Explore Costa Rica: Coffee, Volcano & Wildlife

Welcome to Costa Rica! Upon your arrival in San Jose, our representative will greet you with "Pura Vida!" and then escort you to the Naranjo area. About an hour later, you will reach your hotel. Check-in and then enjoy the rest of the afternoon at leisure.

As Naranjo is famous for its extensive coffee plantations, it would be a great place to go deep into the history and culture of coffee. Join in a half-day coffee tour to see coffee trees and learn the traditional methods of processing coffee beans. Moreover, you could take an ecological walk along the paths of the hotel after the tour to appreciate the flora and fauna of this region.

Head toward the Arenal Volcano area via a private vehicle after breakfast. During the drive, you will pass through several towns with fields that plant crops of pineapple, banana, and sugar cane according to the season. After 2 hours, you will arrive in La Fortuna, a town near Arenal Volcano, check into your hotel, and take a short break.

This evening, you can enjoy the hotel's hot springs at your leisure. Lounging in the hot springs surrounded by tropical gardens is a unique experience.

Wake up this morning to the harmonious sounds created by nature and enjoy a delicious Costa Rican breakfast. Then set off to an organic farm to experience authentic countryside. You can try sugar cane milling, harvest fresh seasonal fruits from the farm, and learn the traditional art of making handmade tortillas.

After a traditional lunch and Costa Rican coffee, enjoy the extraordinary view of the Arenal Volcano on a hike along the lava flows left by the 1968 eruption. The trail is around 1.9 miles long and takes about 2.5 hours to complete. You can also choose a longer hiking trail if you prefer a more challenging hike.

Take private transportation departing for Manuel Antonio located on Central Pacific Coast. Settle in after arriving at your hotel and enjoy the rest of the day at leisure.

A wide variety of wildlife and excellent beaches makes this area one of the most popular destinations in Costa Rica. There are plenty of activities to keep your days busy and it is recommended to spend at least three nights.

Manuel Antonio National Park, with its magical combination of rainforest, beaches, and coral reefs, is what you can't miss in Costa Rica. Today is yours to spend at leisure.

Alternatively, you can choose to follow a natural guide, walk through the rainforest inhabited by a large variety of flora and fauna, stamp on the white sand beaches, and feel the soft waves rolling over your feet. Your guide will help you locate toucans, iguanas, and some other rare and adorable creatures.

Enjoying your hotel facilities or beach time would be also a good choice. For adventurers, continue your passion with a lot of fun things such as kayaking, snorkeling, and horseback riding.

Say goodbye to Costa Rica and take a private transfer back to San Jose airport for your departure flight. It is recommended that you choose a flight that departs no earlier than mid-day since the drive time between Manuel Antonio and the airport usually takes about 3 hours.
