The history of Get Lost

The origin story of Get Lost in Guanacaste, Tamarindo, Costa Rica

Founders: Don Grant and Mary Grant

Get Lost, based in Tamarindo, Guanacaste, has roots going back to the early 2010s. It all started with Don Grant and his wife Mary Grant, a local couple born and raised in the region, who shared a passion for adventure and community. With a clear vision of offering travelers something more personal and immersive, they built a tour company focused on authentic experiences that reflect the true spirit of Costa Rica.

Pioneering Eco-Tourism in Tamarindo, Costa Rica

As 2010 approached, the Grant family decided to turn their vision of offering unique experiences in the natural landscapes around Tamarindo into reality. After partnering with a development company, they worked hard to create an ecotourism project called Get Lost. For over 12 years, the partnership focused on developing a series of tours in Talamanca, allowing both Costa Ricans and foreigners to enjoy the rich flora and fauna that characterize our region.
