Get the classic guidebook experience of Costa Rica by visiting all the best-loved hot spots, but make it special through local encounters and small-town visits. Rather than just hitting the highlights of Tortuguero Canals National Park, Arenal Volcano, Monteverde Cloud Forest, and Guanacaste beaches, you can reach deeper into the local life in each one. Woven in between the highlights are hidden adventures like a plantation tour by ox cart and village visits.
- Taste small-town life and visit a brilliant butterfly farm in Braulio Carrillo National Park
- Voyage by boat into the wild rainforest of Tortuguero Canals National Park
- Soak in hot springs, leap into La Fortuna Waterfall, and hike the Arenal Volcano
- Visit traditional coffee and sugar plantations -- by ox cart!
- Marvel at a panoramic view of Monteverde Cloud Forest by canopy tour
- Take in the sunshine and hot nightlife of the stunning Guanacaste beaches.
Maximize ten days in Costa Rica with an itinerary that combines the "must-see" hot spots with spontaneous encounters with local people and village life. Depending on the package, you'll enjoy hassle-free shuttle or private transportation and hotel stays, plus rugged off-road adventures like a canopy tour, jeep boat transfer, and even an ox cart ride!
The action-packed tour is framed around four of Costa Rica's most sought after travel destinations and activities -- wandering the rainforests of Tortuguero Canals National park, hiking the perfect cone of Arenal Volcano, a mesmerizing canopy tour through Monteverde Cloud Forest, and lazing on the brilliant beaches of Guanacaste.
Far more than hot-spot hopping, this ten-day adventure allows for a deeper and more local experience of each one, whether it's dining with the locals in nearby villages or seeking out tradiitional plantation tours for a glimpse of Costa Rican farm life. Experience the vibrant culture and traditions of Costa Rica through local guides and hosts who are thrilled to share both the best-known and lesser-known wonders of their wild green home.
