From Volcano to Corcovado

Private transfer from SJO Airport to San Vicente Hideaway. Door-to-door service.

Free day to enjoy the tranquility of San Vicente. Walks along nature trails, birdwatching in a pristine setting, interaction with rural Costa Rican culture, and relaxation in a peaceful natural environment.

Private transfer from San Vicente Hideaway to Arenal / La Fortuna. Door-to-door service.

Two La Fortuna icons combined in a single day. In the morning, walk the El Silencio trail on the volcano's northwest flank, taking in ancient lava formations, tropical vegetation and Lake Arenal in the background. In the afternoon, descend to the base of La Fortuna Waterfall —a 70-meter drop surrounded by rock walls— to cool off in its natural pool in an almost cinematic setting. Suitable for people in average physical condition; the descent to the waterfall requires effort on the way back up.

Transfer via Car-Boat-Car system across Lake Arenal: overland journey to the dock, lake crossing while enjoying views of the volcano and mountains, and final route to Monteverde. At dusk, when diurnal animals seek shelter and nocturnal species begin to emerge, Monteverde's cloud forest transforms into a completely different landscape. Accompanied by a bilingual guide with a flashlight, discover sloths, coatis, porcupines, grey foxes, tarantulas, tropical frogs, and birds roosting in the branches. The mysterious sounds of the night and species impossible to see during the day make this walk an unforgettable experience. Ideal for naturalists, photographers, and curious adventurers.

The Gold Package at Selvatura Park: experience the cloud forest from above, first flying and then walking. The Canopy Tour features 13 cables and 15 platforms totaling 3.5 km of flight over the treetops, with one kilometer cable and the Tarzan Swing included; the Hanging Bridges offer 3 km of trails and eight bridges ranging from 55 to 157 meters to traverse the canopy at leisure while observing its flora and fauna. Adrenaline and contemplation in a single day, with shared transportation from Monteverde hotels.

Private transfer from Monteverde to Manuel Antonio. Approximate duration 4 hours.

A 2.5-hour guided walk through one of the most beautiful national parks on the planet, preserved as a natural treasure for more than three decades. Accompanied by a highly qualified bilingual naturalist guide, you will spot sloths, white-faced and squirrel monkeys in the treetops, anteaters, non-venomous snakes at rest and a variety of birds singing in the canopy. A break to enjoy fresh fruit and natural juices before ending the tour on the park's pristine beaches, perfect for a relaxing afternoon by the sea.

We depart early toward the country's southern tip via the Costanera Sur highway, which borders kilometers of Pacific beaches and palm plantations, reaching the picturesque riverside town of Sierpe. There we board a boat to venture into the magnificent mangroves of the Sierpe River—the most extensive mangrove system on Central America's Pacific coast—where crocodiles, herons, ibis, and howler monkeys peek through the roots. The journey culminates by crossing the river's mouth toward open sea, with the silhouette of the Osa Peninsula framed on the horizon, until we land in Bahía Drake: the gateway to one of the planet's last great reserves of pristine nature. Here lies Corcovado National Park, which National Geographic described as "the biologically most intense place on Earth"—in just 0.03% of the world's surface, it concentrates nearly 2.5% of its biodiversity. Rest of the day free to acclimate to the rhythm of the jungle and the sound of the sea. From the Sierpe dock we board a boat for the final leg of the journey: approximately one hour navigating the mangroves of the Sierpe River and its mouth to open sea, until landing in Bahía Drake, in the heart of the Osa Peninsula.

Full-day excursion to Corcovado National Park (San Pedrillo or Sirena station, depending on the lodge). Guided hike through primary rainforest trails in search of the country's four monkey species, tapirs, peccaries, coatis, and macaws, with the possibility of finding jaguar tracks. Includes boat transportation, naturalist guide, and lunch.

Navigation to Caño Island Biological Reserve, one of Costa Rica's best snorkeling destinations: crystal-clear waters, coral reefs, sea turtles, rays, and schools of tropical fish. Along the way it is common to spot dolphins and, in season, humpback whales. Includes transportation, snorkeling equipment, and lunch.

In the morning, after breakfast, departure by boat from Bahía Drake returning to Sierpe, navigating once again through the mangroves of the Sierpe River. Private transfer from Sierpe to San José, on the Ballena Coast of the South Pacific.

Private transfer from your hotel to Juan Santamaría International Airport at the scheduled time for your return flight. Approximate duration 30 minutes.
