Make sure to let us know your must sees!
Think about how you want to feel when you get back home. We can plan your adventures to be serene, dynamic, or a mixture.
You may choose a broader itinerary where your Local Guides or your Costa Rica Expeditions Naturalist Guides will point out places, people, plants or animals and explain their significance and answer questions.
TIP: Is the beach a significant component for this vacation? If not, you may prefer to focus your time and money towards experiencing the highlights of Costa Rica such as rainforest, cloud forest, animal viewing, biodiversity, adventures in the forest, etc...

Often people want to visit too many places in too little time. Our customized designed itineraries are flexible, if you have high energy or are very athletic, we can include lots of adventures, just be sure to have us plan for some vacation rest too! Our Costa Rican vacations may include plenty of time for a hot tub under the stars, a spa, laughing by the pool, or meandering gently down a river.
TIP: When you plan to visit the country for less than 7 days, it is possible to experience a little bit of Costa Rica, but it is important to keep in mind that the driving times are longer than most travelers think, and it make take up to 4 hours to get from the central regions of the country to one of the coast areas to experience the beaches for example. If you plan to visit for less than 7 days, you need to ask yourself if you would be willing to move around during those 5 days considering the driving times.
If you have heard of a place, if you have read about a specific region or hotel that caught your attention, let us know and our Local Experts will let you know why you should or should not include it on your plan.

Although wildlife spotting is never guaranteed, it is common to get to see toucans, macaws, monkeys, sloths, crocodiles, frogs and butterflies during a vacation in Costa Rica. Moreover, your Guides will know where to find dozens of species.
Your Guides are what make our wildlife observations extraordinary. Our guides know where there have recently been sightings of rare or endangered species. See the most important nesting place for Atlantic Green Turtles in the Western Hemisphere. It's all done from a safe distance, so as to not disturb the nature we're privileged to see
