Go river tubing, ziplining and surfing in glorious Costa Rica.
On arrival at San Jose airport, you’ll be met and taken to your hotel, Studio Hotel in Santa Ana. The rest of the day is yours to shake off the flight and venture out to San Jose (or Chepe, as the locals call it) at your own pace. Accommodation: Studio Hotel or similar
You’ll travel 125 miles this morning, headed to the Celeste River in the Tenorio Volcano National Park. Its rainforest and the magnificently blue river are highlights of Costa Rica’s natural phenomena. Now the adventure begins. Brace yourself: you’ll be river tubing, hurtling downstream through Grade I and II rapids, flanked on each side by tropical rainforest. All to a soundtrack of monkey calls and birdsong. It’s exhilarating stuff and the perfect intro to this untamed wilderness. Tonight, you’ll stay at Rio Celeste Hideaway, a small eco-friendly resort on the slopes of Tenorio Volcano. Accommodation: Rio Celeste Hideaway or similar
After breakfast, you’ll venture further into the ecosystem on a four-hour hike in Tenorio Volcano National Park. You’ll spot exotic plants and wildlife before you reach the magnificent Rio Celeste waterfall and the place where the river acquires its vivid turquoise colour. Later, when the sun goes down, you’ll follow a forest trail by torchlight to witness some nocturnal species emerging. Accommodation: Rio Celeste Hideaway or similar
After breakfast, you’ll head to Rincon de la Vieja, home to two volcanoes and 32 rivers. Alive with geothermal energy, Rincon de la Vieja effervesces with fumaroles, warm springs and mud pots. You’ll check into Hacienda Guachipelin. Near to the hotel is a crystal clear river that feeds ten riverbank pools with thermal, mineral-rich water. Soak in the pools, then apply a volcanic mud masque and let it dry before leaping into the cool stream. And repeat. And repeat. And repeat… Accommodation: Hacienda Guachipelin or similar
Carb-load at breakfast. You’ll need the energy for a zip line tour, where you’ll fly through the trees on zip lines, rappelling, climbing and swinging. You’ll cross hanging bridges over a narrow river canyon. Proper exhilarating stuff. Feet back on solid ground, you’ll hike to the aptly named Cauldrons, where steam and sulphur belch from the fumaroles. Accommodation: Hacienda Guachipelin or similar
After breakfast, you’ll head south-west to the paradisiacal coast today. You’re bound for mailto:Anna%20Hann" datetime="2019-10-10T09:35">Tamarindo on the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica’s renowned surf spot.

Late afternoon, you’ll board a catamaran to explore some of the bays. With a suitably tropical drink in hand, scan the sea for dolphin pods and sea turtles. Perhaps even the odd whale if you’re particularly lucky. You’ll drop anchor for amailto:Anna%20Hann" datetime="2019-10-10T09:35"> snorkel or explore a deserted beach while the crew prepare a BBQ feast. Accommodation: Tamarindo Diria Hotel or similar

otherwise, the transfer will be to the Exodus Edits start (or pre-tour)
hotel, and will be on the date on which the tour starts; transfers to other

of the free airport transfer must provide full flight details for their

We know that the unexpected can happen. Your plane may get delayed, or things
just don’t go to plan. If you miss your tour departure, check with the
hotel to see if your tour leader has left you a message with details of how
to catch up with your group. If not, call our emergency number (you will find
it on the final joining instructions) and our team will help you. Don’t

US dollars are widely accepted as payment in Costa Rica, however change will
likely be given in local currency and the exchange rate will fluctuate. We
suggest taking some US dollars with you but then using ATM's to withdraw the
rest of your money in local currency whilst you're there.
You should allow extra to cover the cost of meals not included in the price

USD25-32 per meal (excluding drinks). Average costs for drinks are USD1-2
for mineral water or soft drinks, USD3-4 for a bottle of beer and USD4-5 for
a glass of wine.
Our local staff are paid well and fairly for their work with Exodus. However,
it is usual for groups to tip guides and drivers and it would be reasonable
for each group member to contribute approx. USD3-5 per day for each staff
member for this purpose, although you may wish to tip more if travelling in a
small group. Porters at the airport and hotels are normally tipped about
USD1 per piece. Occasionally the tour leader will organise a tipping kitty
to facilitate these and other tips (such as waiting staff in restaurants)
which will be collected in advance at the start of the trip.
