Day2 and 3- Overnight Rafting Trip on the Pacuare River (Spend one night at camp)

The Pacuare River, known as the Rio Pacuare, is one of the jewels of Costa Rica, and according to National Geographic, which has ranked the river as one of the top ten rivers in the world. The heart pounding whitewater along with its remote jungle location and its warm water (71 degrees Fahrenheit) make this a popular destination for adventurous travelers seeking a whitewater induced adrenaline rush. This river is great for beginners and still thrills experienced rafters.

Our overnight camp is situated in the rugged beauty of Huacas Canyon. Your guides will prepare delicious meals and appetizers for happy hour. You will be serenaded by the sounds of the jungle at night and the murmur of the river below. Magic! The second day features a hike to a Cabécar indigenous village.

When you reach the village, you can talk to the Indians; share some activities; take pictures and more. A unique cross-cultural experience that gives you a glimpse of how these people have lived for millennia in harmony with nature.

Day 3 - We drive to Arenal Volcano in the afternoon / hot springs

(spend the night in La Fortuna at Los Lagos Resort)

Arenal Volcano is by far the most active volcano in Costa Rica and one of the most active in the world with daily small eruptions. Hot springs and tours to see the volcano are on tap everyday

Day 4- Ecoglide Canopy tour in the morning and after lunch, a floating wildlife safari on the Río Peñas Blancas (spend the night in La Fortuna at Los Lagos Resort)

Experience the peacefulness of the forest while traveling on Peñas Blancas River, and getting the chance to observe different animals such as monkeys, sloth, iguanas, tortoises, crocodiles, and dozens of species of aquatic and forest birds.

The Canopy Tour offers everyone an exhilarating opportunity to soar through the rain forest high above the forest floor. We do ours with Ecoglide which is recognized as the very best in the La Fortuna area. Under the auspices of professional guides, you will reach speeds of over 40 miles per hour on the zip lines sometimes hundreds of feet above the forest floor.

Day 5- Monteverde / Selva Tour / Canopy or Hanging Bridges (Spend the night in Monteverde at the Fonda Vela)

We will take you to Selvatura Park where you can choose between a 2 hour zip line tour through the treetops or a hike over the dozen hanging bridges. Both give a unique perspective to this unique ecosystem of cloud forest.

Day 6- Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve (spend the night in Manuel Antonio at the SiComoNo)

MONTEVERDE CLOUD FOREST RESERVE

Straddling the Continental Divide at 1440 meters (4662 ft), the Santa Elena and Monteverde Cloud Forest area offers one of the most interesting places to visit in Costa Rica.

In the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve are found more than 100 species of mammals including 5 species of cats, over 400 species of birds including 30 kinds of hummingbirds, tens of thousands of insect species (over 5000 species of moths and butterflies) and 2,500 species of plants (420 kinds of orchids). The area is acclaimed as one of the most outstanding wildlife refuges in the western hemisphere. We make an early morning trip into the reserve with a professional naturalist guide who will help unlock the secrets of the cloud forest ecosystems for you. With luck we will catch a glimpse of the elusive Resplendent Quetzal! We will stop off at the Hummingbird Porch for great up close photos of multiple species of these fascinating birds.

Day 7- Beach, Manuel Antonio National Park and Sunset

San José. Perhaps it is so popular because of its intimate white sand beaches backed soaring rocky cliffs and rainforest that grows right up to the high tide line. The wildlife here is abundant, and up close. You will have the opportunity to get pictures of sloths, monkeys, iguanas, coatimundis, and more. There is quite a varied fauna with 109 species of mammals and 184 of birds.
