ITINERARY
Join fellow students on a 7 or 9-day educational travel course in the rainforests of Costa Rica's Caribbean slope. You’ll travel by boat to Pacuare Reserve — a working field research station stewarded by EPI — and help scientists research and protect incredible species like howler monkeys, white-faced capuchins, and jaguars. Study species behavior, track jaguar presence and migration corridors using camera traps, and explore the impact of climate change on this sensitive ecosystem.
On all of EPI’s student travel programs, students participate in real-life, ongoing wildlife conservation projects with experts in their field. Lessons and activities are rooted in the NGSS standards and are designed to spark students’ passion for environmental science and conservation. It’s time to discover a student travel program like no other, where exploration and science go hand-in-hand!
