Experience Both Sides of Paradise

Day 1: Take a private transfer from the Liberia international airport to La Fortuna. Enjoy views of the active Arenal volcano from your hotel, the Arenal Nayara, which offers fabulous accommodations. Relax in the hotel pool or Jacuzzis as you take in the sounds of the jungle on your first evening in Costa Rica.

Day 2-3: The Arenal area reads like a choose your own adventure book, with never ending options for fun and exploration. Discover the active volcano close up as a naturalist guide leads you over cooled lava fields and through tropical forests as you learn about local history and wildlife before soaking away the evening in the Tabacon hot springs. The next day, let a horse do the walking as you explore dense trails to majestic waterfalls in the jungle for a refreshing dip and full lunch.

Day 4: Just when you were getting used to "roughing it" in the rain forest, it's off to the beach for some relaxation! Wave goodbye to La Fortuna from the comfort of your private shuttle as you cruise around the Arenal Lake to the Pacific coast. Your destination? The JW Marriott Guanacaste. This brand new resort is the ultimate in ocean front luxury with several gourmet restaurants, a giant pool and beautiful architecture that will set the mood for the tranquilo portion of your vacation.

Day 5-7: All on board for your boat tour of the Palo Verde Wildlife Reserve, the largest wetland area in Costa Rica. Great for bird watchers, you're likely to see Blue Herons, White Ibis, crocodiles and more. The rest of your time spent in Guanacaste is yours to enjoy the surrounding beaches and nature. Relax and soak up the sun by the ocean view pool before taking in one of the best sunsets on the Pacific.

Day 8: This is your last morning in Costa Rica. Take a private shuttle through the Costa Rican countryside to the Liberia international airport for your flight home.
