| Itinerary |
Day 1 San JoseGet accustomed to Costa Rican time on a leisurely walk through San Jose or perhaps visit the lively San Pedro area. Days 2-3 La Fortuna / Arenal VolcanoHead to La Fortuna and the beautiful surrounds of Lake Arenal, where big winds sweeping in from the Caribbean make the lake a windsurfer's delight. Why not visit the active Arenal Volcano - the sight of this magnificent beast lighting up the night sky is truly breathtaking. Days 4-5 MonteverdeEcologists have suggested that the steamy Monteverde cloud forest was actually once two different ecosystems, straddling each side of the Continental Divide. As a result, the area boasts several unique species of flora and fauna. Explore the emerald-green cloud forest by foot to admire the wide array of wildlife and to learn how this incredible ecological curiosity came to be. Days 6-7 Manuel Antonio National ParkDiscover the soft-sand beaches, tropical vegetation and turquoise waters of Manuel Antonio National Park. Hike along the trails to spot some of the abundant wildlife - be on the lookout for armadillos, sloths and colourful birds. Impossible to resist, the warm waters offer great swimming, kayaking or surfing. While Manuel Antonio itself is a laidback kind of town, its nightlife is famously fiery - so kick up those heels and get a taste for Costa Rican revelry. Days 8-9 San JoseReturn to San Jose to meander through the stalls of the Mercado Central, take a look at the collection of shimmering art at the Museo de Oro Precolombino y Numismatica or catch a show at the city's pride and joy - the Teatro Nacional. There is many a wonderful way to end this fantastic Costa Rican adventure.
