Johnny Montero was a great guide, and I put up this website mainly so that he could give a link to prospective customers to find out more about him. Email me at mwest@nyx.net if you want to hear it from the horse's mouth.

Johnny is a native of Costa Rica, and shows the same pride in his country that we saw in many of the people. And they have a lot to be proud of: no military, a very high literacy rate, a great climate, a society tolerant of different religions and races, and a strong economy.

Johnny spent a good deal of his youth in the USA, and is fluent in English. He came back to his own country to live, and I can't say I blame him. Now he works for himself as a guide and jack-of-all-trades, and he has a great work ethic. He is polite, intelligent, and he was always ready to tell us about his country, to answer questions, and to help make our vacation truly special. We never felt rushed, and he was truly gracious in helping us get what we wanted. I sense that he gets a lot of good "word-of-mouth" advertising from his customers. I just wanted to put some of that onto the web.

You can get in touch with Johnny by fax to his sister at 011-506-441-4682 or try his cell phone at 394-4217. Of course, often he is guiding a tour group. As of now, he does not have email. His address is (believe it or not, if you are fluent in Spanish) :

Johnny Montero AlFaro
Alajuela: Detros Antiga Fabrica Lizano
Centro America
