Learn how to make tortillas and sugar cane juice, assist a reforestation project and soak in the nearby, hot springs. Head to higher elevation and visit Monteverde cloud forest, a unique eco-system offering a variety birds and picturesque views of high ridges and deep canyons- a spectacular location for the optional zip-lining amidst the tree canopies and hanging bridges.

Our portfolio of boutique, locally-owned lodges will ensure you travel in comfort. Start the journey in La Fortuna located at the base of the towering Arenal Volcano. Our bright, charming hotel boasts a pool and is the perfect place to unwind after the journey to Costa Rica. The next two nights are spent at a mountainside hotel in the Monteverde Cloud Reserve. Surround yourself in its cozy gardens and lush green landscapes with nature all around.
