Costa Rica Tours and Activities Guide
Costa RicaCosta Rica offers many exciting ways to immerse yourself in its natural elements. It is the consummate destination for exploring ecosystems and connecting with a peaceful culture. Whether discovering fascinating species with a friendly Costa Rican guide, zipping across the rainforest canopy, or relaxing in a volcano-heated hot spring, there are a variety of tours and activities to engage travelers of all types.
Bird Watching
Owing both to a temperate climate and an environment that is rich in fruits and flowers, Costa Rica is blessed with an avian population that is diverse, colorful, and prolific. Nearly 840 species of birds can be found here, ranging from Scarlet Macaws to resplendent quetzals to Keel-billed Toucans. Accompanied by experienced naturalist guides, birding tours are hands down the best way to spot these animals. Binoculars and birding booklet in hand, tours wind through forest trails and up rivers searching for the winged creatures. Monteverde, Guápiles, and the Caño Negro Wildlife Reserve are some of the country’s finest places to go birding.
Coffee Tour
Coffee has played a pivotal role in the development of Costa Rica. It has shaped social, cultural and political institutions and is still one of country’s major agricultural exports. The story of the grano de oro (golden bean) began in the 18th century and continues to this day. Coffee tours are packed with culture and history, and include visits to the coffee fields, roasters, and cafés. Take one of these tours and you’re guaranteed to learn the ins and outs of coffee production, as well as to enjoy one of the world’s freshest cups of joe. Although coffee plantations are scattered throughout Costa Rica, the highland areas surrounding San Jose and the Tilaran Mountain range that extends to Monteverde are ideal climates for Coffee plantations. Coffee took root in Costa Rica near the end of the 1700s. The Arabica coffee plant was first grown in Costa Rica’s Central Valley, where ideal growing conditions – including fertile soil, high altitude, and a cool climate – contributed to its success. Cultivation continued and the Costa Rican government soon realized the enormous economic potential of coffee. To encourage production, the government offered free land to coffee farmers in the 19th century. During this time, production skyrocketed. By 1829, the revenue from coffee exports surpassed tobacco, sugar, and cacao. Coffee was initially exported to Panama and then to Chile, where it was rebranded under the name “Café Chileno de Valparaíso” and sent to England. In the mid-1800s, English captain William Le Lacheur Lyon sent hundreds of bags of Costa Rican coffee to Britain. It fell into the right hands and sparked a national interest in Costa Rican coffee. Indeed, until World War II England was the largest recipient of Costa Rican coffee exports. The coffee industry created a wealthy upper class of growers and traders. Many had ties with government officials and helped secure the role of coffee in the Costa Rican economy. Although the balance of power during this time was unequal, the revenue from coffee did contribute to the modernization of Costa Rica. It helped build a railroad to the country’s Atlantic coast and construct the National Theater in San José. Nowadays, Costa Rican coffee is prized as some of the world’s best and is shipped everywhere from Austin to Amsterdam. Costa Rica is the 13th-largest producer of coffee in the world, churning out around 1.5 million bags every year. 90 percent of the coffee is exported, with the revenue accounting for around 11 percent of Costa Rica’s export earnings. Small farmers play a large role in this production—nearly 90 percent of all producers cultivate less than 12 acres (5 ha). Fair Trade and Cooperatives Fair trade coffee is becoming increasingly popular throughout the world. That makes a big difference in places like Costa Rica, which has over 70,000 farmers growing coffee. According to globalexchange.org, around 45,000 of these farmers belong to cooperatives that may be involved with fair trade organizations. Fair trade organizations like Fairtrade International and the Rain Forest Alliance work to secure better rights and salaries for small farmers. Fair trade certification promotes environmental, social and economic sustainability, and often emphasizes shade-grown and organic coffee. Farms that are inspected by Fair Trade labeling organizations must comply with environmental, health and safety regulations. Cooperatives bring together small farmers to help secure better bargaining prices for their products. There are cooperatives in Santa Elena, Buenavista, Sarapiquí, Tilarán, Montes de Oro, Pilangosta, Llano Bonito, and Coopeldos. Some cooperatives are also part of a secondary cooperative that works on larger scales to improve the standards of living, rainforest reforestation, crop diversification, women’s development, and educational programs in the communities of coffee farmers. Farming, Production, and Tours While traveling through Costa Rica, you’ll likely see coffee fields spreading out in green-and-brown mosaics across the hillsides. It’s an attractive, pastoral sight. Most of the country’s coffee is grown in the San José, Alajuela, Puntarenas, Heredia, and Cartago provinces. These provinces have climates that are perfect for growing coffee. In such places, the soil is volcanic, slightly acidic and extremely fertile. The higher elevations – particularly between 3,900 and 5,600 ft. (1,200 and 1,700 m) – have cooler climates that are nicely suited to the needs of coffee plants. Most coffee berries are handpicked from the plants. The berries are then taken to beneficios (processing plants), where they are washed and removed of pulp. The beans are then dried in the sun or by a machine. Afterwards, beans are sorted according to size and shape and sealed off in bags. The most classic Costa Rican coffees are mild and softly acidic. They are good afternoon pick-me-ups and pair well with deserts. Growers are currently experimenting with new flavors that are brighter and fruitier. These are less traditional than older varieties, but may find an audience in the international market. Touring a coffee plantation is a great way to learn about the history and production of this important plant. As you walk through the fields, guides will explain how coffee is grown and harvested. You’ll learn about the de-pulping, drying, and roasting process, and will often be given a fresh cup of coffee at the end. It’s a fun and informative experience.
Zip Lines
Zip-lines above the canopy are in many ways synonymous with Costa Rica. Originally introduced during the 1970s, zip-lines have developed into one of the country’s most popular and widespread activities. Composed of steel cables and platforms strung at various heights between trees, they offer travelers a unique means of accessing beautiful and remote natural areas. And although they undoubtedly boost the adrenalin of each and every participant, zip-lines also educate their riders on ecology, botany, and reforestation practices. You can find zip-lines all over Costa Rica, but some of the best are in Monteverde, Arenal, and Manuel Antonio.
Rafting
For hundreds of years, torrential weather has shaped Costa Rica’s valleys and canyons, creating a landscape whose twists, dips, and bumps are ripe for rafting opportunities. Some of the country’s most well known rivers – including the Reventazon, Pacuare and Corobici – carve through dense forests and meander along inspiring waterfalls. Rafting options exist for all ages and abilities, and can range from maneuvering through technical rapids to gliding along smooth stretches that are ideal for nature watching. Professional guides attend the adventures and ensure that all experiences are safe, fun and memorable.
Suspension Bridges
Suspension bridges spread across the forest canopy, revealing the complex ecosystems that emerge both at the tops of trees and in the valleys below. Bridges of all sizes – ranging from 100 to 1000 feet – are safely and smartly constructed to allow visitors all the time they need to appreciate the magnificence of the rainforest. Guided tours add invaluable information to the bridge trips, as escorts often point out plants and animals that had seemed invisible a moment earlier. Some of the country’s best suspension bridges are located in Monteverde, Arenal and the Caribbean.
Rappel
Rappelling tours are a fun, safe and exciting way to experience some of Costa Rica’s most magnificent landscapes. The sport, also known as canyoning, involves a controlled descent down a rock face using a secured rope. Oftentimes this descent is within boundaries of a waterfall, making it a memorable – and yes, moist – activity that even the most advanced thrill-seekers will enjoy. Rappelling tours are often held in conjunction with other adventure activities such as zip lining, white-water rafting, horseback riding, and more. Professionally trained Canyoneers manage the tours, so no experience is necessary.
Hot Springs
Owing mostly to its large number of volcanoes, the rich landscape of Costa Rica is dotted with thermal hot springs that come in every size, shape, and temperature imaginable. Some are elaborate and luxurious, allowing you the opportunity to sip a martini at a wet bar or unwind in a private heated nook, while others are a bit more playful, supplying guests with a sampling of water slides and deep pools to plunge into. Many hot spring tours are accompanied by other activities, including mud baths, massages, horseback rides, zip lines, hanging bridge tours, and more. Some of the best can be found in the La Fortuna/Arenal area, as well as in Rincón de La Vieja.
Hiking
From the flat plains along the coast to cloud forests atop the continental divide, Costa Rica’s landscape is diverse and teeming with life. The hiking here is excellent and for many travelers is a primary reason to visit the country. There are easy hikes along flat and well-maintained trails, as well as more challenging treks up mountains like Cerro Chirripó, Costa Rica’s highest peak. Guided hikes provide a fun, safe and educational outdoor experience for travelers.
Catamaran Tour
Catamaran tours blend both leisure and diversion in these half-day, sensationally pleasant trips. Sailing silently across the ocean, the catamarans pass isolated islands and rocky coastlines, calm bays and towering cliffs. Passengers will be given the opportunity to snorkel above colorful reefs, lounge along secluded beaches, and paddle kayaks through picturesque caves. Snacks and drinks are served during the tours, and both morning and afternoon trips are available.
Aerial Tram
Tram rides provide travelers with some of the most unique and unobstructed views of the forest canopy in all of Costa Rica. Open-air gondolas – which generally hold between four and six people – ascend silently and smoothly above the treetops, allowing passengers to peer down into the complex ecosystem below. Naturalist guides are often onboard helping visitors to understand what they’re seeing, which, in a country that hosts over 500,000 different species, is quite a lot! Tram tours are frequently offered in conjunction with other activities, such as hanging bridge and zip-line tours, and can be found in places like Arenal, Monteverde, Jacó, Limón, and Guapiles.
Night Tour
Although Costa Rica is well-known for its vibrant creatures of the day, more than 60 percent of the wildlife found in its tropical rainforests is nocturnal. Night tours aim at acquainting travelers with these creatures and the special adaptations they use to survive in the tropics. A flashlight in hand and a bilingual guide by your side, you’ll be led along forest trails as you search for insects, reptiles, amphibians, mammals and more. In places like Tortuguero, you’ll carefully comb the beach for nesting sea turtles by the light of the moon, while in Arenal your search for nocturnal species may be accompanied by glimpses of lava pouring down the sides of the volcano.
Kayaking
Blessed with over 802 miles of coastline and boasting countless lakes, rivers and estuaries, Costa Rica is ripe for kayaking opportunities. Kayak tours allow for greater and more private exploration than mainland excursions, simply because there aren’t as many people on the water. The tours, which are open to both experienced and inexperienced kayakers, are a wonderful way to spot wildlife both above and below the water. Oftentimes they involve a combination with other activities, such as snorkeling or mountain biking. Places to kayak include Lake Arenal, Manuel Antonio’s estuaries and Jacó’s coastline, among others.
Scuba Diving
Costa Rica’s diverse, tropical coastlines will inspire you to dive beneath the waves. We can offer diving lessons for people with little experience, as well as dives that are tailored to more advanced divers. With its Pacific and Caribbean coasts, as well as nearly untouched destinations like the Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica offers an intense variety of diving opportunities.
Snorkeling
The waters surrounding Costa Rica are home to nearly 7,000 marine species, some 3.5 percent of the total aquatic life on Earth. Snorkelling through these warm, clear waters is a fabulous way to enjoy this aquatic biodiversity. A variety of tropical fish – including puffers, barracudas, parrotfish, snappers and butterfly fish – can be found swimming among brightly-colored coral reefs, while on the seafloor below, starfish, sea cucumbers and sand dollars can be seen creeping slowly along. A knowledgeable local guide will equip participants with quality snorkels, masks and fins, and provide access to astounding regional seascapes.
Sport Fishing
More than 40 fishing world records have been registered along the central and southern portions of Costa Rica’s Pacific coast. With offshore waters that boast fish weighing between 4 and 400 pounds – including sailfish, marlin, yellowfin tuna, wahoo, snapper and more – it’s little surprise that the fishing here is so good. As such, sport fishing tours are a wonderful way for both beginners and experts alike to get their hands wet while reeling in a whopper. The tours, which employ well-equipped fishing boats, can be as short as a half day or as long as seven days. Certain seasons are better for certain types of fish, and some of the best fishing spots in the country are Manual Antonio, Playa Ocotal, and Uvita. To get an idea about what fish you will encounter during different parts of the year and of course where they are please familiarize yourself with our Costa Rica map here.
Chocolate Tour
Chocolate has a rich history in Costa Rica. Made from the seeds the cacao tree, chocolate has been used in ceremonial drinks, as currency, and for desert. Chocolate tours in Costa Rica teach travelers about the growing, harvesting, and drying process. You’ll learn about how chocolate was used in ancient cultures and how it’s processed today. And you’ll also get to try some fantastic organic chocolate.
Home Stay
Homestays in Costa Rica are typically paired with either language courses or volunteering. During a homestay, you will live with a local Costa Rican family. Your host family will provide you with sleeping quarters, bathroom access, and usually three meals a day. The real benefit of a homestay, however, is in your daily interaction with the family. While talking with the various family members, you’ll learn about the foundation of life in Costa Rica. For this reason, homestays are a great option for travelers interested in practicing Spanish or learning about Costa Rican culture.
Volunteering
Volunteering is a fantastic way to experience a new side of Costa Rica. As a volunteer, you’ll have an inside look at some of the most unique (and vulnerable) parts of the country. You’ll also meet interesting people and learn important skills — in fact, these projects are perfect for travelers who want to learn more about an area of interest while traveling in Costa Rica. You can protect sea turtles along the Nicoya Peninsula, or work on an organic farm in the South Pacific. You might teach environmental issues in elementary schools or help reforest rural areas. The following volunteer options are a few ways that you can give back to the people and places of Costa Rica.
Guided Tours
Led by English-speaking naturalist guides, guided tours provide travelers with the sort of hands-on education one demands while exploring new territory. Versed in both the local history and ecology, tour guides can introduce visitors to cloud forests and coffee plantations, nocturnal ecosystems and native rainforests. Fascinating sights, sounds, and even smells will be revealed in new and intriguing ways, encouraging tour takers to investigate further once the outing is over.
Species Exhibits
Costa Rica is home to nearly 5 percent of the world’s total biodiversity. Specimen exhibits aim to preserve and display some of that bounty, and are must-sees for anyone interested in the natural history of the country. The exhibits are as educational and diverse as the creatures on display, with snakes, reptiles, amphibians, butterflies, insects and more exhibited in glass-cased terrariums or open-air domes. These exhibits offer visitors the chance to see species that are rarely seen in the wild, and thus will complete any trip to Costa Rica.
Learn Spanish
Have you ever wanted to study Spanish abroad? If so, this is the perfect opportunity for you. As a Spanish student in Costa Rica, you’ll have access to some of the finest facilities and best teachers in the country. You’ll learn from native speakers and study in small groups or in one-on-one sessions. There are options for every language level, from beginner to more advanced speakers, and courses that range from one week to several weeks. What’s more, you’ll live in some of Costa Rica’s most spectacular destinations.
Surf Lessons
Costa Rica is blessed with two coastlines that receive consistently good swells, waves and breaks – oceanic conditions that are ideal for surfing. Surf schools throughout the country aim to help beginning and intermediate surfers hone their skills through hands-on, interactive instruction. Days begin with stretching along the shore and a pre-surf warm up. Beginners will learn practical surfing skills before entering the water, including safety, etiquette, entering and exiting the surf zone, catching waves, standing up, and finally, surfing itself. Intermediate instruction is focused on rapid improvement via catching and surfing as many waves as possible. Instructors, all of whom are certified lifeguards, are in the water ensuring that students are both having fun and remaining safe.
Marine Wildlife
Ship out to the open ocean for a half-day spent searching for and observing impressive marine mammals, including dolphins, whales, sea turtles and manta rays. You might see a 40-ton humpback whale breaching or spot a pod of bottlenose dolphins leaping alongside your boat. In the water below, keep your eyes focused for rays or sea turtles gliding gracefully onward. Birders will be pleased as well, as a great variety of avian species can be observed along rocky coastal formations. These tours, which depart from places like Manual Antonio, Drake Bay and Uvita, are led by a bilingual guide and occasionally are a part of combination tours that can include snorkeling, hiking, and beach time.
ATV Tours
Every year, travelers to Costa Rica and other naturally beautiful countries – including Peru, Ecuador, and Guatemala – are unknowingly damaging the ecosystems of Central America through a seemingly harmless and undeniably exciting activity: ATV (All-Terrain Vehicle) tours. Travelers may want to consider the impact that these tours have on sensitive ecosystems before hopping onto an ATV.
Paddle Boarding
In the last few years, standup paddleboarding has undergone a surge of popularity worldwide. The sport, which involves paddling atop oversized surfboards, is a fun way to experience the outdoors. During one of these tours, you’ll learn the proper technique for riding a paddleboard—your instructor will give you tips for standing, paddling, and getting back onto the board when you fall in the water. When you’re ready, you’ll head out into the ocean and begin to paddle. If you really get the hang of it, you might even try to ride small waves.
Museum
Although snakes, bats, and giant beetles occupy many of Costa Rica’s museums, one needn’t be afraid – the creatures are set safely behind enclosed glass viewing areas, and many of them are already dead. Such museums, which depict the fascinating existence of these tropical species, will easily provide visitors with a newfound appreciation for the native plants and animals of Costa Rica. Many of the natural museums can be found in Monteverde, while the more cultural exhibits can be encountered in San José. Here, visitors can tour the National Theater, La Plaza de la Democracía, and the Gold Museum.
Biking
The Costa Rican landscape is crisscrossed by trails that run through pastures, jungles and mountains in one of the world’s most spectacularly diverse environments. Not surprisingly, the country is quickly becoming a hot spot for mountain biking. Mountain bike tours offer visitors an exciting way of seeing the country as it whizzes past — some navigate the base of the fuming Arenal Volcano while others plunge into the dense forests of Manuel Antonio, taking riders to some of the finest destinations in the country. Readily available at all skill levels, these tours are often packaged with other action sports, such as rafting or kayaking, and frequently include overnight trips to several destinations.
Cave Exploration
Many of Costa Rica’s caves were formed some 20 to 70 million years ago when much of the country was still under water. Today, several of the caves can be unearthed during exploration tours. On these tours, bilingual guides will lead you underground to discover stalagmites, ancient marine fossils, and subterranean animal species—you’ll hear rivers and waterfalls echoing in the distance and watch as ghost-like limestone formations dance against your flashlight. Originally discovered by aborigines, these caves now offer modern travelers a wonderful way to dig – both literally and figuratively – beneath the surface of Costa Rica.
Horseback Riding
Horseback tours allow travelers to experience several spectacular places within the course of a few hours or a few days. Imagine riding through a misty rainforest before gearing up for a river rafting adventure, or perhaps crossing creeks and streams before soaking away the afternoon in geothermal hot springs. Horseback rides can take you to one place or ten, all the while making the journey one of the most memorable parts of the adventure. Inexperienced riders are welcomed, and tours can be arranged for both private individuals and larger groups. Although horseback riding is possible throughout most of the country, some of the better-known locations include Monteverde, Manuel Antonio, Arenal and Rincón de La Vieja.
Butterfly Gardens
With a warm climate and year-round flowers, Costa Rica is an ideal habitat for butterflies. Approximately 90 percent of the butterfly species in Central America and 18 percent of all the world's species can be found in Costa Rica. Butterfly farms help preserve these beautiful creatures and also educate visitors about their growth cycle, eating habits, and colorful markings. Tours of butterfly farms are a hands-on educational experience that allow visitors to get close to both live butterflies and specimens.
Fresh Water Fishing
Freshwater fishing excursions plumb the depths of Lake Arenal, the banks of the Río Frío, and the estuaries along the Caribbean for a range of impressive native fish. Species that can be hooked include the rainbow bass (known for its fierce nature and tasty white meat), the tarpon (which can weigh 40-150 lbs and grow up to eight feet in length), machacas, tilapia, snook and gar. Local guides well versed in the area’s fishing trends lead the trips, which often include snacks and refreshments for guests. Tours can be arranged as either half day or full day outings.
Nature Walk
Costa Rica is bursting at the seams with nature — however, if you don’t know where to go or what to look for, you might miss the most spectacular sights. Nature walks connect travelers with naturalist guides in some of the country’s best outdoor areas, including Monteverde and Arenal. As you walk along, your guide will point out native plant and animal species and teach you about the ecology of the region. These tours sometimes involve hanging bridges, which provide travelers with a birds-eye view into the forest canopy. Nature walks proceed at relatively slow pace and are good for families or people who have trouble walking long distances.
Turtle Nesting
Every year from April to November thousands of sea turtles come ashore the beaches of Costa Rica to lay their eggs. Both the Caribbean and Pacific coasts are visited by over six species of sea turtles, whose golf ball-sized eggs will incubate beneath the sand for 50-70 days before emerging as hatchlings and beginning their mad scramble towards the sea. Nighttime nesting tours privilege travelers with observing either end of this ancient procession – the laying or hatching – and are sure to provide any tour taker with an unforgettable and unrepeatable experience.
Safari Float
Safari floats offer travelers a leisurely way to enjoy the waterways of Costa Rica. Rafts are manned by a naturalist guide and include all necessary equipment – drift down gentle class 1 sections of the Peñas Blancas and Corobici rivers in north central Costa Rica. These trips allow passengers the unique opportunity to spot a variety of creatures, including monkeys, sloths, crocodiles, iguanas, and over 300 species of tropical birds. They can often be arranged with a combination with other activities as well.
Boat Tours
It’s well known that some of the best places to visit in Costa Rica are the most difficult to get to. Boat tours help visitors access a score of such places by providing easy transportation up rivers, across oceans and through estuaries. During these trips, tour takers may snorkel, swim or sunbathe; they might search for birds or mammals, fish for rainbow bass, or hike along an island’s jungle trails. An ecologically savvy guide, who can help explain the relationships between the varying organisms, often accompanies these tours. Meals are frequently provided, and all guests are equipped with any necessary equipment.
Mangrove Tours
Mangroves exist in estuaries, the confluent places where saltwater comes together with freshwater. The plants are both varied and unique, but can be invariably recognized by their striking root systems, which delve beneath the surface of the water to prop up the plants above. A great variety of animals reside within this habitat, including caimans, snakes, monkeys, iguanas, and several species of birds. Mangrove tours allow travelers to explore these complex waterways from the security of a kayak or covered boat, often with the company of a naturalist guide. These guides both educate passengers on the important biological relationships at work in the mangrove, as well as help spot critters along the way.
