Outward Bound Costa Rica: Girl Scout Destinations

Thank you for your response, we do take feedback very seriously at OBCR and have reviewed the issues you have raised here. To clarify, no students with OBCR currently travel to Nicaragua. Our instructors try their best to take photos of all participants during their program, however their focus is first and foremost the instruction and care of the group members. We highly encourage participants to bring cameras with them as all our programs are cell phone free, a highly beneficially experience for a lot of our participants. We share as much information as possible during our two info sessions that cover topics including accommodation, facilities, packing lists etc. A large part of the cultural immersion on program is that students get to experience what life is like for the communities they are living alongside which, in turn, broadens their world view. We have checked in with Cassidy’s instructors and they have shared with us that the group managed to complete all their dives and were all scuba certified, released many sea turtles, and helped create a positive impact on the local environment through clean ups and reforestation projects. They took care of Cassidy’s grazed knee when she tripped and reported a few tummy aches during the program. Please do reach out to us at [email protected] if you wish to discuss anything further.

Olivia, we're so glad you're leaving Costa Rica as a better person. It was an honor to have you on course with us! Come back and see us again soon.

Thanks for the kind words about our guides, Sofia! We're so glad you had an amazing time. Come back and see us again soon!
