Our Destinations

Though relatively small in size, Costa Rica is home to one of the highest levels of biodiversity in the world. We have chosen destinations and activities that showcase the best of this magical country while making an effort to stray away from large crowds and big groups of visitors. We have selected the destinations that represent the most significant ecosystems and altitudinal floors of the country, from the Tropical Rainforest of Sarapiquí to the exuberant Cloud Forest of Monteverde, from the white sandy beaches of Guanacaste to the highlands in San Gerardo de Dota, from the Pacific Ocean to active Volcanoes.
