The Costa Rica Quest was an incredible journey. It is unlike any vacation I have been on. There were moments of exhaustion, frustration, and uncertainty, but the personal growth and experience that comes with this is second to none. Costa Rica is a beautiful country with rich history and friendly people. I would absolutely recommend this trip for anyone looking to get out of their comfort zone.

Our CEO (Deinor Alfaro) made the trip enjoyable. He was very helpful filling in the gaps and going above and beyond. G Adventures attempt to make the trip affordable is misleading, breakfast should be included as you have depart early most days. This trip is not for relaxing, it is active and you change locations a lot. Worth the effort as you get to experience so much of Costa Rica.
