“ As a veteran of the two most recent ‘intheleather’ golf and fishing trips to Costa Rica , I have found the perfect combination of recrea-tional and bonding activities.  We have golfed at three of the best courses in Central America and the sports fishing has been as adver-tised – outstanding!  The organizational skills of our host, Michael Maher , and his Costa Rican contacts have made the trip hassle free for the guests.  We have stayed at wonderful hotels, dined in ex-ceptional restaurants, and found time to enjoy the many cultural sites capitalizing on the guidance of our host and his many contacts around the countryside.  The camaraderie I’ve developed with my fellow travelers made it hard to say goodbye, and I can’t wait to return in February.  Michael, sign me up again.”

“I have enjoyed several trips to Costa Rica hosted by intheleather. com. The golf courses, especially the Cariari and Los Suenos are incredible.  The fishing is some of the best in the world.  Many other excursions are avail- able but it is not possible to see all the beautiful sites in one trip.  The hotel accommodations have always been first class and very Americano friendly.  English is spoken al-most everywhere for your basic needs and the U.S. dollar is univer-sally accepted.  Knowing only a very little Spanish and understanding the rate of exchange for the colones is a definite plus. The camara-derie that is formed during the trip is a hidden plus and many new friends and business relationships have been established. And don't worry about the food and the water, very rarely have I been disap-pointed. So go for it, come join us, you won't regret it.  Pura Vida Amigo!”

“I've been on three “intheleather” trips to Costa Rica . Each trip has been better than the one before. On my next trip I'm definitely going to go fishing. The Captain cooks the catch at his restaurant that night for you.”

“I’ve been on a lot of golf trips and they don’t get any better than this.  If you like to have fun, laugh until your sides hurt, experience other cultures, and enjoy one of the most beautiful countries on the planet, this is the perfect trip for you.  It would be hard to find a more congenial group of guys than those who participate in this ev-ent.  I hope to see you in February.
