Hi, Is anyone booked on the Rainforest Adventure trip, Costa Rica starting on the 2nd November 2008? I would be nice to get an idea of who else was booked on the trip and how many others are expected.
Rainforest adventure Costa Rica
Hi, Has anyone done the rainforest adventure trip in Costa Rica?, if so it would be nice to hear your thoughts on clothing - what to take etc. We're planning on going in November, which according to Imtrav is after the rainy season, but other websites say November is the end of the rainy season. Any recommendations on waterproof gear? We were thinking of taking ponchos to carry around with us and use when needed- as humidity will be high and if rainy, surely it will be a tropical downpour that doesnt last a long time? Also, would like to know if its a good idea to take waterproof shoes etc for walking round forests etc - not sure how wet underfoot it will be, and we have also been told that it gets very cold around the volcanoes due to altitude? And that in the Limon province it is best to wear long sleeves and trousers due to mosquitos? Any info or advice would be great. Thanks
Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Panama, from the Rainforest Adventure tour, and the Quetzal Quest!
If you like beautiful beaches, crazy active volcanoes, and tons of wildlife, then this part of Central America is for you! Costa Rica is a wildlife photographers dream. I could only do so much with my little handheld, but hopefull these will give you an idea of whats in store for anyone coming to this part of the world. Nicaragua is one of the nicest, but least visited parts of Central America, and the colonial city of Granada is fantastic! Panama is a surprising country, very modern, and very poor at the same time. The beaches are great, the coffee is some of the best in the world, and the people are friendly! Here are some shots from the Rainforest Adventure tour in Costa Rica, and from the Quetzal Quest tour that takes in Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Panama, and includes a visit to Corcovado National park in Costa Rica!!! It is by far the most beautiful National Park I have ever visited anywhere in the world! All of the photos are from our tours!
