can be seen. Participants will visit a spa close to the volcano which has
natural hot-water springs.

cultivations of strawberries, black berries, ferns and ornamental flowers.

Sarapiqui River. Later they will penetrate the heart of Costa Rica's famous
Braulio Carrillo National Park, an immense tract of mountainous rainforest
with breathtaking views.

|
Beach & Rain Forest
tour>:
Students travel to the Pacific coast to the Carara Biological Reserve. They
visit one of the few places showing the transition between rain forest and
the dry tropical forest. This characteristic has made this trip very informative,

mammals.

enjoy the hotel facilities, as well as the beach. |
