Reviews of Central America Family Tours
- Costa Rica Family Experience
Great experience! Packed a lot in.
- Family Costa Rica Rainforest and Wildlife Adventure
All good, everyone had a great time and the whole package was great. One minor comment, and perhaps this is actually about CR itself, but none of the places we ate at seemed to do much in the way of kids portions. So, we seemed to waste a lot of food!
