Eco Tour



Eco Tours

 I had the pleasure of going to Costa Rica which has a great reputation as a eco destination as I am considering doing another EcoSea project it was a good thing to see what they were doing somewhere other than Asia. I did the 3 in one day tour which had the coffee plantation which was very good the volcano could have been good except for the rain and the peace resort which had basiaclly a zoo and the waterfalls.

The eco tours in Costa Rica have been around for a long time and they seem to be doing OK I was surprised to see that there were a couple of the destination that were activcly upgrading there facilities. 

The parks if there was a negitive did not have as much to see that was live as I had expected but they did do a OK job on showing the habitat and the preserved specis.  The butterfly place only had 4 or 5 butterflys that you could see alive and they were all over the place inside the inclosure.  The frogs also was a little bit of a disappointment that we did not see more of the specis that they hads displayed on the walls. What was interesting was that they had these cutouts of where the frogs were and you look and you look and no frogs.  The hummingbirds were cool and there were 4 or 5 specis there.

The crater was I am sure a great view but we did not see it but the trails there were awesome as we were in some of the densest jungle I have ever seen and I have seen a few from Cambodia Malaysia Australia and Hawaii.
