Live La Vida Pura

In Costa Rica, the local motto is, "Pura Vida." This translated means, “Living the pure life." It means taking time to appreciate the wonderful things all around us, big and small. You'll hear it at the end of almost every conversation as a kind of "be well," "enjoy life," and "take it easy" all rolled into one. Not a bad vibe for your vacation.

It's a vacation that won't cost a lot. The way International travel cost these days. Costa Rica is a great option. The trick is to pick a destination where tourism is developed so that it's safe and easy to get around, but not so developed that you feel as if you've never left home.
Arenal Volcano is an active volcano that is a fun family activity. Also be sure to check out Tabacon Hot Springs. It's nature’s version of a water park. Each landscape trail leads to a different surprise: a bridge, waterfall, or natural pool.

You can get back to nature with a wake up call from howler monkeys. Your family will talk about it for years to come. Check out Manuel Antonio National Park. It's a small nature reserve with easy trails for the youngsters. There are guides that will help point out what you may not notice in the trees.
Santa Elena Cloud Forest Reserve in Monteverde
Don't miss a Sky Walk through a tropical rain forest.

On the outskirts of Manuel Antonio National Park, you will find white sand beaches where you and your kids can swim through schools of tropical fish, sign up for surf school or have a picnic on the beach and watch the monkeys sneak up and steal your lunch.

There are adventures for every age! There is a zip line swing through the treetops or horseback riding on the beach. Or if you don’t feel like being suspended midair on a zip line head to the Santa Elena Cloud Reserve.

Top 5 Travel Tips for International Travelers

1.Emergency Contact: Leave copies of your passport and itinerary with family or friends.

2.Health Care: Investigate if your insurance policy includes foreign medical treatment or if you need any vaccines for your destination. Take any medications with you.

3.Pack Smart: Dress conservatively to avoid attracting the attention of thieves. Also don’t pack so much that you’ll regret lugging around a heavy suitcase.

4.Think Safety: Research your destination’s suggested safety tips before you fly. Your Morris Murdock Travel Agent is a good resource for this information, as well as the U.S. Department of State.

5.Plan for the Unexpected: Take items that you will need if your trip is unexpectedly extended. I.e. money, medications, extra clothes, etc.

Is travel insurance really worth it?

There are hundreds of circumstances that could cause you to cancel your trip, return home early or force you to seek emergency medical treatment while traveling. To demonstrate the importance of purchasing travel insurance, and emergency travel services, here are 10 common examples of what could go wrong, and why we would be more than happy to help you choose the perfect insurance plan that will cover your needs.

1. It's 10 p.m. and you and your immediate family arrive at the airport for a connecting flight, only to find that your flight has been cancelled. Who can assist you with finding new flights to get everyone home?

2. Your bag was lost with your insulin inside. You need help to locate your bag as soon as possible and have your emergency prescription filled. Who do you call?

3. Your first visit to Europe, and your passport and wallet are stolen. Where do you turn for emergency cash, and how will you get your passport replaced?

4. You're involved in an accident and adequate medical treatment is not available. Who will help arrange and pay for a medical evacuation?

5. If your sister-in-law becomes seriously ill and you must cancel your trip, what happens to your non-refundable deposits or pre-payments?

6. You arrive in Jamaica and your luggage doesn't. If it's lost, who will help you find it? If it's delayed, who will pay for your necessities? If it's stolen, who will pay to replace it?

7. Your cruise line, airline or tour operator goes bankrupt. Who will pay for your non-refundable expenses? Who will help get you to your destination?

8. You're walking down a street in Rio and twist your ankle. Who can help you find an English-speaking physician?

9. Three weeks before your scheduled arrival, a terrorist incident occurs in the city to which you are planning to visit. Who will pay if you want to cancel your trip?

10. You are at a beach resort in North Carolina, and you are forced to evacuate due to an approaching hurricane. Who will help you evacuate and who will reimburse your lost vacation investment?

It is hard to plan for the unknown and it's always better to be safe than sorry. We want to ensure you have a wonderful vacation. Ask us about affordable rates we can get for you and your loved ones.
