We were very impressed with our tour across Costa Rica. Our trip leader Juan Carlos and his support team were well organized, knowledgeable, and fun to spend time with. They also kept us well fed with delicious meals and snacks, most of which were made from scratch. The logistics behind this trip were more than I had expected, switching back and forth from hiking, biking, rafting and kayaking, but we never had to wait to continue our next leg. Thank you to the folks at World Expeditions for setting up our trip.
I booked this trip for my daughter and me. She wanted action and adventure, every day, and this trip delivered. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the hotels. Much nicer than I expected, given the low cost of this to her. Most of the transportation was fairly high-quality as well. The bus too, and from the rafting was nothing fancy, but certainly nothing to worry about. Be prepared to spend a little more time than you might expect in transit. That's a function of Costa Rican infrastructure. Lots of one lane roads means travel between cities can be really slow. But the scenery is gorgeous. If you just consider it part of the adventure, and enjoy it, it's not a problem. I highly recommend this trip. It had everything we wanted.
If your into adventure, this is for you. Very well organized and very well run, everything is done for you. All you have to do is have a great time!
