Welcome to our tours page of Costa Rica. You are about to set foot in one of the world’s most beautiful ecological gems. The land which Christopher Columbus named the “rich coast” is now seen as one of the safest and most progressive countries in South America. The only thing to be found in Costa Rica is the Pura Vida (literally “pure life”), an optimistic zest for life in all circumstances… The Costa Ricans (or Ticos for insiders) are constantly cheerful and welcoming to visitors! Costa Rica was also the first nation in the world to dissolve its army, a testament to their commitment to peace and prosperity above all else. It is regularly classed as one of the top countries for standards of living, and has a remarkable development model that prioritizes education, health care and protection of the environment. If you are a nature lover, you will find yourself in heaven… Costa Rica is a pioneering country in the field of ecotourism, and has an extremely rich biodiversity. Several unique species can be found in some of the country’s 33 national parks and reserves: no less than 25% of the Costa Rican territory is protected! To visit Costa Rica is to discover a wild paradise in which people are truly happy – what more could you want?

Tortuguero National Park

Parc Braullio Carrillo

The volcano with five craters, an iconic Costa Rican landmark and a must see for all nature lovers.

Arenal Volcano National Park

Rio Tabacon

A small, quiet town in the north east of Costa Rica, close to Lak Arenal. The countryside around Tilaran is quite flat, which I don't find very attractive.

It's a good base camp for exploring the Tenorio Volcano National Park or Lake Arenal but the town itself isn't very interesting. The only building that was worth photographing at Tilaran was the church. The surrounding countryside is agricultural and pastoral, albeit that the Arenal and Tenorio National Parks quickly take you back into a more mountainous environment. In this area you can explore coffee, peanut and macadamia nut plantations, or horse and cattle ranches. 11 km down the road to Monteverde be sure to stop at the magnificent Viento Fresco waterfalls (or you can go there on horse back for an experience that is 100% Costa Rican). Thewindsurfersamong you will like Lake Arenal where there is wind from November to April. It's also a good place for birdwatching.
