In the morning, we land at Bachas Beach on Santa Cruz Island. We have an easy and short walk along the white sand beach, where we see sea turtle nests and meet with a scientist who is studying sea turtles. Afterwards, we go for a quick snorkel where we see sharks and myriad fish. The water is a bit murky, making it hard to see.
In the afternoon, we head to the Santa Cruz Highlands to visit the giant tortoises. This is a repeat visit from my trip 10 years ago, but it's lovely to revisit these prehistoric creatures. The Santa Cruz Highlands have a lush, tropical landscape unlike most of the other islands in the archipelago. We explore the lava tunnels and get VERY close to giant tortoises at El Chato. Back on board the ship, we feast on pistachio crusted mahi mahi for dinner, followed by hot apple crisp for dessert. We head up to the sun deck after dinner for a dance party and cocktails.
The info on the website was laid out very well. I did some comparisons with other tours and found Adventure Life met a lot of what I wanted in an Antarctica trip at the cheapest price. Requested a quote on Claudia contacted me right away. She answered a lot of questions the I had via email even though she offered to discuss via phone call. I’m more of an email person so appreciated how she accommodated that and answered all my questions. And when I was ready to book, she quickly got the ball rolling with getting our spots reserved on the trip my friend and I wanted. Thanks again, Claudia!

(1) great information on the website and throughout all the "materials." (2) Jane Packer is great: knowledgeable, responsive, takes a personal interest and tone, seems to care about the customer as a person not a sale.

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.
