Description
Discover Costa Rica’s abundant wildlife
Following pick-up at your resort, you’ll arrive at Rincon de la Vieja National Park for a tour led by a knowledgeable bilingual guide. Take a hike along this 55-square-mile piece of rainforest with more than 300 bird species that call the park home.
Be on the lookout for colorful birds like curassows, eagles and the emerald toucan. The park is also home to cougars, jaguars, monkeys, kinkajous and many more wildlife species, which you may spot — if you’re lucky! — during your visit.
View volcanic activity and enjoy lunch
During your tour of the Rincon de la Vieja National Park, your guide will point out fascinating views created by the volcano, such as fumaroles — openings in the ground where volcanic fumes escape — and mud pits bubbling with the same vapors. You’ll also have time for a complete lunch that includes soft drinks and freshly brewed coffee.
Learn about the history of this active volcano
Your excursion takes place around the base of Rincon de la Vieja volcano, one of six active volcanoes in Costa Rica. Learn from your tour guide about the volcano’s name — Spanish for ‘old woman's corner’ — as local legend has it that a young girl lost her love to the volcano and chose to remain alone on the hills for the rest of her life.
Following your full-day visit to this magical area, the hiking trail loops back to base camp, where air-conditioned transportation awaits to take you back to your resort.
