Dear Colleague,
We are pleased to announce that TerraNova Costa Rica has joined the Emerging Destinations portfolio.  TerraNova is a good match for us as while they can offer beach visits, they excel in showcasing Costa Rican adventures -- be it surfing, treks, fishing, whitewater rafting, helicopter rides or transfers. 

Take a look below at the latest news from our portfolio -- which is continuing to grow.  2020 is looking to be our best year ever and that is due to the support of you, our travel industry partners!  Many, many thanks,

Here's to a fabulous year!
