This tour was my first group tour experience and my first tour with Collette, I loved it and it changed my life. I took this tour in February 2020 and some of the trip has changed, such as the hotel in Arenal. I did not love the previous hotel so this is a good change. The other hotels on the tour were absolutely amazing. Check out my blog post below for details.
