After an early morning play in the surf we have breakfast and then drive out to the base of Sierra Negro Volcano. This active volcano last erupted in 2005. In the blazing heat of the equatorial sun, we climb along a trail for about an hour before reaching a viewpoint at the edge of a 4 mile wide caldera, the opening at the top of the volcano (2nd largest in the world). Below is a vast sea of hardened black lava with steam emanating from the various cracks. Our hotel has packed us all hearty snacks so we hang out here for a while enjoying the view and recovering from the uphill climb. After an easier (and cooler as it clouds over) hike down again, we transfer to a local farm where we are served a wonderful lunch with all foods coming from the farm. I can't help wondering if the chickens free range grazing around the farm are looking for one of their lost buddies....Later in the day we try snorkeling again at a local site (off the shore) but the locals are feeling the intense heat as well and the area is packed with people. We end up back at Isabela lodge and Steve and I enjoy happy hour (Caiperinas!) while the kids get some well deserved kobo time.
Kevin got right on our request and had us booked within the week

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.
