About this trip

 

Experience Costa Rica's most exciting destinations: Tortuguero, Arenal Volcano, and a beach on the Pacific Coast of your choice. Couple of nights in each  location will allow you to explore the local culture and soak up the amazing natural wonders of Costa Rica.


You’ll start the trip going to Tortuguero National Park in Northeast Costa Rica, recognized internationally for protecting the most important green turtle nesting beach in the Western Hemisphere. Made up of an extensive network of rivers and canals, access is possible only through small boats. A place unlike any other; where the small communities surrounding the park still preserve their traditions, you’ll experience a  true encounter with Caribbean culture.


Next you will head to La Fortuna, a tiny town located near the foot of Arenal volcano. The perfect place to kick back and enjoy the area’s superb beauty, La Fortuna still retains much of its original Tico charm. From La Fortuna you will explore the surrounding areas of the volcano, soak in thermal waters.


Your last few days will be spent at one of the beautiful beaches of the golden coast where you will have the opportunity to relax.

My wife and I had a great time with the family and tour guide. We enjoyed the experience of a comfortable travel, stay and the lovely hosts who took care of us in all areas. Our expectations were not only met, but overachieved. We were curious to learn about the farm and in particular about cacao, and had the chance strolling through the jungle farm land, tasting various fruits and taking on hand of the various steps producing chocolate. It's also important to say, that David, our tour guide, was amazing in the way how he took care of us. - We would recommend this trip to anyone, who like getting to know local people, enjoy a little adventure and is interested not only in Lamas and Machu Pichu but also side paths that important for country and culture.

Dear Sofia and Pablo, We wanted to thank you for organizing this special trip for us. What was really key for us is your efficiency and proactivity during the trip. The app TripLoop is really helpful, well organized and all the recommandation are of good quality! You were able to help us from building the schedule of this trip during more than 2 months to re adapt the program because of an health issue. All the hotels, guides, shuttle transfer and activities were of high quality and enables us to meet interested and local people! We would 100% recommend this professional and local agency :) All the best! Morgane & Benoit

Easy connections to avoid a 5+ hour drive to San Jose from Nosara after 10 days of travel by boat, plane, and driving. Thanks to Alicia for arranging it quickly.

Local planned an awesome itinerary for us. From Tortuguero, through Arenal/La Fortuna, Monteverde to Nosara every stop was ideal. Seamless connections, excellent accommodations, fantastic people, amazing biodiversity and experiences in each place. Our contacts, Alicia & Madelyn, quickly responded to any questions and provided the necessary information to make this a stellar vacation. Highest recommendation possible to Lokal and visiting Costa Rica.
