Craving a little excitement? A tour of magnificent Costa Rica can satisfy your need for adventure. From the exotic to the extreme, there is a Costa Rica adventure tour to satisfy every traveler’s wildest desires.
Costa Rica is the second smallest country in Central America. It is bordered by the Pacific Ocean in the west, and the Atlantic Ocean in the east. While small in size, this country is big on adventure. There are beaches, jungles and forests to explore, and the Costa Rican climate and geography create a warm and hospitable retreat for tourists of all ages.
Cost Rica is famous for incredibly lush green forests and abundant wildlife. The moment you step into the rainforest, you’ll encounter fascinating creatures like howler monkeys, exotic birds and frogs. The rainforest denizens are among the many reasons why Costa Rica adventure tours are so popular.
Planning a Costa Rica adventure tour is so exciting, because you have such a spectacular array of activities to look forward to. Your tour package may include white-water rafting, sport fishing, wildlife sightings or a hike through the mystical cloud forest. Some plans offer rainforest tours, biking through tropical plantations and sightseeing at exotic locales. Be certain that your Costa Rica adventure tour includes a visit to the east and west shorelines, both of which are among the world’s most important nesting places for the green sea turtles.
If you have an adventurous spirit, you’ll find the excitement you crave with a Costa Rica adventure tour featuring whitewater rafting. Costa Rica offers first-rate rafting opportunities for beginners and experts alike. Spend a day on the rapids, or go for the ultimate rush and book a multi-day whitewater challenge. Your Costa Rican rafting adventure is limited only to how long you can endure the thrill and excitement of this extreme adventure.
Whitewater rafting not your thing? There are many more adventures in store in beautiful Costa Rica. You can kayak the remote rainforest creeks of Tortuguero National Park. If your idea of fun involves wheels, try an adrenaline-pumping bike ride to the flanks of the Arenal Volcano. Take your vacation experience to new heights as you perch on a platform 120 feet above the ground to view the rainforest. Or, if it’s serenity you seek, indulge in the solitude of a quiet hike through the tropical rainforest.
Costa Rica provides a vital natural nesting habitat for the massive Atlantic Green sea turtles. Stroll the east or west coastlines and you may spot these magnificent creatures, some weighing as much as 300 pounds. Escorted by the most knowledgeable Tortuguero guides, you can watch as the Atlantic green sea turtle lays her lay eggs, covers her nest and quietly returns to the sea.
This is a truly spectacular, once-in-a-lifetime experience that you’ll never forget. Extreme sports can be fun, but few spectacles can make your heart race and your blood pump quite like the breathtaking beauty of nature. The nesting ritual of the Atlantic Green sea turtle is unlike anything you’ve ever seen, and it’s rarely experienced anywhere other than the Costa Rican coastline.
If your idea of paradise calls for nothing more than a quiet stroll along the beach, you’ll be happy to know that there are Costa Rican tour packages available for you as well. You don’t have to be an extreme adventurer to enjoy an extremely wonderful vacation in Costa Rica. There are adventure tours with a variety of prices, itineraries and activities for everyone.
