If any readers ever plan on visiting, I highly recommend Avispas Adventures for your excursions. Small, personalized tours with such friendly and knowledgeable staff - it's something that the bigger tour companies can not offer. They can be found at http://papagayotourscostarica.typepad.com/avispas_adventures/home/
We spent a total of 8 days, 7 nights. I had us a little busy, visiting Rincon de la Vieja, Palo Verde (for a boat tour), Zip lining in Miravalles, and a day trip into Nicaragua.
The following are just some of my favorite photos. More can be seen at www.facebook.com/triebephotography
