We love…
Adventuring through five different national parks and listening to the nocturnal sounds of the forest on two after-dark nature hikes.
Do you dream of meeting a sleepy sloth? Have you wondered where the unusual-looking tapir lives? Do you long to tick the resplendent quetzal off your ‘incredible birds’ list? Costa Rica is home to all these fascinating creatures, plus impressive reptiles, colourful frogs, unique beetles and hundreds of bird species. Our Costa Rica wildlife tours give you the opportunity to trek through cloud forests, sail along crocodile rivers, be surrounded by a kaleidoscope of butterflies, and let the nocturnal creatures sing you to sleep.
