When you step off the plane, the enchantment begins in this most ecologically diverse Eden in the hemisphere. Feel safe, relax & enjoy yourself on this small island of tranquility in Central America. Experience the popular national parks in this country that has set aside 30% of its territory for protected areas. Travel across the country by private coach with your own naturalist guide. This season affords comfortable temperatures & a lack of tourist crowds. From the high mountain cloud forests of Santa Elena and Monteverde to the lovely white sand beaches of Manuel Antonio Park on the Pacific Coast you will love this tour! |
