If you want a gap year or travel experience that’s full of tropical wildlife, diverse environments from rainforest to beaches, and the opportunity to be part of eco-tourism initiatives – Costa Rica is the one.
Costa Rica is naturally rich in ecosystems and species; however, many environmental NGOs consider it’s natural environment fragile and vulnerable.
On a Raleigh Expedition in Costa Rica you’ll volunteer on environmental projects in national parks helping to preserve their natural resources. On the community project you’ll work on infrastructure projects that we support through partners with indigenous communities to increase access to education, water and sanitation.
