    A very nice sampling of Costa Rica: cloud forest, volcano, Caribbean beach. The tour guide, Jonathann was excellent. Good for those looking for moderate physical activity: some white water rafting, biking, hiking, with options for more (zip line, etc), a visit to a wildlife sanctuary, waterfall swim, more. Travel between was by public buses, hotels were clean, comfortable, modest. Small group size, international mix of travelers.
