Ultimate Wildlife Safari

Costa Rica

Costa Rica is synonymous with rainforests and tropical beauty, and on this safari we take you to the renowned ‘land of the turtles’ Tortuguero National Park, whose canals, rivers, beaches and lakes are a working laboratory of rain forest, freshwater, and marine biology. Experience Corcovado National Park with your expert guide for frequent sightings of monkeys, coatimundis, squirrels, spiders, macaws, bats, leaf-cutting ants, and many other animal species. Lucky visitors may even spot anteaters, tapirs, or elusive wildcats.
