| jackweesha70's Full Review: Costa Rica |
I have traveled to many places in my day, and one of my favorites has been Costa Rica. Costa Rica is not a dangerous country, unlike many Central American and South American countries, such as Costa Rica's neighbor, Nicaragua. It is pretty expensive (price depends on tour, etc.) but well worth it. If you travel to Costa Rica, I recommend that you take a tour (I traveled with Wilderness Travel, my favorite company which I have gone to Singapore and Tanzania with). On my tour we participated in many exiting activities such as kayaking through a river and taking stops to notice all of the wildlife, we went scuba diving, saw dolphins and whales while sailing, and went hiking and biking through beautiful rain forests. The food was good, although it is very repetitive (for breakfast we normally had rice, beans, bacon, eggs, and toast.) For dinner there was a wide variety of food, and often we ate at delicious resteraunts. You will love the pizza there! If you are a surfer, Costa Rica should be right up your ally, the waves are huge, and the beaches are amazing. We visited a black sand beach which was spectacular. One of my favorite experiences in Costa Rica was going to a world class hotel/ resort on the last two days. The menu was spectacular, and it was at the base of a volcano! There were natural hot springs which you were free to go in, as well as a hotspring waterfall which you could jump off. There was a HUGE hot pool equipped with a huge marble slide and a bar in the middle. Costa Rica is a great vacation for families and singles! If you want to know more about Wilderness Travel check out my review on Tanzania, and also check out my other travel reviews such as ski resorts and other spectacular vacations!
