Highlights of Costa Rica

To much time wasted, especially the last day we could go nowhere and had to hang round the hotel. We could have easily left later in the day to reach San Jose. I hoped to re-visit the National Park. I don't have a good head for heights, but ended up going on the canopy walkways in Monte Verde, as the alternative was to hang around for 2 hours, and it wasn't cheap. For me it was a waste of money. Also in the original details from Explore an orchid walk was mentioned but this was not mentioned and when I asked I was told there wasn't time. I very much wanted to do this.

The highlights of Costa Rica tour enabled me to see a fair bit of the country, and its wildlife, in a short space of time, although, upon reflection, I think adding an extra day or two to it would be advantageous. The tour was well-organized, and the guide excellent. In general, the different accommodation used was good - it was all clean and offered decent facilities. To improve, my suggestion would be less time in La Fortuna, and more in Quepos, but that’s just my personal opinion.
