Adventures in Costa Rica

This eight-day Costa Rica itinerary moves your group through four genuinely distinct ecosystems — the urban energy of San José, the volcanic terrain around Arenal, the misty canopy of Monteverde Cloud Forest, and the Pacific beach community of Playa Hermosa de Jacó — giving students a rare chance to see how one small country holds so much biological and cultural variety. The through-line isn't any single landmark; it's the relationship between Costa Rica's people, its land, and the national identity built around protecting both. That perspective stays with students long after the motorcoach returns them to the airport on Day 8.

What teachers say

Verified by teachers — two ways.

On the left, the public Trustpilot reviews any group leader can write — and any future group leader can read. On the right, quotes from the private post-tour evaluation that every group leader fills out after their trip ends. See all teacher evaluations.

Reviews on Trustpilot are public and verified. Trustpilot prohibits companies from paying to have them removed — so what teachers say here is exactly what teachers said about traveling with Passports.

I think my tour went perfectly! Each day was packed with educational opportunities and we saved free time for the end in Cannes. My students are coming home with confidence about their French skills as well as their travel skills.

I have always appreciated how flexible we are able to be on Passports tours. This is one of the main reasons I have decided to continue traveling with the company. Thank you for another great trip!
