Below are some of the most frequently asked questions.. If the answer to your question is not listed below, please submit it to buenaventura [@] ticoguidetravel.com
What should I bring?
Yourself first and foremost!
Headlamp (the Petzel ones are good)
Long-sleeve light weight shirt (that you don't mind getting dirty or torn)
Light-weight pants (that you don't mind getting dirty or torn
Swimsuit (for swimming in the river and swimming holes)
Good book to read
Organic Insect Repellent (suggest Buzz Away available at Whole Foods or Rainbow)
Are there a lot of mosquitos, bugs and snakes?
Buenaventura is located in the tropical rainforest, and in one of the most biodiverse places on Earth, so we have a range of insects, bugs and snakes, yet most of the harmful ones aren't seen or encountered much, and we do our best to make sure to keep the accommodation areas clean and safe.
We don't have a lot of mosquitos or bugs around the houses, cabins and other open areas, but once you start trecking in the rainforest, you're bound to find a few, so its best to wear a long sleeve shirt, pants, and some Buzz Away or other mosquito repellent.
