Additional Information
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. Day 2: San José – Monteverde Check off San José’s iconic sights with a quick sightseeing tour before
traveling 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-colored
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. Day 3: Monteverde sightseeing and free time Step
into another world on your Costa Rica value tour in the Monteverde
Cloud Forest Biological Reserve. Learn about the thousands of plant and
animal species that thrive in this area, many of which only exist right
here, from your Travel Director. Keep your ears open for the sounds of
hummingbirds, howler monkeys, sloths, toucans, and if you’re really
lucky, the Quetzal bird. Leaving the forest on a real nature high, why
not end the day with a tasty ‘El Trapiche’ Choice Experience tour
visiting sugarcane, banana, orange and coffee plantations? Day 4: Monteverde – Arenal Bubbling
hot springs and geothermal activity, wildlife and of course the
sleeping giant, Arenal Volcano. Arenal Volcano National Park is one of
the jewels in Costa Rica’s crown. Boasting outdoor pools, a butterfly
garden, botanical gardens and tame iguanas roaming the grounds, your
secluded resort on the banks of the San Carlos River will make you feel
like you’ve entered a little corner of heaven. Day 5: Arenal full-day sightseeing The best
way to explore Arenal’s private reserve is on a guided hike, of course!
Be astounded by leftover lava rocks and boulders and plunge through the
forest for views of the volcano and Arenal Lake. Next up: Reach new
heights at Arenal Hanging Bridges Park. Join a Local Specialist for a
MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experience on a ‘sky walk’ through the jungle
canopy. Keep your eyes peeled on the suspension bridges while spotting
birdlife. To round off the day of your Costa Rica value tour, let your
worries drift away over a dip at local hot springs before heading back
to your resort. Day 6: Arenal sightseeing and free time 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 with a Local Specialist, 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.
Free afternoon? Your options are endless. Take a dip in the pool,
shop or choose a horseback riding Choice Experience through the
rainforest. Day 7: Arenal – San José Your Costa Rica value tour comes to an end this morning with a transfer back to San José International Airport
