Want something different? A holiday in Central America is the perfect choice.
WHY GO?
Lush rain forests, animal encounters and partying with the locals are all part of the fun on a twin-centre holiday in Central America. Start with jungles and zip-lining in Costa Rica, then catch a short flight to El Salvador for a caffeine and history fix you’ll never forget. Plus, Costa Rica has been named one of the best-value long-haul holidays for 2017, beating Australia and the US in a Post office money report. Sounds good to us!
