Retirement Travel Program

 

This all-inclusive travel option, specifically designed with retirees in mind, provides a small group dynamic catering to the interests of course participants.

A professional, bilingual guide accompanies the group from the moment you walk out the doors of the San Jose International Airport to your departure day, when the tour is complete and you are armed with your newly acquired Spanish skills, souvenirs and unforgettable memories.

Through Spanish classes you are exercising your mind and through the tours were you are rejuvenating your spirit as you take in the natural beauty of this tropical paradise. We invite you to participate and find out what it is to live the "Pura Vida" and meet the wonderful locals fondly known as "Ticos"

The typical itinerary (15 days) is available to individual students and is designed for no more than 16 participants (minimum 4 participants).

"This program should be re-named or sub-titled "VIP" because that's how were treated from start to finish.  Every aspect of this program from maid service to teachers to guide (Johnny) rated an at or 5 stars.  We will be coming back again for sure.  If you are looking for a great adventure with no hassles this is it."

"My husband and I were part of the wonderful retirement program!  The apartments in Heredia and Monteverde were very comfortable and cleaned for us every day.  The Spanish classes were fun and informative.  Ellen and Magaly were both very helpful to us learning and relearning Spanish also the CPI staff was always very friendly and helpful with any questions we had.

"El programa de Retirement Travel puede enseñarle español y mucho de la naturaleza y la cultura de Costa Rica.  !Es una vacación perfecta!

También las personas de CPI son muy amables y hacen todo para dar sus clientes experiencias maravillosas.

"CPI Retirement travel was an amazing travel experience.  My guide Johnny was very knowledgeable about  the people and customs of C.R., as well as the plants and animals.  The choice of activities was excellent.  I really enjoyed the language classes.  My instructor Royner encouraged me to find my "Spanish voice"

Thank you for helping me to find an appropriate class level.  Royner was such a great teacher, patient and very knowledgeable.

"This was such a wonderfull experience. Our Spanish really improved and we saw a lot of different aspects of Costa Rica.  This was such a bargain.  We got way more than what we paid.  We will certainly pass the word around about this great program".
