Excellent trip, it met and exceeded our expectations. Our guide was superb, he was very knowledgeable and shared his wealth of knowledge beautifully. We saw a tremendous variety of wildlife and attribute that to the experience of our guide and the well thought-out and planned trip by Gadventures. Thanks.

It’s amazing how much I learned without studying a thing before I arrived in Costa Rica. I came for adventure and left with a body of knowledge that rivals a semester of learning. There was NEVER a moment of boredom. I liked the 14 day tour because it gave me time to enjoy each location and also participate in several of the optional activities. This was my 1st G Adventures experience and it won’t be my last.

National Geographic would not buddy up with a tour company unless they had the highest standards. This was my 1st journey with a Nat Geo - G Adventures tour and I would 100% go again and look forward to doing more such tours. Our guide was professional, knowledgeable, vigilant and reliable. We felt entirely safe with all of his recommendations. The tour was fabulous even though we had a lot of rain! The itinerary was excellent, activities were all fun and inspiring. Such a wonderful focus on nature and not commerce. The local guides were knowledgeable, enthusiastic without being fake and we all left with such a respect and awe for this beautiful gem of a country. One of the best trips I've ever had.
