Overview & Highlights

A variety-packed holiday including the vibrant Pacific-side Osa Peninsula. More wildlife in the mangroves on the Caribbean coast and interior cloudforested mountains while the volcanic landscapes are captivating.  

Tiny Costa Rica is bursting with an extraordinary diversity of flora and fauna, and this trip provides an in-depth exploration of its natural highlights as your journey from one coast to another.

Beginning on the Caribbean Coast, explore the jungle waterways and mangrove forests of the wildlife-rich Tortuguero National Park. Continue to Arenal and bathe in naturally heated thermal springs in the shadow of the picture-perfect volcano, before heading to Monteverde and its trio of cloud forest reserves, and ending with a few days’ relaxation on a beach on the Nicoya Peninsula.

Costa Rica is one of the most peaceful and stable countries in the world and its people are among the friendliest in Latin America. The comprehensive network of national parks with their extensive trails is always very accessible. In line with its respect for the great outdoors, Costa Rica has been at the vanguard of adventure tourism, with activities on offer from zip-lining to white-water rafting.
