Great trip!

The trip was amazing: We saw so many awesome sites, from walking on glaciers, to rafting down the Snake River, to seeing Old Faithful. All (were) wonderful experiences. Six national parks in just 10 days!

Lush green volcano with a peak surrounded by wispy clouds under a blue sky, framed by palm trees.
I’ve been fortunate in touring many countries, but our Volcanoes & Wildlife tour in Costa Rica ranks right at the top, and I highly recommend it. Our Tour [Director], Porfi, was very accommodating and did everything in his power to make our tour a success. ... We basically saw all the animals that the group was hoping to see. This tour is something all travelers should experience.
