The adventure

Discover Costa Rica from a whole new angle on this six-day adventure through the wild and wonderful northwest. Start your journey in San José, then head to the vibrant blue waters of Rio Celeste as you venture into the lush rainforests of Rincón de la Vieja National Park. With guided hikes and hidden gems, you'll explore the jungle before hitting the pristine beaches of Guanacaste to soak up some sun. Perfectly blending adventure and relaxation, this trip offers a fresh perspective on a country you’re sure to love even more.

After an early arrival and departure from San Jose, the group will travel to the famed ethereal blue waters of Rio Celeste. Set off on a CEO-led walk through the area with views of the river along the route before an included lunch. Continue onwards to the Rincon de la Vieja area where you will enjoy a welcome meeting and have dinner at the lodge restaurant, before a night walk on the nearby trails.

Enjoy breakfast at the lodge before transferring to Rincón de la Vieja National Park where you will embark on a hike in the area to gain a full sense of the tropical and volcanic landscape, while searching for resident wildlife. Travel back to the hotel in the afternoon for free time on the property. Activity options range from ziplining, hiking in the area, and various cultural experiences.
