Review

What was the most memorable part of your tour?

Spending 20 hours doing an eight hour journey! Two hours in to or journey we had to head all the way back to San Jose due to a mud slide blocking the road. We were making good progress until we reached the banana bridge - a truck was stuck on it. We spent four hours waiting for it to be freed. We never made it to Puerto Jiminez because we'd missed our boat and had a stay in an extremely basic 'hotel'. For me it just added to the adventure!

How would you rate the tour leaders?

Excellant. I have travelled with a total of five ImTrav tour leaders and I have no complaints.

Do you feel your holiday benefited local people?

Yes, in that there was a lot of involvement with local guides and we visited a number of projects that ImTrav are involved in.

Do you feel that you got under the skin of a country?

Definitely. The tour leaders are incredibly knowledgable, as are the local guides.

What advice would you give to other travellers?

Travel with The Imaginative Traveller! Go with no expectations and you won't be dissapointed and accept anything that doesn't go quite to plan as part of the adventure.
