Rainforest Cloudforest Volcano and Beach

Marika, Will, Kim and Bruce are off to explore, engage and enjoy Costa Rica.

For fifteen fabulous days we will get up close and personal with rainforest critters on boats in a Caribbean coast nature preserve hours and hours away from the nearest road, sleeping in an eco-lodge without windows (OK, there are screens); trekking cloudforests in the highlands on trails, walkways in the canopy and kilometers of ziplines above the trees to see some of Costa Rica's 9,251 buttefly and moth species, 1,400 orchid species and over a third of a million species of insect (ouch, what was that!);; then cozy up to one of the world's most ten active volcanos for a couple nights; finally relaxing at a resort on the northern Pacific coast (hmmm just a day trip away from Nicaragua - I wonder...).
