Picked up early this AM and nice to know there are others going with us to Torteguero. In fact, one of the people on the bus actually went to my high school and no one went there. That was a trip and so cool to compare notes on classes (we both had beach for PE). We drove until we stopped at Selva Tropical for lunch. This is a location that a lot of tours stop at for a meal. They have a butterfly area, cool gardens, and the food was pretty good as well. From there we drove to a boat dock and off we went to the lodge. Turtle Bay Lodge is the only one in the Torteguero area that is on the beach. Very cool there, ocean, black lagoon, canal, huge plants ( prehistoric), all kinds of animals. A nice walk on the beach to the black lagoon. There is a farm near the lagoon, and the cattle drink out of the ocean.
Adventure Life took care of everything! All we had to do was show up when we were supposed to, which made our first trip to Costa Rica largely stress-free and incredibly fun. Our trip reps, Hannah and Mariethony, were helpful and responsive, getting back to us by email usually within a few hours. Our accommodations were all great, and we got incredibly blessed with some absolutely stellar guides and drivers.
Our Jungle & Beach trip was an excellent balance of adventure and rest. We got to try out a lot of different activities, including snorkeling, hiking, white water rafting and kayaking, while also partaking of some rest around the pool or by the ocean. We enjoyed seeing and exploring the beautiful Caribbean side of the country.

For our first trip to Costa Rica, Adventure Life designed a tour that meets the interests, ecological and adventure, of our party; but also takes into account our physical limitations sine we are all septuagenarian. We are looking forward to the trip.

COSTA RICA a trip of a life time travelling round this beautiful country. All went like clockwork even when the weather was against us and all transfers seemed to be part of the holiday not a chore. Would definitely use Adventure Life again having previously used them 20 years ago!!

Our Costa Rica trip was amazing! Kassandra planned everything and the excursions, hotels, overall organization were outstanding. Everything worked out smoothly, the excursions guides were knowledgeable allowing us to see so much of the fauna and flora of the country. The hotels were great as well, all in fantastic locations and with beautiful views.
