Tours in the Southern Pacific Region

Hiking in the Corcovado National Park: Guided by a naturalist along the trails of the park, you will be able to enjoy an astonishing waterfall and a picnic on one of the beautiful beaches of the park.

Night Excursion: The only way to partake of the true strength and life of the rain forest is by visiting it in the dark. Walking 45 minutes through the undergrowth of the forest, you will arrive to a delightful clearing: Claro del Bosque. Before returning to the hotel, enjoy a fresh cup of coffee, sugar cane drink, and homemade "tortillas" cooked on a wood burning stove in a typical farmhouse.

Bird watching Tour: Very early in the morning share the fresh air with the 350 species of birds which have been found in Corcovado. The tours at the beginning of the morning are perfect for observing the wildlife of the area. For bird and animal lovers, this visit will be grand for seeing birds, the famous morpho butterfly, monkeys and other animals.

Horseback riding: Enjoy a horseback ride from the rain forest to the majestic waterfall for a tasty meal of typical Costa Rican foods. Mid-day tours to one of the white-sand beaches where the scarlet macaws are easily spotted are also offered.

Visit to San Josecito: Take the opportunity to visit a beautiful beach where you will be able to swim and snorkel in a marvelous coral reef. A picnic on the beach awaits, then a walk through the forest, to finish with a dip in the fresh waters of a river.

Visit to Caño island: Located 16.5 kilometers off the western coast of the Osa peninsula, the island has white beaches, rocky platforms and cliffs. The existence of stone spheres, tombs with statues of the same material, gold offerings, and polychrome ceramic leads to believe that the island was used solely for a burial ground for important people during the Pre-Columbian era. It has a coral reef ideal for snorkeling.

Visit to the mangroves: Guided tour through the canals of the Sierpe River and the mangroves. Admire the monkeys, serpents, crocodiles, anteaters and a variety of birds of the region.
