With handpicked boutique stays and immersive, guided experiences included, this journey is a seamless and soul-stirring escape into the wild heart of Central America.

San José

Your Costa Rican journey begins with a warm welcome in the capital, San José. Settle into your first night surrounded by colonial charm, lush valleys, and glimpses of distant volcanoes. Enjoy a relaxed evening before the adventure begins.

Puerto Limón (Caribbean Coast)

Head east to Limón, where the vibrant Afro-Caribbean culture meets untamed jungle and golden beaches. Explore tropical rainforests, spot sloths and toucans, and discover the laid-back rhythm of life on Costa Rica’s Caribbean coast.

Arenal Volcano National Park

Next, travel inland to the dramatic landscapes of Arenal. Stay in a boutique eco-lodge with views of the iconic volcano. Soak in natural hot springs, hike through lava trails, and experience the lush rainforest on a guided hanging bridges tour.

Monteverde Cloud Forest

Climb into the misty highlands of Monteverde, where the cloud forest hums with life. Your stay here offers a magical chance to spot rare wildlife, explore suspended walkways in the treetops, and visit local farms producing sustainable coffee and chocolate. It’s a cool, quiet contrast to the steamy lowlands.

Nosara (Pacific Coast)

Arrive in Nosara, a chic yet peaceful beach town on the Nicoya Peninsula. Here, barefoot luxury meets jungle calm. Spend five nights unwinding in a boutique beachfront resort, where yoga, surfing, and sunset dinners are the order of the day.

Heredia

On your final night, return inland to Heredia, a quiet and authentic town just outside San José. Enjoy a final taste of Costa Rican culture, set against the backdrop of volcanoes and rolling coffee plantations.
