Ann L. | Traveled in August
We've just returned from an adventure of a lifetime in Costa Rica. Had the best family holiday and saw so much amazing wildlife. Zip-wired above the rainforest canopy, white water rafted along the Rio Balsa, climbed volcano trails, enjoyed a family cooking class in the cloud forest region, learned about local cheese and chocolate and enjoyed eating them, watched a turtle laying eggs in the dark of the night, saw a sloth swimming in the jungle waterways and watched humpbacks breaching in the Pacific on our boat journey to Corcovado National Park. Everyday was an exciting adventure with an itinerary that kept the whole family happy. Covering several different regions, each with its own unique climate, the wildlife trip really did show off the best of Costa Rica. We were extremely lucky to have the most fantastic guide, whose knowledge and enthusiasm made our trip the best it could possibly have been. Perfect holiday in every way.

The accommodation was just for sleeping in but much more than adequate. The itinerary was fantastic - every day had at least one highlight that we'll never forget. The Explore leader was exemplary: friendly, approachable, ultra-knowledgeable and was happy to go above and beyond to show off his country of which he was rightly proud.

A great trip! I really liked seeing four very different destinations and the activities on offer meant it was an exciting trip. Plenty of opportunities to see wildlife - including unexpected whale watching. Some of the hotels are more basic but they didn’t detract from the overall experience.

Our tour guide, Manny, was great - professional and friendly - and ensured we all had the best time in Costa Rica. It was so nice being able to have so many incredible experiences without having to think about booking them or how I was going to travel between them, even when dinners/ lunches weren’t provided Manny showed us some great places. The activities were all pretty amazing too!
Christina | Traveled in August
Amazing holiday; would fully recommend for wildlife lovers. The trip had many highlights and wow moments, but the nicest thing was seeing animals in the wild whilst not negatively impacting on them.
