CapSciComm Colleagues: For the first time ever, Capital Science Communicators will be taking our Science Tour abroad — to the mountains and beaches of Costa Rica!
CapSciComm Science Tour Abroad: Costa Rica!

All-Inclusive Package Including
Airfare, Lodging, Meals, and Scheduled Activities

(See PDF for full deposit schedule)
This group tour will be a special opportunity for our Sacramento scicomm community to take our curiosity overseas — and serves as a major fundraiser to sustain CapSciComm operations in the near term.
Operated by Muse Journeys, Inc. and planned in consultation with CapSciComm Executive Chairs, the tour itinerary is equal parts scientific and equal parts fun! We’ll stop by La Selva Biological Station, lodge at the foot of Volcán Arenal, relax in the waters of Baldi Hot Springs, prowl the Pacific beaches for olive ridley sea turtles, and sample local coffee and cacao products. Interspersed with these outings will be time for whitewater rafting, zip-lining, horseback riding, and bonding with friends familiar and new!
The tour package is all-inclusive of airfare, lodging, meals, and activities (see Full Itinerary and Fee Schedule for details and exceptions). Part of your fee will help us fund one or more Capital Region-based researchers to accompany us on our journey and share their scientific insights — and a small percentage will go towards CapSciComm’s general operating fund, boosting our ability to bring you amazing professional and social events in our region!
