Costa Rica has as many microclimates as it does opportunities for active adventures—and this two-week journey will bring you the best of both. There's a visit to a coffee plantation in the cloudforest, but for a bigger jolt try rappelling down waterfalls or fly across ziplines above the treetops. For a different pace, float through the canals of the Tortuguero National Park and visit turtle nesting grounds if you choose. From the Caribbean beaches to the Pacific, this stunning tour embodies some of the best that Costa Rica has to offer.
