Join our expert Bold Spirit trip leader on a women-only, small group adventure to Central America. This is one of our most popular wintertime solo trips for women.

Costa Rica offers all the ingredients you need for a perfect tropical escape: palm-fringed beaches, friendly locals, warm weather, and thermal-fed spas.

Ditch the cold weather and hit the reset button in this tiny country where beauty and the “pura vida” lifestyle abound. 

Explore Costa Rica with a naturalist guide who knows and loves the country well.

Soak in thermal springs near Rincon de la Vieja National Park.

Spot agoutis, monkeys, motmots, and more. Then stroll along pristine Pacific beaches.

This is a fun-packed trip with lots of opportunities to connect with yourself, other adventurous women, and this beautiful slice of paradise. Leave the logistics to us and prepare to be pampered.

Fly into the Liberia Airport (Daniel Oduber Quiros International Airport). Do not fly into San Jose. Our private driver will pick you up at the airport. Airport transfers are included in the package price.

Note that you need to be at the hotel no later than 4:00PM today.

Enjoy a group welcome dinner together at the hotel restaurant and get to know your Costa Rica travel buddies.

Bounce and splash along five kilometers (three miles) of Class II and III rapids in crystal clear waters. Your river tube has special handles and a protective bottom and you will wear both a helmet and life jacket. Local guides will accompany you along the way. This tubing adventure is fun for all ages and is often a highlight for our guests.

Maybe you prefer a quieter afternoon?

Hang by the pool or opt for a spa treatment (facial or massage) at the Simbiosis Spa instead of tubing (additional cost).

After breakfast, we’ll set off with our private driver to the magical Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, where waterfalls tumble, trees stretch sky-high, and misty canopies hum with life.

With your expert guide leading the way, you’ll be on the lookout for colorful orchids, bromeliads, and all sorts of fascinating creatures—plus the chance (fingers crossed!) to spot the elusive quetzal. This morning’s hike is easy to moderate, so lace up your comfy sneakers and bring a day pack.

Later, we’ll swing by a local women’s cooperative for a little shopping and a relaxed lunch, followed by some free time to wander, rest, or explore however you please. This meal is not included.

Grab your headlamp and a light jacket...it’s time for a Night Walk! As the forest comes alive after dark, your guides will help you spot what most of us would walk right past—sleeping birds, curious mammals, reptiles, and some seriously cool bugs. This easy-to-moderate walk is one you won’t forget.

Our private driver will take us from Monteverde to Carrillo, a small town with a perfect crescent of beachfront. Paradise found!

Arrive and check into your hotel for the next 2 nights.

After breakfast at the hotel, there will be transfers to the airport in Liberia. Take the “pura vida” lifestyle home with you along with some priceless memories.

Airport transfers are included in the package price.
