SAN JOSÉ
Hola San José! Kicking off our adventure in Costa Rica’s capital, you’ll feel the tropical air hit your face as soon as you step off the plane. We’ll pick you up at the airport and take you to our accommodation, where you have time to relax before meeting up with your new travel mates and getting excited about the adventures yet to come.
LA FORTUNA
Today we begin learning about the rich culture and history of San José on a walking tour with a local guide who’ll point out the stunning architecture and beautiful parks nestled around every corner. This afternoon, watch the landscape shift as we travel to La Fortuna, making a stop to learn about the decorated Ox Carts that have been fundamental to Costa Rican farm life. Upon arriving in La Fortuna – a charming town known for its jungle wellness retreats – you can’t help but miss the Arenal Volcano dominating the skyline. Time to embrace the pura vida spirit!
LA FORTUNA
The outdoors await as we head into the rainforest to witness Arenal Volcano in all her majesty. Thick trails lie ahead, rewarding our efforts with incredible views of the volcano and lava fields. After sunset we’ll venture off on an evening walk, keeping an eye out for nocturnal animals, including rare frogs, tapirs, monkeys and reptiles that call this place home. But don’t worry, we’ll be safe in the hands of a guide who’ll fill us in on some fascinating insights along the way.
LA FORTUNA
This morning we’re off to meet a family who’ve lived in La Fortuna for generations. As they show us around their farm, we’ll learn how they harvest local fruit and veg, then see how a traditional Casado lunch is prepared as vibrant spices and freshly picked produce are transformed into mouthwatering dishes. With a bit of home-grown coffee to top off the experience, we’ll head back to soothe our muscles with a soak in natural hot pools, renowned for their healing properties due to the volcanic mineral waters. You’ll feel like you’ve wandered deep into a fairytale oasis, the perfect place to rejuvenate.
RINCON DE LA VIEJA NATIONAL PARK
Our next destination awaits as we leave La Fortuna, first making a stop at a local Maleku house. The Maleku are the indigenous people of Costa Rica, so this visit will give us a rare insight into their traditional way of life. Then we’re travelling further into the jungles of Río Celeste National Park, a place where water flows bluer than you’ll ever believe. ‘Don’t go chasing waterfalls?’ You’ll disagree when we reach the stunning pools and falls of Río Celeste. Later in the afternoon, we’ll arrive at our accommodation in Rincon de la Vieja, a lesser-known area away from the crowds, where we can truly reconnect with nature.
RINCON DE LA VIEJA NATIONAL PARK
Get your hiking shoes ready, as today we trek along jungle trails to see Costa Rica’s biodiverse beauty on full display. Volcanic vents and ancient mud pits scatter through the landscape, and with over 300 species of birds, monkeys, reptiles, and even jaguars living here, you may just discover your inner David Attenborough. This afternoon, thrill seekers have their time to shine with the option to head into the canopy for an adrenaline rush like no other on a zipline through the treetops. If you’d rather take it slow, kick back by the hotel pool and simply take in the sounds of the jungle.
SAMARA
Today’s first point of call is the quaint historical town of Liberia. We’ll gain more of an insight into Costa Rican life with a tour through the beautiful streets before grabbing lunch. On our way to Samara, we’ll visit the birthplace of Costa Rican pottery – not just an art form, but a timeless element of Costa Rican culture. This afternoon, it’s time to relax as we reach Samara. Perched on the sparkling edge of the Pacific, this coastal town retains a hip, laid-back charm. We’ll have plenty of time to soak it up over the next few nights, but first, who’s up for beach volleyball?
SAMARA
Pack your towel and sunscreen! White sand beaches, sun-drenched skies, and swaying palms await as we explore the more secluded beaches of Guanacaste today. Untouched by mass tourism, each beach offers something unique. Kick back with a good book, swim in calm waters, play a few games of football… whatever your beach vibe, we can make it happen. We have the whole day to soak up the diverse beauty of this stretch of paradise together.
SAMARA
There’s so much to do in Samara that we’ve given you an entire free day - thank us later! Whether it’s something zen like yoga, or you prefer something more active like a surf lesson or sea kayaking with snorkelling, there’s an activity for you. Otherwise, hanging out by the sea with a cold beverage topping up the tan is never a bad idea. Treat yourself, you’re on holiday!
ESTERILLOS
This morning, we head south to Esterillos - another beachside oasis known for surfing and serenity. It’s not uncommon to have this vast, unspoiled beach all to ourselves. After settling into our hotel, this afternoon we have time to explore the easy-going town, do a spot of shopping, and enjoy the slow pace of Costa Rican life over some drinks as the sun goes down.
ESTERILLOS
The spectacular Manuel Antonio National Park is in our sights, so keep your camera at the ready. This is the most visited National Park in Costa Rica – and it’ll be no surprise why as we explore its lush jungles and gorgeous beaches together. Keep your eyes peeled as we search for wildlife, including everyone’s favourite sloth! After a morning in the jungle, we’re off to see more untouched beaches. Just keep your eyes out for the cheeky monkeys, who also call these beaches home.
SAN JOSÉ
Leaving the coast behind, today we travel back to San José - where it all started. On the way, we’ll make a stop at the Crocodile Bridge, where you have the perfect vantage point to see these prehistoric creatures, perhaps being grateful to keep our distance. Settle back into the hotel and have a last chance to see anything you missed in San José the first time around. Tonight, we’ll gather for our farewell meal and drinks, toasting our unforgettable adventure.
SAN JOSÉ
Time to say adios as our 13 day Costa Rican dream comes to an end. Swap those Instagram handles and start planning the reunion, it’s not goodbye, just see you later! You can either check out and journey home, stay on longer in San José or continue your travels in Central America. If you need any assistance planning onward travel, we’re here to help every step of the way.

The best time to visit Costa Rica is from December to April (the dry season). This peak season boasts plenty of sunshine making it an ideal time for exploring jungles and lounging on beaches. If you don't mind getting a little morning shower, May through to November are quieter months to visit. During June and July, rain showers pause briefly, and Costa Rican forests burst with green foliage
While there are certain areas within Costa Rica known for crime, these are limited and nowhere near where INTRO goes.
Costa Rica is a very popular tourist destination and safe to travel to, with only the need for the usual commonsense precautions we recommend for all our destinations.
At INTRO we have not only chosen the most beautiful and fascinating areas of Costa Rica but also places we know to be safe. Another benefit of travelling Costa Rica as part of a guided group tour.
This trip covers a large part of Costa Rica, which means some early starts and long travel days, on occasionally winding and bumpy roads. We make these days as enjoyable as possible by having private transportation throughout, and including some interesting and exciting rest stops.
We stay at a mix of nice quality accommodations on this trip. Mostly twin share, traditional style 3-star hotels.
When should I arrive for my tour?
It’s best to arrive on the actual start date. This is when most people arrive. There are no activities on the first day but the group gets together in the evening for a welcome dinner at around 7pm.

Do I need a visa and can you arrange it for me?
Visa requirements vary depending on the country you are travelling to and your nationality.

There is some information about visas in our INTRO Travel App, which you can download here for iPhone or Google
IMPORTANT: We cannot apply for your visa for you and strongly recommend that you check on the relevant embassy or consulate website for the country/s you’ll be travelling to well in advance of your departure, as requirements can change and some countries require you to apply for a visa before you travel.
How much spending money will I need?
All your activities, transport, accommodation and some meals are included in the tour, so you will mainly just need money for extra meals, drinks, shopping and onward travel.

What’s the best way to access my money?
We recommend getting a Wise travel card, which will allow you to pay for things in local currency and avoid getting charged high foreign exchange fees by your bank.
Getting a Wise travel card is easy! You can get a Wise travel card here.
What should I pack for my tour?
Whether you have a backpack or a suitcase the main thing to keep in mind is not to bring too much stuff! We strongly recommend that you bring less than 20 kgs of stuff with you.
If you haven’t got a backpack yet, try and get one that zips open along the side. There will be places on the tour where you can do laundry, so you don’t need to bring 16 pairs of shorts with you.
You can view a packing checklist on our INTRO Travel App, which you can download here for iPhone or Google
How many people will be in my group?
Our groups usually have around 12-16 people on them, usually aged between 18 to early 40's.

As long as you have an appetite for adventure and are happy bonding with people of all backgrounds, you’ll fit in perfectly!

What if I'm travelling solo?
If you're struggling to convince your friends to join you on an adventure, you're not alone!
Travelling solo on a group tour can be one of the most exciting ways to experience a new destination, and you won't have to wait around for your mates to be ready. You leave yourself open to meeting amazing people, making new friends, and can keep yourself and your onward travel plans flexible.
The majority of our group members are solo travellers, so joining one of our group tours is a great way to meet people and make friends. Before your trip starts we'll put you in touch with the rest of your group so you can start chatting and get to know each other. And after the trip a lot of people continue travelling with the new friends they've made!
What if I'm travelling with a friend/s or partner?
Once you’ve made a booking just let us know who you’re travelling with and we can make a note that you are travelling together, and can put you in the same room.
A big part of the INTRO Travel difference is our after-trip support. Your group leader will spend enough time as needed to ensure you are totally comfortable and confident with where you’re going next. And can help organise and book whatever you need, including any transport, accommodation or trips you may want. We'll also provide 24/7 support and advice after your trip, and will always be there to help when you need it.
