Meet Your Local Experts
My name is Gustavo Méndez, and I am proud to have joined TAM Travel in 2024. With more than 30 years of experience working with well-known travel companies in Costa Rica, I am passionate about creating custom trips for independent travelers who seek meaningful and unique vacations that go far beyond the ordinary.
Born and raised in Costa Rica, I have enjoyed nature for as long as I can remember. Exploring rivers, waterfalls, lakes, beaches and majestic mountains has always been part of my life. After formally studying Tourism and beginning my professional career in the industry, I continued to explore this paradise to offer my clients firsthand insights. Working alongside true pioneers of Costa Rica’s tourism industry, I developed a deep understanding of travelers’ needs and adopted a customer-first philosophy: every trip should be tailored to the traveler’s dreams, desires, expectations and needs.
In my free time, I enjoy reading, walking, discovering new destinations both in Costa Rica and abroad, and spending quality time with my rescued dogs and cats, my partner, and my grown-up children. One last thing about me: I’m a true coffee lover—so I feel incredibly fortunate to live in this marvelous country!

Over the years, we have noticed that travelers are seeking to connect not only with places but also with themselves and their loved ones. Travel today is about experiences, and our Luxury Vacation Services, led by local experts, offer trips that create strong emotions and memories that last a lifetime.
As travel professionals born and raised in Costa Rica, we provide helpful information and ideas to plan your dream vacation. As local experts, we help you avoid the stress of making wrong choices about hotels, destinations, transportation, or even the best times to see specific wildlife (do you know the best time and places to see the rare Resplendent Quetzal?). We believe the excitement of a vacation should start the moment you contact us, so you don’t have to worry about sorting through an overwhelming variety of options online. That’s why we handle everything (except international flights), making the process simple and enjoyable.
Whenever possible, we go beyond the typical vacation, offering cultural experiences such as farm-to-table dining, wildlife protection, eco-friendly projects, artisanal workshops, cultural traditions, and sharing a meal with locals. We strive to provide as many experiences as possible that are authentic, fun, safe, and aligned with our sustainability efforts.
We also understand that some guests prefer to relax, enjoy the environment, and have time to themselves. For those seeking a more tranquil experience, we are fully prepared to offer the best ideas.
From relaxing beach vacations with a local touch to deep nature experiences guided by expert naturalist guides, we design custom trips that offer relaxation, adventure, or a luxury escape in nature. These journeys, whether wellness retreats, healing trips, or eco-adventures, not only help local communities and the environment but also inspire personal growth, allowing travelers to return home with new perspectives and a sense of fulfilment.
