The Central Valley Tours
Discover with us one of the most important and beautiful regions of Costa Rica. For those seeking the advantages of a city style vacation, the central valley offers a great variety of tourist attractions. Also, due to the size of the country, anyone can go practically everywhere in one day, allowing visitors to experience almost all wonders of Costa Rica from the comfort of the city. The one day tours that can be enjoyed from this area operate daily with regular departures from the main hotels of San Jose, each one providing the three main components of the magic of Costa Rica: its varied natural wealth, the friendliness of the Costa Ricans, and its tropical flavor.
