Gabriela B | Traveled in January
Truly amazing experience. Close to nature, with so many animals. A great itinerary allowing us to do organized activities but also including a few hours of free time every day.
Becks | Traveled in January
Costa Rica is a real adventure that our two teenage boys relished. A great mix of wildlife, adrenaline and travel that took us off the beaten track and gave us a taste of the real Costa Rica. My eldest son appreciated the fact we weren’t “stuck in tourist traps” but explored some of the history and culture of each region. Their highlights were the whitewater rafting, zip -lining, speed boat ride to Corcovado and hanging out in Dominical with the surf, monkey, iguanas and toucans. The hotels were really great quality and our guide was super knowledgeable on everything from wildlife to restaurant recommendations.
Markus | Traveled in September
I have always been an all inclusive resort guy until my fiance brought me on this "jungle adventure ". Everything leading up to this I was skeptical and definitely not a good travel partner. The moment we hooked up with Manuel our guide and he took control, it absolutely changed my opinion about everything. This man was extremely knowledgeable and warm to all guests on this tour. This was the trip of a lifetime and we are already planning our next G adventures for our trip to Italy 2025
