From the palm-fringed beaches of the Caribbean coast to mist-shrouded mountains cloaked in cloud forest, Costa Rica is a paradise for the naturalist. This peaceful little country, located at a natural bridge between North and South America, contains a phenomenally diverse concentration of wildlife that you can experience on one of International Expeditions’ Costa Rica vacations.

Travel to Costa Rica to explore rainforests and cloud forests where there is an impressive array of flora and fauna. In the lowland jungles, monkeys create a commotion in the canopy, in the company of toucans and macaws. In the central highlands of Costa Rica, luxuriant cloud forests blanket mountains, valleys and active volcanoes. In this emerald kingdom, giant tree ferns, orchids, bromeliads and other epiphytes add an air of enchantment.


International Expeditions’ comprehensive itinerary travels to Arenal, Costa Rica. Spending the night near this continuously active volcano where weather permitting, we should be treated to stunning displays of volcanic fireworks. DUring this comprehensive tour of Costa Rica, guests also take in Tortuguero National Park and the lush lowlands of
Sarapiquí.

 

Our Costa Rica tours are full of wildlife explorations accompanied by Costa Rica’s finest naturalist guides. The itinerary features premier accommodations and opportunities to relax, enjoy the local culture and take in the most beautiful tropical beaches in the country.
