Highlights

Day 1 Arrive San José

Arrive in San José at any time.

Day 2-3 La Fortuna

La Fortuna sits at the foot of still-active Arenal Volcano. Take an optional night hike around its base and listen to the sounds of the monkeys and the distant rumbling of the Volcano. Other activities include white water rafting, horseback riding, waterfall rappelling/abseiling, a tour of the Caño Negro Wildlife Refuge, or relaxing in magma-heated hot springs.

Day 4-6 Montezuma

Travel to the Nicoya Peninsula, with plenty of time for rest and relaxation in the laid back ex-hippie hangout of Montezuma. Check out Cabo Blanco National Park to spot some wildlife, hike to the nearby waterfall for a dip in the local swimming hole or simply lounge on the beach. Adrenaline junkies can take their pick of activities as well - surfing, ziplining, or scuba diving are all options. On the other hand, if relaxation is what you seek, opt for a yoga class or take a leisurely hike to search for orchids.

Day 7 San José

Return to San José for a final night on the town.

Day 8 Depart San José
