Friends. Costa Rica (an understanding). Food. Geography. Wildlife. Attractions. To much to put into words. This trip is well thought out and prepared. It is perfect and I would do it again. Dustin E - Rollins College View Entire Review
My time in Costa Rica was valuable in providing perspective on the functionality of protected area systems as well as information on ecosystems specific to that unique portion of the world. Shealyn F - Rollins College View Entire Review
