The best in the business I would say. Right from the booking to picking up and return, they were just amazing. The cars might be old but they are very well maintained. We had rented the Hilux and we had issues with one of the tent which had a leak. They were very prompt and quick to respond and a brand new tent was installed on our truck and that too they came to wherr we were with everything that was needed. Had a wonderful Costa Rica experience with Nomad America.

Wonderful experience, highly recommended for any type of overland camping!! There were 5 people on this trip and had enough space for luggage and seating. 3 of us slept on top of the truck, very spacious and comfortable and 2 were using tents. Well mapped out for campsites and various attractions. Would definitely use Nomad America again for the next adventure. Muchas gracias!!!

I wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt thanks for the outstanding service we received during our recent camper rental with Nomad America. Everything went smoothly, from the booking process to the vehicle handover, and we were particularly impressed with how friendly and helpful the staff were. It's clear that your excellent reputation online is truly well-deserved. I can wholeheartedly agree with all the positive aspects mentioned in other reviews and would definitely recommend Nomad America's service to anyone looking for an exceptional travel experience in Costa Rica. Thank you again to the entire team at Nomad America, and I wish you continued success!

We booked our rental 4x4 with Nomad America with a rooftop tent. It was amazing. Diego (our contact person) was picking us up from the airport, which was really nice to start the holiday. He explained everything on the car. From everything that is included to how to set up the tent. He really took the time for us. Also you'll be added to a groupchat, so whenever you have questions on the road, you can always contact them. During our holiday we had a flat tire (a few hours away from Nomad America) and we contacted them. They responded immediately and helped us with a solution. Diego contacted garages in the area where we were and found a tire that fit our car. He send the details and made sure they knew we were coming. He also really considered our traveling itenirary, so it would not mess up our trip. He is such a nice contacting person. After the trip, we handed in our 4x4. That also went very quickly. We REALLY recommend Nomad America to everyone! Thank you for your service and support during our trip. With kind regards, Robin and Manuela.

No Better way to explore Costa Rica. Our experience with Nomad America really made the trip so much more adventurous and memorable. Highly recommend renting their fully setup rigs for a wild ride. They are super knowledgeable of the areas you'll most likely want to go, and some you didn't know about too. Diego was awesome and told us about a few spots the were well worth the detour on our already tightly planned trip. We're already looking forward to the next time we head to Costa Rica with Nomad America!

Fantastic experience. The guys from Nomad America are kind, knowledgeable, well-equipped, helpful and friendly. Their cars and tents are simply perfect. We spent 15 days in Costa Rica, it rained almost all the time and we always slept in their tents. Not a drop of water got in. Fantastic. If you come to Costa Rica and want to camping, rely on them.

Rented a Toyota 4runner with roof tent for a month. Great service before our trip including advice on which setup would be best with kids. During the journey the team was always available via WhatsApp. The car itself was in impeccable condition with many useful camping accessories. Highly recommended!

Our trip to Costa Rica is still vivid in our memories, even after some time has passed! (Sorry for writing this review with a bit of delay ) In May we embarked on a spontaneous adventure by renting a 4x4 from Nomad America. With no set plans or camping experience, we hit the road, but Nomad America was there to support us every step of the way. They equipped us with all the necessary information about the vehicle and the country, staying connected via WhatsApp throughout our travels to ensure our safety. Their suggestions led us to some of the most stunning camping locations. On our last day, when we encountered car issues, they promptly came to our rescue. Thanks to their assistance, we returned the vehicle on time, and they even arranged transportation to the airport so we wouldn t miss our flight. Having explored just a fraction of Costa Rica, we intend to return, and we will undoubtedly choose Nomad America again! Renting from them gave us incredible freedom and included everything we needed for a comfortable camping experience. By choosing Nomad America, we truly experienced the essence of Pura Vida: waking up to the melodies of wildlife, moving at our own pace, and reconnecting with nature. We are immensely grateful to Nomad America for this unforgettable journey that ignited our adventurous spirits! Thank you Diego & team. David & Eline

We rented a car for a week with them. Their customer service was amazing! They had so many tipps and helped us with every possible question we had. They were also super chill with little scratches on the car etc. When we got the car it was super clean and had everything we needed. The location would be a bit difficult to find by yourself but we got picked up for free at the airport and they drove us there.

The best way to discover Costa Rica! Theyre more than just a car rental place. We immediately felt at home thanks to Diego and the rest of the Nomad family. They give you the best tips to start your journey and are always available during your trip. We loved our little Jimny, it was perfect for the two of us, well equipped and perfect for the Costa Rican terrain. It gets you from the cloud forest, to the top of the mountain all the way to the beach. Thank you guys for making this dream possible. Were still on a high!

Incredible experience with Nomad America! We went during the low season, so the prices were more than reasonable, considering the great service provided and how well equipped the car was. We rented a BeGo (Toyota Rush) and it was perfect for two. He took us to all corners of the country without problems and the equipment was of quality: the refrigerator, the table and chairs, the kitchen utensils... The paellas could still be renewed, as they are already a little scratched and sticking a little, but overall excellent. We had space for everything and the tent was set up and taken down very quickly. It has been quite an adventure and we have loved getting to know the country so freely The attention of all the staff is always 10, personally and by WhatsApp. They also give many tips for visiting and camping. We were even able to leave our large suitcases in their offices while we were away, to save space in the car. I would recommend this company to everyone who wants to do a road trip through Costa Rica in this way

Increible experiencia con Nomad America! Fuimos en temporada baja, por lo que los precios eran mas que razonables, si se piensa en el gran servicio que se presta y lo bien equipado que estaba el coche. Alquilamos un BeGo (Toyota Rush) y fue perfecto para dos. Nos llevo a todos los rincones del pais sin problemas y el equipamiento era de calidad: la nevera, la mesa y sillas, los utensilios de cocina... Igual se podrian renovar las paellas, que ya estan un poco rascadas y se pegaban un poco, pero en general excelente. Tuvimos espacio para todo y la tienda se montaba y desmontaba muy rapido. Ha sido toda una aventura y nos ha encantado conocer el pais asi de libres La atencion de todo el personal siempre de 10, personalmente y por whatsapp. Ademas dan muchos tips para visitar y de campings. Incluso pudimos dejar nuestras maletas grandes en sus oficinas mientras estabamos fuera, para ahorrar espacio en el coche. Recomendaria esta empresa a todo el mundo que quiera hacer un road trip por Costa Rica de esta manera

The best service ever! Not only is the car fully equipped, Diego and his team also give you tips and advice about the best spots in Costa Rica. They are so so so very helpful! When we accidentally took some camping chairs out of the car when we picked them up, they came after us to bring the chairs. Or we could buy other seats ourselves and submit the receipt. Almost absurd, this service! In any case, we have not experienced that often. Moreover, they are so enthusiastic about camping and their country, which makes it extra fun!
Translation
De beste service ooit! Niet alleen is de auto volledig uitgerust, Diego en zijn team geven je ook tips en advies over de beste plekjes in Costa Rica. Ze zijn zo zo zo ontzettend behulpzaam! Toen we zelf per ongeluk wat de campingstoelen uit de auto hadden gehaald, toen we deze ophaalden, kwamen ze ons achter na om de stoelen te brengen. Of we mochten zelf andere stoelen kopen en het bonnetje indienen. Bijna absurd, deze service! Wij hebben dat in elk geval nog niet vaak meegemaakt. Bovendien zijn ze zo enthousiast over kamperen en hun land, dat maakt het extra leuk!

I cannot express how thankful I am for the experience we had with Nomad America it really was an all inclusive camping experience. We brought some gear of our own, just in case, and never even opened the bag. Diego was fully accessible via WhatsApp, answered all of our questions and provided incredibly fast service for a minor maintenance issue had us fixed and on the road in 25 minutes. If you re hesitant, just do it. No better way to fill your adventure cup.

The Jimny with rooftoptent we rented at Nomad America was perfect for the two of us. We drove it all across the country, used the 4x4, did some river crossings and even wild camping. The crew was only just one app away. They give us some good advice and even pointed out the best places to stay. They even went to great lengths when I misplaced my phone after our trip. Thank you guys for all your help and making our Costa Rica trip unforgettable! You are definitely the best. We would do this again any time exactly the same way!! Sandra and Hans

Nomad America is the only proper way to truly experience the best of Costa Rica. The camping setup is fantastic. Equipped with everything you need. The bed is the most comfortable camping sleeping Ive ever had. But the real benefit of Nomad America is youre not just renting a car, youre getting a host. We found our own campsite the first night and it was terrible. For the rest of the trip we vowed to follow their guidance on campsites and they delivered! The campsites were the highlight of the trip. Tremendous hosts, locations, and properties. I hope to find a Nomad America everywhere I travel from now on. It was that good.

What an amazing company! You are not renting a vehicle, you are buying an experience. Thank you to Diego at Nomad for his patience and knowledge while sharing his tips before we set off on our journey. Also for the flexibility in working with us around our flight times. The support offered once on the road, from destination pindrops to the group message thread, is priceless. Diego, we look forward to seeing you again for our trip to Osa.

Top company & Top Car! We had such a wonderful trip with the camper car. Very good equipment. Car is really the best 4x4 we have seen in all of Cost Rica. Communication with the Nomad team was also fantastic. Good advice during the trip about campsites, etc. We extended the car for a few more days. If I could give them 10 stars I definitely would.

Diego is a passionate and dedicated employee who definitely exceeded my expectations by taking the time necessary to advise me on the best places to visit based on my budget and personal interests. He even accompanied me by text during my trip to answer all my questions and guide me with my itinerary changes. All the necessary equipment was provided at no extra cost, including a course to explain how it was to be used. To top it all off, the prices are very affordable. I am sincerely more than satisfied with the customer service and services provided by the company and its employees. I highly recommend her!

Nomad America stands out as a car rental service that goes above and beyond, thanks to the passion and dedication of its local team. From the very start of our journey, their excellent service and genuine care for our experience were evident. The team assisted us with every step, from booking and payment to airport transfers and a comprehensive tutorial on using the equipment. Our trip was nothing short of spectacular, featuring jungle treks, stunning waterfalls, breathtaking sunsets, and exhilarating drives. This incredible adventure was made possible by Nomad America Costa Rica. When we encountered an issue with our car, their swift response was impressive they quickly sent a mechanic to ensure everything was in perfect working order before we continued our trek. Their constant support and valuable advice throughout the trip were invaluable. Returning the car was seamless, and the overall experience was smooth and stress-free. The attention to detail and care from the Nomad America team were exceptional. Special thanks to Ademar and Diego for their outstanding service and dedication. If you re looking for a hassle-free, unforgettable vacation in Costa Rica, I highly recommend Nomad America. Their commitment to ensuring a memorable adventure shines through in every aspect of their service. Pura Vida Mae!
