The Urchin

Had a great trip in the camper truck. Great vehicle and great host. Communicative and flexible.

Costa Rica Overlanding was very helpful throughout the duration of my stay and was flexible on the checkin time when my flight was delayed. Jacob recommended transportation and even helped set up transportation from the airport. It was great having a vehicle and place to sleep while exploring the beautiful waterfalls, beaches, and jungles of Costa Rica. With 4x4 the truck handled no problem on the sand, mud, and up the mountains. It was a reliable and fun way to check out Costa Rica. The inside of the camper was not the same model as the pictures due to a previous rental damage and a change of the camper but it was suffice with plenty of sleeping room, a kitchen, plenty of water, and a hot shower which was really cool turning on and showering with hot water after a long hike back from a waterfall. Jacob will show you how to use everything at checkin. Can’t wait to come back!

It was a unique experience, unforgettable, the camper is very equipped, even excessively, many things we did not use such as the generator or air conditioning, etc... Being a 4x4 camper/RV and in our case, a rain station, gives you a freedom and allows you to explore the country and have experiences that would not be possible otherwise.

An adventure to take a trip with this car gives you a lot of freedom and autonomy. Communication with Jacob was perfect

The experience from start to finish was A-MA-ZING! Jacob was very kind, responsive and super helpful at all times. The camper has everything you need and you'll feel very safe in it, with or without rain :) The best way to experience Costa Rica, no doubt !! We highly recommend ✨

My husband and I have an overloading vehicle in the states so to find someone renting theirs in Costa Rica felt like home. Jacob is very quick to respond and communicates clearly both during booking process, questions before arrival and when inside rental period. We chose to have him deliver the camper truck to us on the coast in Playa Hermosa. Jacob set up a driver for us from SJO and suggested a family operated hotel which he'd bring the truck to. Our driver was so wonderful as was the hotel we stayed in our first night. Their lot to park truck was perfect and secure. We did leg work ahead of time and secured camping locations our first three nights on The Osa Peninsula. This helped a lot with fears of where we would stay and how easy or hard securing wild camping would be. Do your homework, research, read blogs, ask camping questions in groups and you will be set for the most epic adventure. Stop at a local supermercaco to stock up on essentials then have a blast.

Costa Rica by camper is truly a dream. The camper offers everything you want. Even if it rains, it is pleasant to stay inside. Communication with Jacob was super easy, he responds within a short time :) Thank you - we would book the camper again immediately!!

This is a great camper truck to explore Costa Rica on an uncomplicated and spontaneous way. The camper brings everything you need. Jacob is a great guy who provides best support. Costa Rica does not provide a lot of companies for camper trucks. And this offer from Jacob with this equipment is for sure unique.

What an incredible experience! I can’t say enough about overlanding in The Urchin! My boyfriend and I had such a wonderful time exploring Costa Rica in style. Jacob was very helpful throughout the process and so so kind (he even gave us a ride to town after our reservation ended)! A word to the wise, make sure to get the extra tire and windshield insurance at the very least! The saying “potholes to paradise” is incredibly accurate in Costa Rica and even if you don’t pop a tire you’ll be happy to have the peace of mind! Would recommend Costa Rica Overlanding services 1,000 times over again!
