Day 1: San Jose
Hola! Welcome to Costa Rica! Your adventure starts in San Jose with a welcome meeting at 3 pm this afternoon. After, jump on a bus and head towards La Fortuna – a small town in Costa Rica nestled at the base of the Arenal Volcano, known for active volcanoes and natural hot springs. When you arrive, maybe walk through the La Fortuna Town Centre, soak in the Ecotermales Hot Springs or join a chocolate and coffee tour. Later, join a tortilla-making class at El Fogon de Chela and sit down to indulge in your home-made dinner.
Day 2: La Fortuna
You'll start the day early to go sloth-spotting - these animals are Costa Rica's national symbol as they're quite common in the forest and jungles. Set off through the tropical rainforest and look for local wildlife like dart frogs, toucans, and of course sloths! After, head to lunch and taste some traditional dishes like empanadas, prensadas (tortilla with cheese) and ripe plantain with cheese. The rest of the day is free for you to explore at your own pace. Maybe unwind in the local hot springs, visit the La Fortuna Waterfall or take on a canopy adventure. Tonight, rejoin your group for a guided jungle walk, where you’ll see the tropical rainforest in the dark and learn about the region’s nocturnal wildlife.
Day 3: La Fortuna
After breakfast, journey through the canopies of Mistico Arenal Hanging Bridges Park. As you walk, spot colorful birds and learn about the forest’s diverse ecosystem. Travel across six hanging bridges and take in the panoramic views of the region from the treetops. Tonight, visit the EcoTermales Fortuna – a family-owned and operated natural hot springs in La Fortuna. Relax in the various volcanic hot springs with varying temperatures then indulge in a traditional Costa Rican dinner – a great way to celebrate your final night.
Day 4: La Fortuna
This morning, on your way back to San Jose, stop for a private coffee tour at the world-famous Doka Estate. Here you'll taste Costa Rica’s rich coffee heritage from bean to cup, in their award-winning brews. Afterwards travel to San Jose. When you arrive, your trip comes to an end. If you’d like to stay longer, just speak to your booking agent ahead of time.
