You really planned a fabulous trip for us and we loved every minute of it. The ship [in Galapagos] was a wonderful choice. Costa Rica was enchanting. I'd go back anytime! There wasn't a glitch the whole time! Very unusual! Thanks so much.

Experience the wonder of transiting the Panama Canal
One of the world's great engineering accomplishments -- not to be missed.
The canal itself is an engineering feat, one of the notable man-made wonders of the world. The landscape it passes through is equally impressive. A cruise through the Canal allows you a unique vantage point to one of the most important waterways on the planet. The colorful molas, attire and lifestyle of the Cuna Indians is a highlight to experience. In Panama you’ll rarely be bogged down by masses of people at other, more popular tourist destinations, yet there is no shortage of beaches, mountains and rain forests to explore.
Active Costa Rica
Endless activities surrounded by natural wonders...
The country of Costa Rica may be small, but what it lacks in size, it more than makes up for with its biodiversity and the adventures that await you. Bordered by both the Caribbean Sea and Pacific Oceans, you can choose from a myriad options, from parasailing, paddle surfing and other water sports. Venture to the interior of the tropical country and strap yourself in for a zip line ride, hop on an ATV, and careen down a rushing river to take in a unique view of the dense jungles and volcanoes that stretch throughout the country. In the evening, finish off your adventures soaking in Tabacon’s natural hot springs. After all these activities, you’ll appreciate the comfort of our hand-picked resorts.
