“Natural Habitat Adventures developed an excellent, custom Costa Rica itinerary for a March Spring Break trip with my teenage nieces. We took many parts of the Family Costa Rica Adventure and added two days in Tortuguero National Park. The Saturday-to-Saturday agenda included visits to three beautiful lodges.

“Early in the morning, we came upon a mother tiger and her two precious three-month-old cubs bonding together out in the open. Mother tiger was licking her two cubs and clearly loving them. It was a privilege and an honor to sit quietly observing this behavior.

Exploring the Amazon rain forest is a bucket list adventure for any nature lover. Peru’s vibrant environment, teeming with wildlife, is also one of the most threatened wild places on Earth. Some of World Wildlife Fund’s most important conservation work is focused on protecting the Amazon as a globally important ecosystem.

“On one of our last days in Yellowstone, we drove past Blacktail Pond, but were not very hopeful about activity there. Earlier, we had seen a grizzly bear eating the carcass of a bison that had fallen into the pond and died after being unable to get out.

“Trip of a lifetime, it’s not every day you get to pet a gray whale, or two. We saw four blue whales, hundreds of dolphins and dozens of humpback whales. The Nat Geo Sea Bird staff and crew are the best.”

One of my more important lessons as a traveler came early—when I was 19 and backpacking around Europe with my best friend—and it’s never failed me: deviations from your planned itinerary, whether chosen or forced, always result in unexpected and delightful experiences, if you are open and allow them to unfold.

“The whole monarch butterfly tour was magical and most memorable, from start to finish. We had a small group of just 13 people, plus the two tour guides, so we had lots of opportunities to sit in various groupings and one-on-one in order to get to know each other.

“Friends ask us, ‘What was the highlight of your Grand India Wildlife Adventure?’ One day, we might say it was seeing five tigers—a male, ‘his lady’ and their three cubs. We will NEVER forget the male tiger’s warning growl that we were encroaching on his territory.

My sister, who is also my favorite travel partner and lifelong best friend, lives 1,600 miles away, so we don’t have the opportunity to see each other frequently. We decided to take a dream “sistercation” to the Galapagos Islands with Nat Hab, as we love wildlife, nature and outdoor adventures.

“Marco Fallas was a tireless guide, lugging a spotting scope up and down mountain trails for hours each day. After a long day, he offered to take us into the jungle after dark, where we encountered an armadillo and followed tree frog calls, spotting several with gorgeous colors.
