DavidTravel Itinerary Highlights include:
Immerse yourself in this peaceful
and protected land of natural wonders – a vibrant, living Eden
on the Central American isthmus. You will see Costa Rica from
sea-to-sea, Atlantic to Pacific, and try to spot all the
wondrous wildlife who reside here. Explore remote Tortuguero
National Park, home to manatees, river otters, monkeys, cougars
and the remarkable giant leatherback and sea turtles. This area
is a true natural jewel, and accessible only by boat or small
aircraft. Behold the spectacle of Arenal Volcano – see it by
day, and watch its fireworks in the evening as you relax in a
natural hot spring pool. Explore the plush rainforest by hiking
along the famed Hanging Bridges, and while gliding above the
canopy on the Sky Tram and on exhilarating zip-lines hung
between the towering trees. Visit plantations growing
pineapples, bananas, and coffee, then end your active journey by
relaxing on the white sandy beaches of Guanacaste.
• White water rafting on the scenic
Rio Pacuare in the Turrialba
Valley

Overview:
Emerald rainforest, pastel-colored
hummingbirds, smoldering volcanic peaks, tumbling rivers, and
freshly picked oranges still warm from the glowing Central
American sun: if Mother Nature can ever be accused of showing
off, it is in Costa Rica.
Sat just north of the Equator, this verdant chunk is one of the
most bio-diverse spots on the planet. Costa Rica has a simply
stunning variety of landscapes, microclimates, and flora and
fauna. Showcasing the country's breathtaking plant life, Costa
Rica's national parks are its greatest glory, with one-third of
the country set aside as protected natural areas. As well as
being a world leader in eco-tourism, Costa Rica superbly caters
for visitors looking for an adrenalin kick, with options
including whitewater rafting, zip line tours through the
rainforest canopy, surfing and quad biking.
