Costa Rica: 8 Days/ 7 Nights
March 5-12, 2022
Join us for 8 days filled with adventure, fun and discovery – in Costa Rica! We’ve carefully created this entire adventure with one goal in mind - to give you a unique, authentic and intimate taste of the “Tico” culture, celebrated and enjoyed by the locals and shared with pride as we explore and dine alongside them.
With our experienced Costa Rican local guides (our friends) at our side, together we’ll transition through three very distinct climates while exploring the rainforest and spending time along their beautiful beaches, surrounded by the diverse and abundant wildlife of this magical country.
As a small group of up to 10 people, you won’t find yourself on motorcoaches “looking” Travelling as our own “bubble” we’ll be totally immersed in the experience of a lifetime. First hand and up close, you’ll feel, smell, and hear the power and natural wonder while kayaking, surfing, hiking in the jungle, a canopy tour, and buckle up for our thrilling white-water rafting adventure.
Travelling as guests and now tour hosts, we fell in love with Costa Rica, making many friends here who can’t wait to show you their home country. We will travel to various parts of the country, staying in small Inns and private vacation homes, giving you an intimate opportunity to sample, learn about and better appreciate the Costa Rican rich and diverse culture, cuisine, climate, geology and recreational opportunities.
We’ll look after everything, just meet us in Liberia and enjoy!

Tour Highlights & Overview
Day 1 - 4, La Fortuna/Nuevo Arenal
Leaving Liberia we’ll transfer to Nuevo Arenal tucked along the Northern Highlands of Costa Rica to our home base for the next four nights. Nestled high within the Guanacaste hills boasting the most fantastic views of the Arenal Volcano from here we’ll continue our natural adventures and Lake Arenal, the country’s largest lake and a haven for water sports and activities.
We can’t wait to introduce you to Patrick, our property host. We have been staying at and enjoying this amazing property for our tours for the past 5 years, it is an absolute gem! Patrick is an amazing host and chef - his breakfasts are famous, and his dinners are spectacular. (Don’t plan on losing weight here!).
From our base in the Guanacaste hills, we’ll spend our days hiking to the enchanting Rio Celeste Waterfall and kayaking on Lake Arenal. We’ll discover the jungle wildlife of the region by way of hanging bridges canopy tour and soaring above the jungle on a Zipline, taking in a sloth tour, and experiencing a jungle hike (possibly a night jungle hike!).
You can expect to hear Howler monkey calls, and bird songs will be our morning music. Evenings can be spent in the private indoor pool or on the terrace overlooking majestic Lake Arenal.
Day 5-8 : Playa Grande
Now, it’s time to hit the beach! On day 5 we will move to our fabulous private beachfront home exquisitely situated on a pristine sandy beach on the Pacific Coast, within a National Park! Our Costa Rican beach property emphasizes open spaces, private pool, amazing sunsets, and best of all an amazing uncrowded beach as your front yard!
From our beach paradise, we enjoy surfing or body boarding, explore several other beaches in the area, kayak in the Pacific, and go on an estuary tour where we’ll hope to see abundant wildlife including Howler Monkeys (and maybe a crocodile)!
We’ll keep you well fed too. We will be dining at our favourite beach front restaurant and at our property - and you’ll even help prepare a meal while participating in a Costa Rican cooking lesson.
Our 8 Day Tour Package includes:
$2799 CAD per person (based on double occupancy), taxes included.
$1299 CAD Single Supplement for solo travellers, taxes included.
