"Your local knowledge of Costa Rica and your truly professional manner in handling the tour made it a most memorable experience for me and I am sure for everyone."

Van Christous, Alberta, Canada

"Frank, Karen and I wish to express our appreciation to you and your lovely wife, Michele for making our photo tour of Costa Rica so informative and memorable. Also please give our fond regards to Jorge for safely transporting us throughout the land of Pura Vida.

"Your expert, professional advice enhanced our photographic skills beyond our expectations. We particularly admired the way in which you offered advice on matters photographic. You were not dogmatic, but gave sound instruction backed up with good reason without being judgmental. You have rare pedagogic talents and a superb knowledge of your subject matter.

"Your and Michee's planning of our itinerary, and providing transportation and accommodations far exceeded our hopes. Your knowledge of the language and good relationships with your fellow Ticos was what we call in Louisiana 'Lagniappe' – an extra gift.

"We look forward to returning to your beautiful country, meeting more of your pleasant Tico friends, and filling our memory cards with hundreds more photos of the wonderful scenery, people and animals."

Tom and Karen McGee, Louisiana, U.S.A.

"If you are looking for a tour of Costa Rica to delightful "off the beaten track" locations, you probably can't do better than this. A great itinerary: from a close-up view of an active volcano; hikes through the jungle; a canopy tour; walks through small towns and local markets; to the spectacular Pacific Coast of the Osa Peninsula. Accommodation was excellent, consisting mostly of secluded lodges and inns.

Photographic opportunities were plentiful during the 10 days with sufficient variety to appeal to a wide range of interests in subject matter and artistic challenge, including birds and other wildlife; active volcanoes; people; architecture and street scenes and seascapes."

"Thank you so very much for your hospitality and professional knowledge you so willingly shared with us.

How does one select a favorite moment from such as: Pacific sunsets, volcano eruptions, hooting monkeys in the night, colorful butterflies everywhere, red-eyed green tree frogs, scarlet birds overhead, quaint villages with friendly people, all of which we enjoyed each day of our visit.

Best of all was meeting you and Michele, so now we can say we have new friends. All the best," Bob and Colleen Bevacqua Newport Beach, California, U.S.A.	© Colleen Bevacqua

"When you are bored or tired of the mundane trips you have had and are looking to go to really unique places, Frank's trips are as good as it gets!

How about a stop at a beautiful resort high in the hills overlooking the vast Pacific and being greeted and guided to your cabin by the owner (dressed in nothing but a bathtowel). Perhaps you would like to sit up all night to watch a spectacular night show as a volcano explodes across the valley or take a trip into the vast forest to the end of the road, forging rivers and struggling over basic trails in a 4 wheel drive unit to another excellent lodge above a pristine sand beach with not a soul in sight, (fabulous food here too). A scenic tour of a Serpentarium provides great access for photos and if you want, you get to handle some serpents too -- just the friendly ones though!!

Be sure to take lots of film -- you will use it. Admittedly Anne and I always go through a lot but this time we set a record what with all the available subjects -- 1000 shots each!! All in all a great trip, well done, and much appreciated. Thanks Frank!"	© Jack Wallace

"In July 1996 I participated in a week-long photo tour around the Trinity Bay area of Newfoundland that was organized and led by Frank Scott. I found the tour was very well organized, with visits to many photogenic locations, and ample time for
photography. There was also good food and accommodation provided, as well as a sense of camaraderie amongst participants. Altogether a very enjoyable experience."	© Norman Schwartz

"The Newfoundland Photo Tour was well organized with photo locations obviously well scouted previously. In addition, the transportation, accommodation and meal arrangements were excellent. The tour concentrated on two regions of the province that allowed participants the opportunity to gain a good
appreciation of the cultural and physical aspects of each area. It was organized in a manner that created an environment that permitted a most relaxed and enjoyable experience for all participants."	© Len Staples

"What a wonderful addition to our lifetime memories bank! It is hard to identify the highlights: there were so many as we traveled from San Jose as far north as the Arenal Volcano, and as far south as Carate in the Osa Peninsula - with all kinds of adventures everywhere. We came home with lots of interesting images and we learnt more about the art of photography. And we were lucky to meet a great group of people on the tour.

Frank's organizational skills distinguished the whole adventure from start to finish. His careful planning beforehand, his knowledge of the country and its culture, and his many contacts within the areas we visited, as well as his ability to identify and negotiate many wonderful photographic opportunities ensured that we thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the tour.

Frank, "our fearless leader", and indeed his personal warmth made everyone feel welcome to his adopted country of Costa Rica and eager to return again soon." Felicity and Alan Somerset Toronto, Ontario, Canada
