tourism organizations, we don’t sell vacation items and we don’t collect credit card information (we prefer to protect your earnings and privacy). You will always pay the tour operator directly for your chosen day tours, but by obtaining our discount vouchers first, you’ll pay the tour operator the exclusive discounted rates they allow us to access.

Is it really that easy? What’s the catch?

No catch! Our business is the result of our positive, longstanding affiliations with several tour operators in Costa Rica. We know each one firsthand, we have worked with many for over a decade, and we are proud to call several our friends. When you request discounts for your desired Costa Rica day tours through our website, as a result of our corporate associations, you’ll pay less money for your chosen tours. Saving money on your trip to Costa Rica is that easy!

How do I obtain the discounts that are advertised on your website?

At any time, you’re welcome to browse our Discount Database to find the discounts you want to obtain for your Costa Rica trip. You can even add the tour discounts you like to your “Cart” (the “Cart” page keeps track of the total amount of money you’ll save by using our discounts) but in order to checkout (i.e., in order to submit an order to obtain our discounts), you’ll need to be logged in to your Pura Vida! eh? member account. Click here to learn more about becoming a Pura Vida! eh? member.
