Any experiences in central america here? Costa Rica? [View all]

We are early 70s and in pretty good shape for walking, moderate hiking and of course marathon shopping for indigenous artistry. Eco tourism and the local experience for English speakers are important to us. Any advice for central american retreats is what we're looking for.

Thanks!
