We had a great trip. It was an amazing way to see a country in a short space of time on a limited budget. It didn't feel like being rushed about - we had a nice amount of free time and alone time to do our own things. Our group was really special and really added to my experience.
Jessie N. | Traveled in October
The food, views, and people of Costa Rica were amazing. G-adventures made this vacation easy going with the lodging and transportation. I had a great time hearing life stories from the others in my group as well as sharing my own. I didn?t think I?d like the group travel setting but it was honestly the best route to go. You could go off and do your own thing or you could join in on the group fun, whatever suits you the best. Costa Rica is beautiful and I?m sure G-adventures picked out some of the best spots to go!

What a wonderful trip around Costa Rica with amazing guide Johnny Villalobos. Staying two nights at each hotel set the right pace. The food was very high quality throughout, although prices are close to European, so take plenty of dollars. Tortuguerro nature reserve and watching the turtles nesting was a massive highlight, along with the walks in the Jurassic like cloud rain forests. Make sure you take binoculars to see the wonderful array of wildlife as they are very difficult to spot in the jungle. Overall, it exceeded expectations as Johnny really made each experience so easy and interesting. Pura Vida!

Exploring the cloud forests and rainforests was an unforgettable experience, and we encountered a wide variety of animals along the way. The accommodations were top-notch, and the entire trip was exceptionally well-organized. Thank you for this incredible adventure!
