Why travel? Why I’m passionate about travel Culture is sights, sounds, smells, tastes My own experience in Spain--- independence, leadership, self-confidence Why this tour is great for our group Great place to start, “close” to home, safe, active, connect to school Help students develop a global perspective

Costa Rica to my list this Past summer! Traveling and experiencing different Hispanic cultures have been among the best experiences of my life! I was so excited to add Costa Rica to my list this Past summer!

Our tour From volcanoes to the coastal dry forest, Costa Rica’s natural beauty is awe-inspiring. Relaxing in therapeutic hot springs, zipping through a forest canopy filled with monkeys and macaws, hiking to La Fortuna Waterfall, your students will marvel at Costa Rica’s natural beauty and amazing biodiversity. Seeing it firsthand will inspire a lasting respect for the environment.
