Location of Adventure

Costa Rica, Central America

Group Size Limit

Approximately 10 travelers
A very important feature of our Costa Rica ecotours is the limited group size, as nature expeditions are best experienced with small numbers of travelers.

Included

Internal flight from San José to Tiskita, accommodations, meals from dinner on Day 1 through breakfast on final day, bottled water, services of NHA Expedition Leader, local guides and lodge staff, airport transfers on Day 1 and final day, most gratuities, all permits, entrance fees and taxes.

Not Included

Travel to and from start and end point of trip, alcoholic beverages, some gratuities, passport and visa fees, optional activities, items of a personal nature (phone calls, laundry, etc.), airport and departure taxes, optional travel insurance.

Physical Requirements

Moderate / Flexible
Our itinerary includes short- to medium-length walks over uneven terrain, over wet, slippery surfaces and steep inclines, and with some altitude gain. We stress that all activities are optional. Travelers should be aware that the heat and humidity may be very high in Tiskita and Manuel Antonio, while temperatures may be quite cold in the Talamanca Mountains, especially at night.  Cerro de la Muerte is between 9,000 - 10,000 feet above sea level, and roads throughtout the trip may be bumpy.

Important Information About This Trip

This meticulously designed Costa Rica expedition takes small groups of travelers on an intimate journey into three different ecosystems, offering a range of activities that give our guests a deep and unique view into this world-renowned ecotourism destination. Some fairly long drives along less-than-high-quality roads may be necessary.
