Costa Rica's Pura Vida Escape with Guanacaste 2025

9 Day Tour from San José to Guanacaste



Tour Description:

Escape into the wilds of Costa Rica where keeping your head in the clouds is not only permitted but required! From the fascinating sights of San Jose to the artisans of Sarchí to Arenal Volcano National Park to the exquisite natural paradise of the Monteverde Cloud Forest, you’ll find that where it rains it teems with spectacular species in a kaleidoscope of flora and fauna in one of the world’s most bio-diverse natural habitats. From wildcats to bats; butterflies to boisterous birds; and sleepy sloths who call the Tilaran mountains home, explore each day’s adventure before returning to the creature comforts of a comfortable sanctuary of your own.

Downshift your adventure to a slower speed to chill out on Costa Rica’s warm and lush northwestern shore on the golden sands of Tamarindo Beach. Add the seaside resort of Guanacaste to your tour of Costa Rica to catch marlin, mahi, or just some mellow rays on the beach. Maybe those laid-back sloths are on to something!

ITINERARY

Day 1
WILD & WONDERFUL Explore Monteverde Cloud Forest, home to over 3,000 species of plants, 400 species of birds, 60 species of bats, 1,200 species of amphibians, and 700 species of butterflies in one of the last remaining natural habitats of all six Costa Rica wildcat species—ocelots, jaguars, jaguarundi, pumas, oncillas, and margays. Perhaps you’ll catch a glimpse of one of Costa Rica’s most beautiful birds, the resplendent quetzal

Day 2
PARADISE FOUND The unique, high-elevation ecosystem of Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Reserve is constantly enveloped in moisture-rich clouds formed by the warm winds from the Atlantic Ocean as they sweep over the Continental Divide. Here, in one of the most bio-diverse and rich ecosystems in the world, a wealth of animal and plant species make this a nature lover’s paradise as well

Day 3
WONDERS OF NATURE For 42 years, Arenal Volcano was Costa Rica’s most active volcano until 2010 when it entered a passive phase. This area is one of the most bio-diverse areas in the world and is home to more than 850 species of birds and other wildlife. Time here can be spent hiking the trails around the volcano or relaxing in the many thermal hot springs.
