Tours to Costa Rica

Costa Rica

If you need an excuse to escape the cold, exist amongst exotic animals and leave the grind behind, then our Costa Rica tour packages might be just what you’re after. Not only does this biodiverse eco-paradise boast natural beauty out the wazoo, but it has some of the best fruit you will ever taste. No, seriously, it will blow your mind.  

 

Fruit musings aside, we recommend starting your trip in the vibrant capital with San Jose city tours. Here you can visit historic landmarks, explore bustling markets and learn more about Costa Rica’s heritage and modern life.  

 

With the city sorted, you’re all set to become one with nature. Those keen to get their steps up can conquer trails and soak in natural hot springs with Arenal Volcano hikes, or experience the untamed wilderness and abundant wildlife of Corcovado National Park. 

Peer into the bubbling Poas Volcano crater, or walk across hanging bridges and zip line through tree canopies of the Monteverde Cloud Forest.  Don’t forget to include an Osa Peninsula’s wildlife encounter in your itinerary, offering the chance to spot rare species as you kayak through mangrove swamps. 

Finally, if the tropical climate has you craving the water, head coastal to Manuel Antonio beach or catch some waves with Tamarindo surfing trips. You can witness the wonder of Tortuguero turtle watching and learn about local conservation efforts, or simply unwind at any of the luxurious Guanacaste Beach resorts where each day is filled with water sports and pampering spa treatments. Talk about bliss, right?
