OUR STORY

It all started in 2006, when two curious Canadian creatives set out to film a short documentary about people who just needed to unplug—from the 9-to-5 grind, from endless notifications, from, well… everything. They landed in Carate, a wild and wonderful beach town on Costa Rica’s Osa Peninsula, where monkeys outnumber people and the Wi-Fi is replaced by howler calls and ocean waves.

The project was meant to be a quick pilot. But one thing led to another, and that “short” documentary became over two decades of leading real-life, off-the-grid eco-adventures in one of the most biodiverse places on Earth.

By 2013, one of the original founders, Martine Racette, took the reins solo and gave the company a new look. A master social worker by training and a wilderness guide at heart, Martine leaned fully into her passion for nature and people—expanding her small but mighty travel company beyond Costa Rica to include Belize, Colombia, Guatemala, Honduras, Jamaica, Mexico and Peru.

With a deep respect for the land, a talent for spotting toucans in dense foliage, and an uncanny ability to find the best guides, Martine personally leads each group, supported by trusted local partners. Together, they create travel experiences that are authentic, sustainable, and just wild enough to wake up your soul.

Our Travel Community

Our adult-only groups are made up of adventurous, open-minded, and outdoorsy folks who are up for a good time (and a good hike). Most of our travelers fall between 35 and 65, but age is just a number—it’s the energy and attitude that count. Some trips focus on yoga, photography, or art, so depending on the group, you might end up sun-saluting, sketching waterfalls, or learning to capture the perfect toucan shot.

The one thing all our groups have in common? A love of nature, movement, and meaningful travel. You don’t need to be a triathlete, but you should feel comfortable walking on uneven jungle trails and getting a little muddy now and then. In Costa Rica, we’ll hike together through stunning landscapes—and we always give you the lowdown the night before, so you can decide to hit the trail or take the very valid “I’m-going-to-the-beach” option.

In Peru, everything’s designed to be accessible and flexible. If something feels too intense, we’ll have an awesome alternative ready that still makes your day magical (and maybe includes an alpaca sighting or two 🦙).

Curious which trip fits you best? Just ask—we’re happy to help!
And yes, we do all of this with a strong commitment to sustainability. Check it out.

SUSTAINABILITY

Why Travel Costa Rica With Us?

Because we don’t just visit the rainforest—we live it, breathe it, and occasionally get serenaded by howler monkeys in it.

We’re the only travel company in the world (yes, the world!) that’s been offering full rainforest immersion trips on the Osa Peninsula for nearly two decades. This isn’t your average “touch a tree and leave” kind of tour. We take small groups of curious, adventurous souls into the heart of one of the most pristine and biodiverse places in Central America—and we do it with heart, humour, and a serious respect for the planet.

We only work with small-scale ecolodges that are rooted in sustainability and give back to the local community. Think farm-to-table feasts, wildlife-packed adventures, and comfy accommodations tucked deep in nature—without the crowds or cookie-cutter vibes. Oh, and did we mention we fully guide you the whole way? So you can just enjoy the magic… and not worry about getting lost in the jungle (which, let’s be honest, is a very real possibility without us).

Yes, our trips are a bit more boutique—but here’s why:
✔️ Private chef cooking up local goodness
✔️ Limited rooms in stunning ecolodges = peace and quiet
✔️ Remote location = all the wildlife, none of the noise
✔️ Private hosts & expert guides = we’ve got you from start to finish

One traveler once called us the Cirque du Soleil of travel—and yeah, we’d say that sounds about right.

If you’re looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience that blends nature, culture, comfort, and just the right amount of wild… well, you’ve found your people.

Why Travel Peru With Us?

Because exploring Peru isn’t just about seeing Machu Picchu—it’s about the whole wild, beautiful, delicious ride to get there. And trust us, there’s a lot of ground to cover (planes, trains, and comfy private buses, anyone?).

With RR Escape, you’ll travel in a fully hosted small group, complete with private transportation, amazing local guides, and your very own RR Escape host by your side the entire way—like a travel fairy godparent, minus the wand. 🪄

We skip the cookie-cutter stuff and go straight to the good bits—authentic experiences, off-the-beaten-path gems, and plenty of local flavour (both cultural and culinary). We know Peru like the back of our very llama-loving hands, and we work with the best local partners to make sure every stop feels special.

We stay in charming, small-scale locally owned hotels, handpick delicious restaurants (because yes, Peruvian food is that good), and pack your itinerary with unforgettable activities. Think:
✔️ Sandboarding in the Ica Desert
✔️ Sailing the Ballestas Islands (aka the mini-Galápagos)
✔️ Pisco tasting (cheers to that 🍸)
✔️ Visits to ancient Inca sites like Ollantaytambo, Pisac, Moray, Maras
✔️ Oh—and Machu Picchu, of course.
Plus time to explore iconic cities like Lima and Cusco with our favorite local guides.

Traveling with a small group in Peru isn’t just more fun and stress-free—it’s also safer, more cost-effective, and guarantees you’ll uncover places you’d probably miss if you were trying to DIY it.

So bring your curiosity, your camera, and maybe a stretchy waistband… because adventure (and ceviche) awaits!

That means discovering local culture, where you become a part of the way of life, beyond guidebooks and tourist attractions.
