Donna B. | Traveled in July
Our tour guide, Steve was excellent. He sent info about getting to the hotel a week before we left home. He answered questions quickly. He sent links to the restaurants that we would be near at lunchtime. He was friendly and professional. The hotel was in an excellent downtown location, close to numerous restaurants. I would highly recommend this tour. It was fantastic staying in one hotel all week
Danielle M. | Traveled in July
This tour was breathtaking! Everything was amazing. The history that our tour guide Ben provided was so interesting . Going onto a Glacier was unbelievable. In Glacier National Park going up to the sun road was just beautiful the views were spectacular. I would go back again.

Our bus team were excellent!!! Both our tour guide Carol & our bus driver Grace were fantastic! They made sure we didn't miss a thing. It was so awesome to see all the animals in their natural environment. I would definitely recommend this tour to friends.
Barbara E. | Traveled in July
Our tour of Costa Rica was amazing! We saw so many animals and plants on our nature walks and boat rides. The people of Costa Rica were so welcoming. Each resort we stayed at got better and better. Best of all was our guide Becky. She was organized and very knowledgeable. Her love of her country was obvious to all. I loved the size of our group, 23. Our tour bus was brand new and had air conditioning, which was a welcome relief from the heat and humidity.

It is a great itinerary, but I don't believe you should include a second day in Bozeman. There should be more of an effort to get travelers into Yellowstone sooner rather than later. Otherwise, a wonderful tour.
John B. | Traveled in July
Our tour manager was excellent. She had a great eye for spotting large and small native flora and fauna. We felt like we saw the best of Costa Rica in a little over a week.
