information on Costa Rica.

From the mystical cloud forests and active volcanoes of the central mountains, to the wild coastlines populated by whales and dolphins and fringed by beautiful beaches, Costa Rica offers some of the most exciting wildlife viewing in the tropics.

From the palm-fringed beaches of the Caribbean coast to mist-shrouded mountains cloaked in cloud forest, Costa Rica is a paradise for the naturalist. This peaceful little country, located at a natural bridge between North and South America, contains a phenomenally diverse concentration of wildlife.

Within these rainforests and cloud forests there is an impressive array of flora and fauna. In the lowland jungles, monkeys create a commotion in the canopy, in the company of toucans and macaws. In the central highlands of Costa Rica, luxuriant cloud forests blanket mountains, valleys and active volcanoes. In this emerald kingdom, giant tree ferns, orchids, bromeliads and other epiphytes add an air of enchantment.

Arenal, where we stay two nights, is a continuously active volcano where weather permitting, we should be treated to stunning displays of volcanic fireworks. Our lodge is set amid a pristine rainforest, with waterfalls and extensive trails.

In addition to wildlife explorations accompanied by Costa Rica’s finest naturalist guides, our itinerary features premier accommodations and opportunities to relax, enjoy the local culture and take in the most beautiful tropical beaches in the country.
