4
Venture to Costa Rica’s breathtaking Osa Peninsula on this four-day self-guided trip, perfect for both adventurous young adults and seniors seeking nature’s wonders. Begin your journey with a convenient shuttle transfer from San Jose, Jaco Beach, Manuel Antonio Beach, or Dominical Beach, heading to the riverside town of Sierpe. From there, a scenic boat ride delivers you to your hotel in the lush environs of Drake Bay.
A highlight of this tour package is a full exploration of Corcovado National Park, renowned as the crown jewel of the Osa Peninsula.

Wildlife enthusiasts and birdwatchers alike will be in paradise as they trek through dense rainforest and spot rare species.
Your adventure continues with a boat tour to Cano Island, a protected natural reserve steeped in history. Once a pre-Columbian burial site, the island now entices travelers with its vibrant underwater world, making it a top destination for snorkeling and marine wildlife encounters. Dive into crystal-clear waters to observe colorful fish and perhaps even rays or sea turtles.
On your final day, relax as your return shuttle whisks you back to your starting location—San Jose, Jaco Beach, Manuel Antonio Beach, or Dominical Beach—ensuring a seamless travel experience.
The unique selling point of this tour lies in its immersion in some of the richest biodiversity in Costa Rica, offering both land and marine adventures in a compact, manageable itinerary. This trip is ideal for travelers who want to combine effortless logistics, wildlife encounters, and gentle physical activity on Costa Rica’s stunning South Pacific coast.
