Tailor-made journey · Costa Rica
Tailor-made, always
Every itinerary shaped around your dates, pace and preferences.
One dedicated expert
The same person from the first conversation until you return.
Decades of experience
Over 35 years shaping bespoke journeys for discerning travelers.
Costa Rica is a place of striking contrasts – dense jungle, volcanic peaks, and quiet stretches of coast where life slows to a gentler rhythm. This journey is designed for travelers who want to experience the country’s classic destinations such as Arenal and San José without giving up comfort or ease.
You’ll journey through landscapes shaped by fire and water, explore cloudforests alive with birdsong, and unwind beside the Pacific Ocean as the sun sets over the waves.
Along the way, luxury lodges, expert guides, and thoughtful touches ensure every experience feels personal and effortless.
Day 1
Arrive in San José and meet your private driver for a seamless transfer to your hotel. Settle into your boutique accommodation and unwind in its tranquil courtyards or enjoy a meal in one of the city’s acclaimed restaurants. The evening is yours to relax before the adventure begins.
Days 2–3
Travel early toward the Caribbean coast, where a scenic journey leads to Tortuguero National Park – a labyrinth of rivers, lagoons, and rainforest alive with wildlife. Glide through jungle canals by boat, spotting monkeys, toucans, and caimans with the help of your naturalist guide. Visit the small village of Tortuguero to learn about local life and conservation efforts, or take an evening walk in search of nesting turtles (seasonal). Spend your evenings surrounded by the sounds of the forest at your eco-lodge.
Days 4–6
Continue inland toward the Arenal Volcano region, where rainforest trails, hanging bridges, and steaming hot springs define the landscape. Explore Arenal Volcano National Park on a guided hike, crossing ancient lava fields and lush forest alive with birdlife. Spend an afternoon at leisure – perhaps zip-lining through the canopy, kayaking on Arenal Lake, or visiting the turquoise pools of Rio Celeste. Evenings are for soaking in thermal springs and dining beneath views of the volcano.
Days 7–8
A scenic drive takes you into the cool, misty highlands of Monteverde, one of the world’s most important cloudforest reserves. Join your private guide for a morning walk through the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, home to exotic orchids, tree frogs, and the iconic quetzal. In the afternoon, venture along hanging bridges for panoramic forest views or visit a local coffee farm to learn about Costa Rica’s proud agricultural traditions. Evenings here are peaceful, with mountain breezes and star-filled skies.
Days 9–11
Descend from the highlands to the Nicoya Peninsula, where golden sands and surf breaks await in Santa Teresa. Check into your oceanfront resort and settle into the slower rhythm of coastal life. Days here are yours to design – join a surf lesson, take a yoga class by the sea, or unwind with a spa treatment as the tide rolls in. Sunset dinners on the beach, horseback rides along the shore, and lazy mornings with tropical fruit breakfasts complete your time in paradise.
Days 12–13
Spend your final morning soaking in the Pacific sun before your private transfer to the airport. As you journey home, reflect on a trip that has allowed you to experience the very best that Costa Rica has to offer.
