I’m Rodrigo Santamaría, the founder of Explore Tikizia. As a Costa Rican travel agent, certified tour guide, and tourism professional with more than 15 years of experience, I’ve dedicated my career to helping travelers explore Costa Rica with confidence, purpose, and authenticity.
Through Explore Tikizia, I provide travelers with personalized consulting calls, destination guides (like our Cerro Chirripó Hiking Guide), and itinerary planning services. Alongside my wife, Ligia, and our small team, we combine local expertise, passion for nature, and industry knowledge to create travel experiences that are honest, safe, and unforgettable.
