9 Day Costa Rica Itinerary
The ultimate wedding party…
I had decided to forego a wedding ceremony and instead travel with my "wedding party" to Costa Rica to celebrate. Turns out, Costa Rica is an unforgettable paradise. It’s got 5% of the world's total biodiversity, and we definitely saw our share of nature and wildlife on this vacation. My favorite is the sloth sanctuary at Cahuita. This place seems to be run by some of the most dedicated professionals I've ever seen. It's wonderful what they're doing for these creatures. 100% worth it. The baby sloths especially are life-changingly adorable.
Things you must do on your Costa Rica trip…
We took a Zip Line and Balsa River Rafting Tour when we were in Arenal. Both the zip line team and rafting guides were amazing! They were incredibly helpful and funny, and made sure we had a great time. That experience blew us away. You must also not miss out on the waterfall and volcano hikes. This is one thing you must absolutely do in Costa Rica. The stunning views we had from the hanging bridge, as well as other amazing natural beauty fueled us for what turned out to be several long hikes. I can't get over how wonderful this place was.
We got everything we wanted, and more!
Anywhere has everything you need to make your Costa Rica experience unforgettable. Jessica Carvajal was amazing. She was able to customize our experience to exactly what we wanted, and great at troubleshooting, updates, and pricing options with a quick turn around. My wife is extremely thorough and Jessica was right there with her the whole time. There was like, one issue and Anywhere's hardworking staff went above and beyond to make sure we were content. Seriously, our guides and the companies that serviced us specifically made the whole thing extra special.
