Rating: Summary: Best Guide for Eco Adventures Review: This book was everything we needed in a guidebook, with more then we knew we needed! Honest reviews of hotels and insider tips for restaurants, we used this guide mostly to steer us to some of the most interesting eco adventures in the country. We saved much time and plenty of money with this guide. Wonderful photos too.

Rating: Summary: Not worth the space in my suitcase Review: This was 1 of 3 books I bought for a trip to Costa Rica and I can't say I relied on it for information at any point. Every time I opened the book to find a hotel or restaurant or choose the next destination, I closed it in frustration. I might have enjoyed it more if I hadn't 2 other guides which I found to have more comprehensive information regarding the options of where to eat, sleep and adventure.
A previous reviewer was correct in the assessment that the book is not all whitewater and rappeling, although there are tons of adventures to experience there and basic information about which of those activities to do and where to find them can be MORE easily found in other books or by speaking to someone at your hotel.
After I bought my souveniers and such, I don't know why I crammed the book back in my bag.
