Your Ultimate Guide to Costa Rica

|

Boundless natural beauty populated by a huge diversity of species sums up Costa Rica. This little country really does have an embarrassment of riches when it comes to wildlife, and the authorities have worked hard to preserve as many pristine habitats as possible. As an ecotourism destination, Costa Rica is world class, and has an exemplary record of blazing a sustainable trail by protecting a full quarter of its territory. And what a territory! Volcanic peaks cloaked in cloud forest; tropical rainforest alive with chirruping, slithering, fluttering and croaking; a string of beaches on both coasts and a fine array of adventure sports to get the pulse racing.

Costa Rica

There are many different ways to approach a Costa Rican adventure. Make the most of the opportunities for getting out into all that life-affirming nature by planning some incredible hikes or canopy tours in the various national parks. Alternatively, hang your trip around the incredible wildlife watching possibilities, such as spotting whales and dolphins off the Pacific coast, or observing turtle nesting and hatching on the beaches of Tortuguero. Build plenty of relaxation time into your trip for a calmer experience, with some days beachside or maybe at the hot springs of Arenal. Whatever you you would like to prioritise on your holiday, our local experts can put together just the right itinerary for you.
