A holiday to Costa Rica has the sort of scenery that drops jaws. Here, you can seamlessly travel between pristine rainforests, steaming hot springs and smouldering volcanoes to idyllic remote beaches. This stunning diversity of landscapes and ecosystems makes for one of the most biodiverse countries in the world.
As a premier wildlife destination in Latin America, you’ll even have monkeys, sloths, giant turtles, and a vast array of bird species joining you on any experience.
Costa Rica is perfectly set up for adventure lovers too, with rapids, rafts and ziplines seemingly slung across every canyon, along with top quality lodges that have been pioneers of eco-tourism in the region.
As the adventure capital of the Americas there is no shortage of ways to plunge into Costa Rica’s wildlife and beautiful surroundings. In Monteverde cloud forest meet hummingbirds, spider monkeys, howler monkeys and three toed sloths.
The rope bridges and walkways tied between the treetops offer a rare chance to get a little closer to the animals. So if you’re looking for a Costa Rican wildlife holiday, then this is definitely a must see.
Always fancied getting up close to a volcano? Follow hiking trails up and around the foothills of Arenal, once Costa Rica’s most active volcano, before soaking your weary feet in volcanic hot springs.
For yet more of a soaking, head to the Pacuare River to go white water rafting down the deep river gorge – you’ll be plummeting through lush primary rainforest, although you’ll not have much time to take in the view as you tackle the swirling rapids.
“Costa Rica is one of the most exciting places I’ve been to and a must visit for any adventure loving family! From tubing along rivers and ziplining through the clouds to wildlife boat tours and relaxing on the beach, it has it all.”
