While exploring, trip members will experience full cultural immersion with local Costa Ricans. A major highlight will be living and working closely with a family on an organic farm. Participants will learn how to enjoy and respect the Costa Rican way of life.
Sign up online beginning Monday, August 17. There will be a mandatory pre-trip training session to prepare for the physical rigors of the trip, especially challenging hikes through the rainforest.
ORGT has partnered with "Go Green Adventure Company" to create a trip which lessens the negative impact of travelers on the environment. Mindful of vulnerable areas, trip leaders will plan activities in designated locations to reduce harm to the local habitat; but our efforts to protect the environment do not stop there. A portion of the funds from this trip will subsidize efforts to plant trees, rescue sea turtles, and build communities in Costa Rica.
