Day 2 - Forest Hike

Today, after a delicious breakfast, we'll head up into the highlands of Costa Rica into the Los Angeles Cloud Forest.

We'll provide a Professional Naturalist Guide to point out and explain all of the forest's hidden treasures. That evening, enjoy a delicious dinner as you listen to the forest's nocturnal wildlife come alive. This area, in our opinion, is one of the most serine, tranquil places on earth...

Day 3 - Arenal Volcano & Hanging Bridges

Today, after breakfast, we'll start making our way to our next exotic location. La Fortuna is a quaint little mountain town located at the base of Costa Rica's most active volcano, Volcan Arenal. Once there, we'll start our next adventure! Arenal Hanging Bridges is one the most beautiful environmental friendly projects in Costa Rica. Located in front of the Arenal Volcano, within the corridor followed by birds migrating between North and South America, the trails and bridges of this project will bring you as close as you could ever hope to get to the birds, the flowers and the lush vegetation of the primary rainforest. Walk right into the forest, thanks to the imposing hanging bridges overlooking the canopy and our easy, safe and beautiful trails with views of the Volcano.
