- Duration
- 4 Days
- Prices From:
- AU$ 863
MODERATE | TAILOR-MADE: Located on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica, Tortuguero National Park has a wide diversity of plant and animal life, perhaps most famously, it's turtles. The park features eleven different habitats, including rainforest, mangrove forests, swamps, beaches, and lagoons.
This 4-day Costa Rica getaway can be taken as a round trip short escape from San Jose, or as part of a longer Costa Rica vacation, as it focuses on Tortuguero National Park.
Transfer from San Jose, the capital of Costa Rica, to Tortuguero National Park. The journey takes you to banana plantations, and through tropical rainforests rich with colourful flowers. Upon arriving at Tortuguero, visit the Turtle Museum. Of course, the main attraction here is the park itself. The following day, you’ll take a boat tour through the canals, seeing not just the namesake turtles, but the wide variety of animals, birds, flowers, and other plan species that dot the park. Your lodge has private trails for you to explore at your leisure. A butterfly garden, and botanical gardens are both within easy reach.
