During our trip to Costa Rica, we had the incredible experience of going on the "Off the Beaten Path" waterfall tour with Tropical Waterfalls Tour, and we can't recommend it enough! This adventure takes you to stunning hidden waterfalls, giving you a chance to explore the beauty of Costa Rica in a truly unique way. Please note that this tour involves a bit of hiking and an adrenaline rush as you'll have the opportunity to do some cliff jumping and slide down a 20' long "natural water slide"! It's perfect for those looking to add a more adventurous activity to their trip while enjoying the natural wonders of the area.
We had an amazing time on a zip line tour with Safari Adventures and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique way to experience Costa Rica’s breathtaking jungle from above! Soaring through the treetops, you’ll get unparalleled views of the lush rainforest while enjoying an adrenaline-pumping adventure. It's a fun and memorable activity for all ages, offering a mix of excitement and incredible scenery that truly captures the magic of the Costa Rican jungle. You can also book an ATV or kayaking tour through this same company!
Manuel Antonio National Park is a must-visit destination, offering stunning beaches, lush rainforests, and incredible wildlife. Open every day EXCEPT TUESDAY from 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM, the park features trails where you can spot sloths, monkeys, iguanas, and colorful birds. Tickets must be purchased online in advance, as they often sell out. Guided tours are not necessary but are recommended for spotting more wildlife, and again, should only be booked online. Be cautious of individuals posing as guides at the park entrance—they are not legitimate and may try to scam you. If you plan to visit Manuel Antonio Beach (and you absolutely should!), be sure to wear your swimsuit and enjoy the crystal-clear waters. Don’t forget sunscreen, towels, and comfortable walking shoes for a day of exploration in this unforgettable paradise!
