Travel story
The moment you step onto Costa Rican soil, you are greeted by birdsong and the rustle of leaves mingled with the humid air. Starting from San José, in the Sarapiquí forest you search for the breath of sloths, the colors of toucans, and the secretive presence of the pure white bat. Roasting cacao and tasting handmade chocolate blends with the scent of the forest. A boat gliding along the Río Cañón Negro reflects caimans, basilisk lizards, and countless waterbirds, while in Arenal the volcano stands quietly at dawn. Crossing lakes and entering the misty Monteverde, your heart trembles at the phantom of the quetzal as hummingbirds cut through the light. At the end of the journey, sipping wine made from rare fruits in the highlands of Los Santos lets the story of this country—where nature and people breathe together—soak into your soul.
Signature points
Enjoy encounters with a variety of animals
Through a boat ride on the Río Cañón Negro and walks in the Sarapiquí and Monteverde nature reserves, you will witness Costa Rica's diverse wildlife. You may encounter animals such as the rare pure white bat, the elusive quetzal, and adorable sloths.
Take on Arenal Volcano trekking
Enjoy trekking in Arenal Volcano National Park. If the weather is good, you can take in the volcano's magnificent scenery.
An adult pleasure: winery visits
Toward the end of the trip, enjoy a visit and tasting at a rare winery in the Los Santos region that makes wine from unusual fruits like physalis. You may discover a wonderful wine that soothes the fatigue of travel.
