14 Day Excursion - Discover Costa Rica

15 Days

Experience the rainforest, mountains, and coast of this tropical paradise Costa Rica is renowned for having proportionately more protected land than any other country, making it ripe for wildlife tourism. What is less known is the marvelous, often bizarre variety of animals from catatonic sloths, screaming Howler monkeys, screeching toucans, and nesting Green turtles. Throw in the Caribbean and Pacific coastlines and it is easy to see why so many return. This trip includes a few of our Citizen Science Departures. These special departures offer you the opportunity to be involved in the collection of freshwater samples during the trip. The environmental DNA information derived from this sample will contribute directly to the eBioAtlas; the world’s largest repository of flora and fauna species data, contributing to the conservation and restoration of biodiversity both locally and globally.
