From Costa Rica's rain forests to the Baja desert and reefs of Belize, Mexico and Central America harbor an astounding array of habitats and species. Witness millions of monarch butterflies in Mexico’s forested highlands, 30-ton gray whales nurturing their young in Baja’s lagoons, and colorful hummingbirds flitting about the cloud forest. Nowhere are the keen eye and intimate knowledge of our Expedition Leaders more valuable than amid this fantastic biodiversity, as we explore remote natural realms rich in wildlife and wonder.
