Day 1

Arrive San José

Ahh, Costa Rica. Let the Pura Vida way of life take over as you arrive in San Jose. Trendy Barrio Amon offers a glimpse into the history of the city with colonial mansions converted into art galleries, while Barrio Escalante is a foodie’s paradise and the best place to grab dinner to begin your Costa Rica value tour. 

  • Accommodation

    Hotel Palma Real


Tick off San José’s iconic sights with a quick sightseeing tour before travelling towards the creative little town of Sarchí. Seen as the cradle of Costa Rican artisanship, this is the place to buy intricate arts, crafts and souvenirs including the hand-painted and bright coloured oxcart, the national symbol of Costa Rica. The journey continues through the Tilaran Mountain range listening for the collective “oohs” and “aahs” as you enter the mysterious and misty Cloud Forest.

Leaving the forest on a nature high, you’ll have time to relax this afternoon, or choose from a selection of Choice Experiences, like the ‘El Trapiche’ tour, where you’ll get to visit sugarcane, banana, orange and coffee plantations.

Highlights

Arenal Hanging Bridges

Visit Arenal Hanging Bridges Park, a MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experience:
Costa Ricans know a thing or two about adventuring in beautiful places. And you’ll experience both trekking across some of the 15 hanging bridges at Arenal Hanging Bridges Park. Feel good knowing you’re doing good. Not only will your jungle ‘sky walk’ acquaint you with the region's beauty, but you’ll be supporting sustainability – a part of Costa Rica Sky Adventure’s identity. The experience directly supports United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities and Goal 15: Life on Land.

If a tranquil river float and wildlife search sounds like you, you won’t want to miss this morning’s safari float down the Peñas Blancas River. Paired up with a Local Guide, you’ll love spotting monkeys, sloths, iguanas, caimans and tropical birds. Visit a local family, and learn how connected the people of Costa Rica are to their natural environment.
