Irazu Volcano, Orosi Valley, & Lankester Garden Tour

We'll pick you up from your hotel in San José and head to the province of Cartago, where the Irazu Volcano is located. Along the route, we'll admire the local flora and fauna.

At 3,432 meters high (11,259 feet), the Irazu Volcano is the most active volcano in Costa Rica. We'll explore one of its craters and observe a green lake. Views of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans from the volcano are notable.

Next, we'll visit the Basilica of Our Lady of the Angels in Cartago before proceeding to the Lankester Gardens, featuring over 800 species of orchids and plants.

Afterward, we'll enjoy a traditional Costa Rican meal which includes rice, beans, salad, meat (chicken, fish, or pork), dessert, and a refreshing drink.

We will then travel to the Orosi and Ujarrás Valley, surrounded by mountains and various farms, with historical significance including colonial settlements and the Franciscan Order.
