Essential Costa Rica:

My choice. Naturally.

Costa Rica

With its verdant rainforests, active volcanoes, hot springs, abundant wildlife, and beaches, Costa Rica packs an incredible diversity in such a small country.

There are three different types of Costa Rica vacations we offer.

  • Guanacaste Beach Stay. Fly into Liberia airport and stay at one of the beachfront resorts on the Guanacaste area along Costa Rica’s Pacific coastline. Resorts range from moderate to luxury, some being all-inclusive resorts. Ideal for families, couples, and friends who are looking for a beach vacation with a few day excursions to explore.
  • Custom Independent Itinerary. Fly into either San Jose or Liberia and visit multiple areas tailor-made to fit you best. Rainforest + Volcano + Beach is the most popular combination. You can concentrate your interests (such as canopy tours, hiking, and whitewater rafting for soft adventure; cloud forests, rain forests, and turtle time for an eco-adventure). Included in your itinerary is transportation, so you don’t have to rent a car. We can also arrange your day tours. Great for a honeymoon or a family with older kids. Custom designed for groups.
  • Guided Vacation. We offer several great escorted tour options in the moderate to upscale range. Travel with a small to medium-sized group and with an experienced guide. This is by far the easiest way to explore Costa Rica and all its marvels. We even have a special Family Experiences tour for families with kids ages 5 and up.
