Correct! I was up between Costa Rica & Colombia.
I'm an adventure travel enthusiast, so both are very appealing as both have 4+ rivers you can commercially whitewater raft. We ended up picking Colombia as it's cheaper to do the adventure activities, the hostel is cheaper, and I've only been to Colombia on work. It's time to play! and on these prices, you can't beat it:
$8/night - private room in a hostel in the mountain town where all adventures are based out of!
$25 - Canyoning (would be $80+ in Costa Rica!)
$17 - caving w/200 foot rappel (UNBELIEVABLE!)
$25 - rafting on a body board
$40-$100 - the cost to raft 4 top notch rivers (each)
With prices like that, Colombia was a no brainer. Head to San Gil in the mountains (bus from Bogota), and get wild people! I got the prices from
www.colombiarafting.com if any of you mile hoarders want to head down there sometime. I'm stoked
