I just came back from the same tour in December! The water/oceans/rivers were warm af & the weather was amazing. The fettuccine alfredo at the tree house restaurant was gas! Going to CR with EF is one the best decisions I’ve ever made. Great video & now I’ll do something else instead of Belize 😂
thank you! and i have a review about belize coming up but it’s really down to personal preference! i’m not much of a history lover so the ruins tours were kinda boring for me and the cave tubing/zip lining weren’t enough for me bc i’m an adrenaline junkie haha
@@lil_bino7 EF has just launched the new 'essential' trip type. technically my trip was 'standard' but I think they're pretty much the same! tbh only $300 is a pretty good price to upgrade and have nicer accommodations but if you'd rather save money stick with essential, I still had a great time!
the people who didn't go rafting in my group explored la fortuna during the free time. some booked a horseback riding excursion and others went to a spa! i'm sure there are lots of option on viator or trip advisor!
hey, so sorry i'm just seeing this now! we had about 30 people and the oldest in our group was 29 and we had one 18 year old with the rest of us being in our 20s! every group is a mixed bag (except for greece trips which tend to be younger). I will say don't stress too much about age though! when you're having fun all together no one's grouping up based on age. I'm in my younger 20s and have made so many friends in their later 20s on these trips! as long as you're open, you'll make friends:))
This is great thanks! I love how real you are compared to the other reviews I've seen hahaha
ofc! and hahaha i try to be as real as possible so people know what to expect, hope it helped:)

Was your trip a Plus or essential trip? I'm thinking about going next dry season. Essential was 300 less

this is so detailed thank you!
I love Pri! She’s absolutely amazing and so cute ❤
Superb video very informative thank you - I am heading to Costa Rica in March 2023 to shoot video content for my channel
Do you know how much the weekend international trips were?( Columbia or Panama)
What would you do if you didn't buy the White Water Rafting part

How many people were in your group and what was the age range? Worried I’ll be the oldest and not fit in if everyone else is 18 (I’m 29)

Did you only have one roommate throughout the whole trip or only at certain accommodations?
one roommate throughout the whole trip at every accommodation!
Did you do standard?
yes! I did the standard trip
@@annarichter_ I was under the impression with the standard trip you stay at hostels not hotels!
it’s a mix of hotels and hostels! we stayed at 2 hotels at the beginning and end of the trip and 2 hostels in between.
