Overview

Enjoy unrivalled wildlife viewing and coastal wonders in Costa Rica

Costa Rica has many secrets to explore: from the wildlife-rich waterways of Tortuguero to the dense jungle coastline of the Osa Peninsula, an area named “the most biologically intense place on Earth” by National Geographic. Scarlet macaws rule the roost adding brilliant flashes of red, blue and gold to the foliage; humpback whales breed in the waters off-shore, and sloths crawl along cecropia branches.

  • Travel by minibus and boat

  • Green turtle nesting season: July to October
Food
All breakfasts, eight lunches and seven dinners are included. Hotel breakfasts are normally buffets, and lunches and dinners at Tortuguero are also buffets. Vegetarians are well catered for but please inform us before departure of any special dietary requests. Costa Rican specialities include gallo pinto, a black bean and rice dish, which is a staple part of the local diet. Soups and stews are also common, and fresh fruit is abundant and will no doubt be one of the highlights of your time in the tropics.
Weather

Costa Rica is 10 degrees north of the equator and has a tropical climate. The average temperature range is 10C-13C (50F-55F) in the highlands and from 22C-26C (72F-79F) in the lowlands. There is a rainy season from May to November when there are daily downpours, though these are usually quite short and there is still plenty of sunshine. December to April is the driest time of the year but you should still expect some rain.

Is this trip for you?

This trip has been  Activity Level 2 (Leisurely/Moderate) with a safari rating of 4.

Driving: Driving distances are not very long and most of the roads we take are of good quality. However, the road leading to the river on the way to and from Tortuguero has a poor surface and this can result in slow driving times, particularly following heavy rain.

Drake Bay and Corcovado National Park on the Osa Peninsula are two of the most remote areas we visit on this itinerary – there is very limited road access or facilities in these areas and we will use boats as the main form of transportation.

Walks: There are several included and optional walks on the itinerary that occasionally involve walking on rough paths. These are suitable for most fitness levels and usually last from two to three hours. During times of heavy rain, trails can be muddy and slippery and extra care should be taken. Many of the areas visited on the trip are hot and humid and there is the chance of heavy rain year-round – this is why Costa Rica is so green.

Swimming: The sea waters in the Tortuguero and Cahuita regions have very strong rip currents and are not suitable for swimming from the beach.
