About this trip

 Imagine the possibility of living within nature and protecting the most ancient and wonderful animals of the ocean. Be part of the solution in sea turtle conservation strategies while experiencing an authentic immersion in a community surrounded by biodiversity and exuberance. Live the jungle up close and enjoy the wonders that the land of the volcanos offers.


Week 1 volunteer with an award winning NGO and Week 2 explore two ecotourism hot spots: La Fortuna & Monteverde.


  Nesting season for turtles on the Pacific Coast is commonly between July and December. This is when the turtles come ashore to lay eggs on the beach. Please remember that the turtles are wild animals and sightings are never guaranteed, even during nesting season. The projects operate year round and vital work is always being carried out to support the conservation of the animals and their environment. In this unique experience, you'll be hands-on in the protection of marine and terrestrial life resources such as night patrols, beach cleanups, reforestation and more. Work varies.

I loved, loved, loved my experience traveling with Alma Travel Group. Kim and Alex are amazing, inviting, and very smart individuals - each and every place and person we encountered during our days was made more impactful by the prior connections they had with our host or any knowledge the duo could share with us. Staying in Casa Alma in Costa Rica was a delightful experience, from the home-cooked meals by Flores to the welcoming atmosphere of the backyard and yoga studio, it made coming back after eventful days even more rewarding. I would definitely travel with them again as their travel practices are everything I wish (and encourage others to embody) to be attentive, positively impacting, and joyous! I have so much love for Casa Alma and all the people they introduced me to and will recommend others to travel with them as well as soon as they are able. xoxo

What an experience! Excellent itinerary to cater for many varieties of activities. Also allowed for flexibility when the need arose. Kim and Elisha were great hosts - nothing was too much trouble. They both have an excellent manner in communicating with the group and were relaxed and fun loving. Kim’s local knowledge was very helpful. Accommodation was ideal at each destination and the food was delicious. It was fantastic to be away from mainstream tourism and really experience the true culture of Guatemala and Costa Rica! Pura Vida!

Transfers to Antigua from Guatemala were well organised and easy to find. The house we stayed in was comfortable and location ideal. Kim was a fantastic host, welcoming and very knowledgeable. Lots of fun and laughter. Would highly recommend!

The kindness, knowledge and professionalism of Alma Travel is unmatched. Kim and Alex made the trip so enjoyable. The "local" experience added such a wonderful element. I highly recommend Alma Travel! Pura Vida!
