Tortuguero National Park Trip

After hotel pickup, we will depart with a natural scientist guide to Braulio Carrillo National Park, an area featuring an extensive forest and visible waterfalls. At over 3,000 metres high, the breathtaking Barva Volcano will be part of our tour, alongside over 135 animal species found in the park.

We will pause for a typical Costa Rican breakfast, including eggs, the well-known gallo pinto with beans and rice, juice, and coffee.

Next, we'll visit the banana plantations to learn about the growth and exportation of vital products, including chocolate and coffee. Following this, we will board a boat to sail into Tortuguero National Park, noted for its rich biological diversity.

The park is distinguished by the green turtle, along with other animals such as manatees, sea cows, and crocodiles, as well as endangered species like sloths, monkeys, and white-nosed coatimundis.

Lunch will feature a buffet-style menu with salads, meat, sides, dessert, coffee, and drinks. Afterward, we will explore the village of Tortuguero, a street accessible only by cycling and walking, featuring popular local bars and restaurants.

We will conclude the trip with a return to your hotel in San José.
