Hello.  I'm looking at ideas for next year and after watching a TV show called escape to Costa Rica, I'm intrigued. 

Has anyone been before and is it as glorious as the show made it appear? Did you feel safe?

thank you

Hi a very quick reply as I'm in a rush out!  I did this wonderful tour in 2014 and loved it - felt absolutely safe.  The wildlife especially at Tortuguero was fantastic.  Here's a link to the review I wrote:

Go for it!

Best wishes,

Hi Silverbird

I did this trip in March this year and felt safe all the time. This is a wonderful trip and I would encourage you to book it. You will find mine and Abbadave's reviews on the review section of this forum. We had an amazing time!

Kind regards

Jaya

Thank you for the response.  I will definitely look into this one.  The problem is, with Just You, there are too many trips to chose from   :huh: :huh: :huh: 😃

Hi- just to add, if you do opt for this trip research the weather conditions in advance wherever possible-  I did this trip in November 2016- unfortunately we got caught up in hurricane Otto- meant that much of the trip ( including Tortuguero) had to be cancelled/ rerouted- was a shame because CR is a beautiful country- we were lucky in Nicaragua- the weather improved and we had a very good local guide there also - made a difference. Of my dozen or so JY tours this was consequently the most disappointing

Hope that helps

  Thank you.  I think I might give the Americas a miss with the current weather situation.  I will look at Europe or Asia for this year.
