For most people, Costa Rica has become the destination that satisfies all their picture postcard desires. In fact, for all you Avatar film fans, we would be so bold as to suggest that the Costa Rican rainforest is the closest worldly comparison to the landscape on Pandora – except perhaps for the six-legged horses and hammerhead titanothere herbivores.
The white sandy stretches of beach are the most sought after in the world. From the summit of numerous active volcanoes you can look upon the dense tropical rainforest, bursting with an exotic array of wildlife. The biodiversity is carefully protected. Costa Rica seems to have set the standard for sustainable ecotourism with a model national conservation system.
So to get you out and about enjoying the celebrated ecotourism in Costa Rica, HostelBookers has teamed up with Marbella Tours to give you 15% off excursions. They offer guided tours to suit everyone including boat trips down the T?rcoles River, home to one of the world’s largest crocodile populations. For the serious thrill-seekers they suggest white-water rafting, quad biking or a trip above the rainforest canopy using adventure cables. Alternatively you could climb aboard the Manta Raya – the 52 foot catamaran – and set sail for Tortuga Island to discover the best snorkeling and swimming spots.
