From
£2,899
including UK flights
One of the best we have ever had. The whole trip was memorable for two main reasons – the variety of scenery and the superb wildlife. (more)Tim Graham
Included memories are - Spider monkeys swinging jumping above us to reach the trees on opposite side of jungle river, finding red eyed tree frogs at night... an incredible display by the resplendent quetzal during a courting session (more)Paula Cooke
The stay at Laguna Lodge was an amazing start with river trips and accommodation overlooking the river. Seeing Sloths close up and watching the antics of the capuchin monkeys was fun. (more)Jean Thirkettle
From
£1,170
excluding flights
Costa Rica is a lovely place to visit but had we known it was so expensive we
would never have signed up to a holiday that didn't have a lot of included activities and meals included. (more)Ian Halliwell
All of it was memorable...each place visited is so different... it's hard to choose. Monteverde for its lush vegetation, but boy can it get cold at night...and tortuguero for its wildlife. (more)Linda Whittingham
Seeing turtles was the most exciting part of the holiday (more)Fiona Weir
From
£1,881
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
Snorkelling in Caye Caulker, Belize, was an amazing experience! Nurse sharks, stingrays and turtles, not to mention oodles of brightly coloured fish, seemed completely oblivious to our presence, and Hol Chan Marine Reserve, with its dazzling array of corals and fish, was stunning. What a fantastic day! Just as good, but for different reasons, was the memorable Actun Tunichil Muknal (ATM) cave - wading through water; scrambling up, over and under rocks; and marvelling at the... (more)Laurie Munslow
From
£2,150
excluding flights
The most memorable moment was waking early in the morning to hear the strange bird calls and seeing the dawn. A holiday of a life-time. (more)Angela Wood
Achieving crossing the country from coast to coast only by bike, hiking, kayaking and rafting. A great adventure and experience. I loved it! (more)Alejandro Hahn Menacho
From
£2,593
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
Fantastic insight into many different cultures. Stunning and varied scenery in wonderful hot weather from the might of the Panama Canal to the jaw dropping beauty of the rain and cloud forests to the awesome splendour of the region's volcanoes and craters
Tips?
Do as much research as possible before your trip - I wished I had done more!
Try and learn some basic conversational Spanish - I wish I had learnt more!
Local benefits?
Tourism is an infant business... (more)Douglas Newlands
From
£3,399
including UK flights
A full-on trip! Wildlife galore.
I will definitely be back in Costa Rica soon. (more)Jenny Abbott
I loved the Cloud forests and the rainforests especially being able to walk some of the trails on my own as then I can experience the forest more quietly and directly... (more)Alison Pelikan
Didn't see as many birds as I expected; one needs to be interested in lichen, lizards, termites, ants, spiders etc as well! And I was also disappointed by the lack of mountain scenery. (more)Maryanne Roach
From
£706
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
I think all of it. Loved every single minute and was extremely lucky with the tour guide (Vin) and the group!
Tips?
I would say to not expect luxury accommodation or to have hot water throughout but it is really worth it! Also be prepared that your days in Boquete
will be much cooler than the rest of the trip so I would suggest bringing long trousers and warm cover up clothes as many people on our trip got caught out
by the drastic change in temperature up in the... (more)Gabriela Stamenova
