VOLCANOES & PACIFIC COAST: An Unforgettable Adventure Through Costa Rica

Your adventure begins in San José, the Costa Rican capital, where you’ll spend the first two nights acclimating to the “Pura Vida” lifestyle that characterizes this beautiful Central American country. From here, you’ll start your journey toward some of Costa Rica’s most spectacular landscapes.

The journey continues to Arenal, one of Costa Rica’s most visited and photographed regions. During your two-night stay, you’ll experience:

Arenal Volcano National Park: You’ll walk through trails surrounded by lush tropical vegetation while observing the majestic Arenal Volcano, one of the country’s most active until recently. The trails will take you through petrified lava fields, testimony to past eruptions, and offer you incomparable panoramic views of the volcano and Lake Arenal.

La Fortuna Waterfall: Prepare to descend approximately 500 steps toward one of Costa Rica’s most impressive waterfalls. With its 70-meter free fall, this waterfall will leave you breathless. The effort is totally worth it when you find yourself facing this natural wonder, where you can even cool off in its crystal-clear waters.

Hot Springs: After a day of adventures, nothing beats relaxing in natural hot springs heated by the volcano. These thermal pools offer different temperatures and are surrounded by tropical gardens, creating a perfect atmosphere for total relaxation.

Poás Volcano National Park: You’ll visit one of the world’s most spectacular volcanic craters. Poás Volcano has one of the largest active craters on the planet, with a turquoise-colored acid lagoon that constantly changes. On clear days, you’ll be able to observe the steaming crater and enjoy views of the Central Valley.

From Arenal, you’ll transfer to the heights of Monteverde, famous for its magical cloud forest and unique biodiversity. Here you’ll spend two nights immersed in nature:

Selvatura Park: This park offers you a complete experience with two unmissable activities:

• Hanging Bridges: You’ll walk across eight suspended bridges that elevate you above the forest canopy, allowing you to observe flora and fauna from a completely different perspective. The experience of walking among the treetops, enveloped in the characteristic mist of the cloud forest, is simply magical.
• Canopy Tour: Experience pure adrenaline as you glide through steel cables across the cloud forest. This zipline system will allow you to fly between trees, observing the forest from the heights while feeling the thrill of adventure.

The tour culminates with three nights of relaxation in Samara, one of the most beautiful and tranquil beaches on Costa Rica’s Pacific coast:

Dolphin Watching and Snorkeling: Embark on a marine excursion where you’ll have the opportunity to observe dolphins in their natural habitat. These intelligent and playful creatures frequent the warm waters of the Costa Rican Pacific. Additionally, you’ll explore the underwater world through snorkeling, where you’ll discover rich marine life, coral reefs, and vibrantly colored tropical fish.
