After celebrating her 50th anniversary in travel, our Senior Tour Consultant, Alice has been just about everywhere. What places are among the top on her list? We asked her. "Costa Rica is one of my favorite places in the world. It’s beautiful and is the oldest republic in the Western Hemisphere. They don’t even have an army. They are “The Switzerland of Central America, said Alice.”
Besides the eco-friendly parks, lodges and populace, there are the volcanos! Arenal is probably the most famous as it spews red-hot lava into the air almost every night for a spectacular sight. But my favorite is Poas. It’s about a 2 hour or so drive from San Jose. It’s in a rainforest so it’s really wonderful to be standing in a cool drizzle, looking into the volcano and seeing the smoke rising. It’s actually possible to get close enough to the edge to look down into the crater. A truly wonderful place!
