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.

Beyond my expectations! Kim and Alex consistently exceed expectations by going above and beyond to provide the highest quality and value, while still keeping us humble in experiencing these amazing places and people! This tour hit all the things I love when I travel - animals, nature, culture, history and getting to meet and work with the local people! If you haven't traveled with Alma Travel yet, what are you waiting for? This was my third adventure with them and am already signed up for another!

Discover Guatemala-Heart of the Mayan world-April 14-27 2024 Just wanted to commend AlmaTours for organizing such a fantastic tour for us. We did and saw so many amazing things on this tour. When Iarrived in Guatemala city, I was welcomed by Alex, which immediately made me appreciate the hospitality from the very start of our journey.. Our tour guide, Kim was very knowledgeable and briefed us of every aspect of the places we visited. The driver was experienced as he was able to take us to the busiest parts of the country as well as the rugged parts as well with ease. . Alma Tours provided us with great hotels, eateries . We would never have discovered these amazing places if we were going to do it on our own. Thank you Alma Tours. Kim was so verry patient kind and considerate to everyone of us making each of us feel special and important Kim has such a love for people and the country. .. We were given an opportunity to see these places and people first hand ... Did not feel like an outsiders perspective at all... The small amount of volunteer work we did made each of us feel important and With a purpose... Thank you so much for this opportunity to experience Guatemala.The way you showed it to us and for the life changing experience... Ps .. Climbing the volcano and roasting marshmallows in its core was definitely the cherry on the sundae.... .. Not sure when but I one hundred percent we'll travel with Alma Travel again and suggest it for anyone considering...Travel with a heart and soul..

Kim. and Alex are the best! If you are ready for a genuine experience of getting to know and feel the essence of a place, you can trust that they will provide for you. I am truly grateful for their time, guidance, knowledge and heartfelt presence that they bring to travel and it's people.

Traveling with Alma Group is more than a trip - it’s a full immersive experience. Kim & Alex are truly gifted at what they do. I felt safe and supported throughout the entire journey.
