Christopher Howard’s Relocation Tours™ Changing lives one tour at a time
Learn and experience what life will be like when you move to Costa Rica
Relocating or retiring to Costa Rica can be a great option for those seeking a lower cost of living, beautiful natural scenery, and a more relaxed way of life. Our unique exploratory tours are for people of ALL ages including those who want to live here full or part-time, just vacation, entrepreneurs and investors, people seeking a new and adventure -filled lifestyle, away from the hustle, bustle or politics from home and for anyone with a survivalist mindset looking to live in a virtually self-sufficient and peaceful country. Costa Rica has something for everyone and everything for someone.
There is nothing like an “in-person tour” to see and experience life here.
ALL tours include a one-of-a-kind highly informative two-day seminar by Costa Rica’s most renowned experts in their respective fields: ”Tips and Tricks for Pura Vida: A seminar— how to be an informed expat.”

If you’re interested in moving, retiring or just relocating to Costa Rica and want to get a better understanding of the different regions and choices available, we are the best option. It would be impossible to do a tour like this on your own! You’ll save time, money, and headaches when you do it the right way.
By the end of the tour, most of the participants will know if Costa Rica is the right fit for them. Some will have picked their favorite area to live in. A few will immediately apply for residency. While others will stay on for a while to explore key areas and factors more deeply, which is a great way to do additional due diligence. A handful will discover that expat living here won’t work for them. That’s OK because it’s what they came to find out and their special paradise may be somewhere else.
Your guide Christopher accompanies you throughout the tour, guides you every step of the way, and answers your questions like an ongoing seminar, unlike some relocation tours that don’t.
The average size of the tours is 15 people, so space is limited

You could never do a one-of-a-kind tour like this on your own, receive time-the tested information, valuable contacts, and experience we provide from any other source including forums, expat sites, blogs, or newsgroups.
This is NOT a real estate or timeshare tour, but a LIFESTYLE TOUR NOT intended to sell you anything. These tours and your expenses may be a write-off for your US income taxes since you may have come here to research starting a new business here. Also, find out about saving up to $120.000 on your U.S. taxes as a foreign resident with an active income abroad.

If you’re looking for just a real estate tour ours is the wrong bus. We supply just the right amount of preferred data about home life options with no real estate pitches — we promise. You can’t buy property from us. You can get terrific referrals if you ask for them.

“A Tour of a Lifetime”
Brenda and I want to thank you for the fabulous time we had during the June Tours. We’ve been to lots of places on 2 continents, but we’ve never enjoyed anything as much as the 8 days we spent with you. Your venue can never be copied by anyone, as every day and every discussion is noteworthy and meaningful, each a day that we wish we could take home. Being with you is like being with an Author, Historian, a Biologist, and a Cultural Expert all in one. Moving to a new country is serious stuff, but you come with a lively sense of humor to boot!
All this and a new adventure around every corner!
All Our Best,
