    This trip was just me and my friend. Two girls. We felt very safe with the tour guide and he made everything easy for us and explained everything perfectly. No issues at all for the duration and was pleased with my trip to Brazil.

    I really enjoyed the tour but had some reservations, the Guacho ranch tour was way too expensive, the transfors from airport was way too expensive Suggestive tips to bus driver and local guides were stated, but I did not see suggestive tips to tour director. Excellent hotesl and very good guides.The price of the Escape tour was very good.

    Jorge Avila was our wonderful proud Costa Rican guide. He was very warm, enjoyable, knowledgeable, and welcoming. He had insightful input to questions and potential issues likely of common concern. He was always open to questions and graciously repeated information. Each day had a thoughtful mix of educational, informal and personal info along with quiet moments that made the day quite enjoyable. Our tour had a happy mix of the cloud forest, jungle, and volcanic terrain and a dash of tourist/souvenir exposure that was just right for my expectations of flora and fauna exposure. Lodging was above my expectations and meals delicious with generous variety. Glad I went!

    Travel Support
    • GlobusOperatorWritten February 2023

      I would suggest you come in a day early to rest and prepare for your tour. You can arrive the day of, if that works for you as well. You can fly home on February 9, 2024, or if you would like, you can extend your stay. The additional night cost would be $232 per person per night for the night of February 9, 2024 and February 10, 2024.
