From Costa Rica to Italy so much more, where will you choose to go?
The Navigo pickleball tour to Costa Rica was a great way to see the country while enjoying pickleball play and wonderful tours and activities. We were privileged to observe a huge active volcano, tour a world-class coffee farm, challenge ourselves on one of the top zipline courses in the whole world, go to a national park for sloth and birdwatching along with a world-class beach, enjoy a cooking class at a countryside eatery, and get a feel for what Costa Rica has to offer.
It is billed as a pickleball tour, but a non-pickleball playing partner will have a wonderful experience too as there is so much to do and see beyond the play.
It’s great to kick back on the small tour bus and let them manage the curvy mountain roads and traffic while the local tour guide gives you an intimate look at Costa Rican life and culture.

Navigo Pickleball | Costa Rica 2025This Costa Rica tour was extremely well organized. Dave was always very responsive to questions as the trip was being organized. Maikol was so knowledgeable in giving us background on the country and in making sure we had authentic type experiences. He had such a great sense of humor, and also extreme patience with all the questions being constantly lobbed at him. Even the bus driver was an asset as a lot of times I have had drivers that I was really uncomfortable with. He was wonderful navigating all that traffic and roads. It was so much fun with the mixture of pickleball and touring. I definitely felt like the trip was good value and that we got our money’s worth. Something about the mixture of play and tours really brought the group together and the mix of personalities was so enjoyable. A worthwhile trip!

Navigo Pickleball | Costa Rica 2025I can’t say enough good things about our Navigo Sports Tours pickleball vacation to Costa Rica! The trip was jam-packed with fun things to do including zip lining, a volcano hike, a cooking class, a national park tour, a crocodile river tour, and more! All this and 4 days of friendly pickleball too! The arrangements went off without a hitch. Not an easy thing to do with such a busy itinerary. Kudos to our tour director David, our local guide Maiko,l and our driver Mario. I can’t wait to book another tour with Navigo Pickleball Vacations!

Navigo Pickleball | Costa Rica 2025Fun trip with old friends and met new ones!! Really enjoyed the wine and pickleball experience. Our pickleball coach Rachel, was so much fun to be around and was always positive. She was age-appropriate for our group and didn’t try to change everything. She just tried to give us little tweaks and strategy to improve our game. Michael and David were great guides. The wineries were all awesome, and transportation was comfortable and on schedule. Great job Navigo

Navigo Pickleball | Sonoma 2025We all turned into a family within 24 hours. This was one of those rare groups where a lot of people just clicked, and that was fun! The accommodations were outstanding, five-star hotels and locations. All the adventures were a lot of fun, well-planned, and the bus was the best I’ve ever had. I would definitely go with Navago Sports Tours again!

Navigo Pickleball | Costa Rica 2026We just got back from our pickleball Sonoma trip & I had to let you know how much we really enjoyed working with Michelle! She is such a gem & very impressive as a tour director. Besides being a wonderful person, she was totally on top of things, making sure everyone had what they needed & was always very informative about the places we were going to. If she didn’t have the answer right then, within minutes she found the answers to our questions. I know she put a lot of time and effort into the restaurant selection & finding information in the wineries that we went to. Always with a smile & always happy to help, she was so approachable. She’s the kind of person that I really hope to see again!
The trip was amazing! Everyone really connected and had a lot of fun together. Rachel was a wonderful & fun pro to work with. I’m excited to try all the new things that I learned from her.
I am actually walking away from this trip with two new friends & at 64 years old, that is a rare thing to happen.
My husband joined me on this trip & is not a pickleball player, and he too was out there every morning, so I’m grateful for that as well!!!
I want to thank you for putting together such a fun trip & our farewell dinner was créme de la créme! By then, everyone was comfortable with each other & the winery outdid themselves. It was such a fun experience, and I think everyone will remember that day for years to come.

Sonoma Pickleball Escape | 2026The Sonoma Pickleball trip was BETTER than I had hoped for! Michelle and Rachael worked hard to enhance that chemistry. I accused them of using alchemy to create golden magic the whole week through. I have no complaints, and I would definitely consider Navigo Tours for another pickleball trip – especially if those two were involved.
