Highlights

To judge Costa Rica purely on its natural bounty would be a mistake. Costa Ricans, known as Ticos, are warm, friendly people whose kindness is as integral to their country as the rainforest.

General information:

This is a 2 boot guided walking holiday.

You have the chance to visit dramatic volcanoes, emerald lagoons and the world famous Monteverde rainforest. This holiday is a good choice for flora and fauna lovers with the possibility of seeing over 850 species of different birds, masses of rare flora, and unusual wildlife.

Walking details:

This varied walking holiday is mainly on jungle trails and country tracks. Rain forest trails can be slippery and steep in sections, so walking boots are essential.

Location:

This varied walking holiday is mainly on jungle trails and country tracks, we think we have found the perfect balance between spotting wildlife in the forest, and enjoying some awe-inspiring panoramas from the heights. Watching monkeys swing through the trees at Rincon de la Vieja, contrasts perfectly with contemplating sweeping views over Lake Arenal.

Who would this holiday appeal to?

Excellent for nature and adventure lovers the tour will take you off the beaten track where you will see lots of wildlife including tree frogs, iguanas, quetzals and spider monkeys.

Similar to which other holidays?

We think this holiday is similar to our Secrets of St Lucia and Cuba Uncovered holidays.

Possibility of non-standard departures?

It is not possible to start this holiday on a non-standard date as this is a guided holiday. However, it is possible to extend the holiday at the start in Alajuela or at the end at Ocotal.
