Description
Enjoy a mystical two-night stay at Tortuguero National Park located in the North Caribbean side of Costa Rica. This is one of Costa Rica's most popular ecotourism destinations. Discover its Network of canals, lagoons and dense rainforests. Abundant wildlife inhabits Tortuguero, including 57 species of amphibians, 111 species of reptiles, and 60 species of mammals.
TOUR HIGHLIGHTS
Tortuguero National Park: Tortuguero is the best place in Costa Rica to encounter wildlife; because of its remote location and difficult access this pristine Rainforest remains virtually untouched and it is home to many animals like sloths, monkeys, crocodiles, toucans, trogons, water birds, colourful frogs and butterflies. This National Park is also the prime nesting site for the green and leatherback sea turtles from June to October.
Itinerary
SAN JOSE – TORTUGUERO
Early departure from your hotel in San Jose to Tortuguero in a shared transfer (pick-up around 6:00 am). You will enjoy breakfast on the way and then, continue to the dock to board the boat that will take you to the lodge where you will immerse yourself in a perfectly quiet, laid back and tranquil stay. After lunch at the lodge, meet your guide for an expedition through the Tortuguero Canals, a must activity while you are in Costa Rica. Explore the lagoons and hidden canals; as you go deeper into the forest the canals become smaller and the surrounding wildlife gets closer. Savour dinner at the lodge in the evening.
