Welcome to San José & City Sights

Arrive at the San José International Airport, where your private guide/driver will greet you with a warm Costa Rican welcome, a detailed trip briefing, and your welcome kit. Enjoy a comfortable transfer to your hotel for your first night in San José.
If you arrive early, you can immerse yourself in the capital’s charm: stroll through the bustling Central Market, marvel at the elegance of the National Theater, and, if you’re up for it, enjoy dinner at a scenic lookout restaurant. For adults, we can also arrange a local craft beer tasting to kick off your adventure in true Tico style.
