I thought my experience was fantastic! From meeting people from all over the world and being in similar situations but going through fun activities together. It was a great way to make new friends and learn something new about everywhere. I found the places we visited to be beautiful and having learned a bit about each town was extremely fascinating. I would highly recommend.

Join us on this 4-hour tour if you want to take advantage of a Costa Rican night and discover some of the country’s nocturnal wonders. Start your trip from the small town of La Tigra, located just 30 minutes from La Fortuna. Here, you will meet the Mendez Family, a local family dedicated to farming and reforesting their patch of land.
Travel 600 meters (0.37 miles) from the family land to a small patch of regenerated rainforest. See the mirror-like lakes and wildlife in the area. You can expect to see a variety of nocturnal birds and mammals, insects, amphibians, bats, and more in this reforested area.
The trail will then take you to a frog sanctuary, an area dedicated to the preservation and natural reproduction of frog species. Here you will discover countless species of frogs, including dart and bull frogs, the smallest and largest species of frogs in Costa Rica.
Also see the spectacular Red-eyed tree frog and the beautiful Glass frog. A delicious Costa Rican dinner prepared on a wood-fire stove will be waiting for you by the time the tour is over. Enjoy your dinner while viewing the lights of the valleys of San Carlos. Return to your hotel in La Fortuna.

A wonderful voyage of discovery which takes you to each region of Costa Rica ...all made up of unique climate zones with varying birdlife and wildlife. I would hardly identify myself as someone who usually goes out searching for birdlife or wildlife, but this trip captivates you to get involved and go searching ...often early in the morning or in the evening. Costa Rica is incredibly lush with a small population and a government appearing to work hard on sustainability and protection of the environment. There were a lot of roadworks in evidence! All the accommodation was excellent and all the Lodges, each one different, were a delight. They allowed you the luxury of sitting on your own veranda allowing the birdlife and wildlife to 'come to you' as you were in their environment. Our trip spent its last night miles outside of San Jose centre which, although the hotel was lovely, was a disappointment for me as I'd wanted to spend the free afternoon exploring the vibrant downtown area with its parks, local shops, lovely buildings, museums etc but this wasn't feasible from Santa Ana. I've mentioned this to Exodus. We had a few downpours...mainly late afternoons, but only were out on a trip during one downpour and the Lodge provided everyone with huge ponchos...the rain didn't spoil the delight of the boat trip. Suggest a waterproof jacket, strong trainers or walking shoes and a camera with a good zoom lens should be priorities for packing!

Join us on this day tour to explore one of the lesser-known highlights of Costa Rica, Tenorio Volcano National Park, home to cascading waterfalls and turquoise pools. We will pick you up from your accommodation in La Fortuna and drive you to the national park.
Enjoy hiking on the national park's seven-kilometre-long trail and encounter enchanting sights along the way, starting with the magical Rio Celeste Waterfall and a beautiful natural lagoon formed by a river. Hike up to the observation deck from where you can enjoy amazing views of the Tenorio Volcano.
Next come two unbelievable attractions: Las Ollas, where you can see fumaroles filled with boiling mud, and Los Teñideros, the place where the river acquires it unique color due to a chemical reaction. It's time to enjoy your lunch after you have seen both these highlights. We will drive you to your accommodation after that.

This was a challenging trip with a mixture of hard and easy cycling covering a number of different areas of this beautiful country. We had a good mixed group who gelled together very quickly and which made the time together very enjoyable. The trip covered many beautiful areas of Costa Rica with many opportunities to see the wild life and dramatic land and sea scapes.

This was the best introduction to Costa Rica and everything it has to offer travellers. A perfect blend of active and comfort, we had the option to be as adventurous (or not) as we wanted. Everything was well thought out and planned; a true "wellness" trip where we felt like we were living the best versions of ourselves. The flavours, hospitality and the good nature of the "pura vida" was with us from the moment we landed, and will be with us for a long time afterwards.

I wanted to start by saying thank you so much for such a thorough, comprehensive plan for our stay in your lovely country. From the start of working with you, I felt as though everything was covered. Your itinerary to us was easy to read, easy to share, and filled with enough information to get us excited about the visit. Then, the pacing of the entire trip seemed to be a perfect fit for my family. I already foresee us returning to experience Costa Rica again, based solely on the trip you crafted for us. We are quite grateful.

The timing, the excursions and activities, the restaurants, accommodations and travels were all so amazing, and there was never a dull moment. No wait I take that back. The dull moments is when we went to bed. I never wanted the day to end and I never wanted this trip to end. From the ceo to the new friends I made in our group, it was absolutely amazing. The wildlife, the beaches, the food, the parties, the home stay, I can’t even get started on the home stay. What a wholesome moment. The families were so sweet and welcoming.
I wanted to thank G Adventures and I wanted to especially thank Aaron, our ceo for always being organized and making this tour educational and fun.

The trip was well rounded with as much (or little) action as you like and I loved all of it. The group was great and we had a lot of fun together. Our CEO was very knowledgeable and fun to be around. I would recommend it to everyone who is looking for a couple of active weeks in Costa Rica!

This was an excellent trip! Our guide, Camilo, was brilliant - very knowledgeable about all nature - wildlife, birds and plants, as well as Costa Rica history and culture. He read the group really well, and was able to recommend tours he thought we'd enjoy. The driver, Miguel, was also great - very professional and experienced on the zig-zag roads and occasional muddy trail! We saw so much wildlife! I would highly recommend the trip to anyone interested in nature, I absolutely loved it!
