Super stress free way of travel. Everything went so smoothly and the tour was amazing. We learned an incredible amount about the country and its flora and fauna.
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. Bill Maybe next time you could do something about all the rain.
Loved every minute of the trip. Saw lots of amazing animals and experienced diverse regions of Costa Rica. The tour guide was very efficient and looked after everyone really well
Despite being rainy most of the trip, it was a fantastic experience. We had a great group, and Cesar did a wonderful job keeping everyone engaged and active despite the weather. It rained every day, and I still had a great time!
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.
