COSTA RICA
Costa Rica is a magical place of wonder and there are plenty of things to do for every type of traveler.
The stunning country of Costa Rica is located in the middle of Central America, between Nicaragua and Panama. It is at the top of many people’s Bucket List because they want to experience the beaches, zip lines, sunsets, waterfalls, scenery, birds, wildlife, and so much more.
In our travels around the world, Bill and I have been to Costa Rica several times and we keep coming back for more! We have spent extended time exploring areas such as Manuel Antonio/Quepos, La Fortuna/Arenal, Monteverde/Santa Elena, and Tamarindo.

Costa Rica is an amazing place full of wonder, wildlife and water. You definitely want to come for several weeks as there is so much to do and explore.
