Start and end in San Jose, the trip "Discover Costa Rica - With Dominical" is a guided wildlife trip that takes 15 days. You will travel through Arenal Volcano, Dominical, Monteverde and 7 other destinations in Costa Rica. "Discover Costa Rica - With Dominical" is a small group trip which includes accommodation, transport, meals and others.

Costa Rica is renowned for having proportionately more protected land than any other country, making it ripe for wildlife tourism. What is less known is the marvellous, often bizarre, variety of animals from catatonic sloths, screaming howler monkeys, screeching toucans and nesting green turtles. Throw in the Caribbean and Pacific coastlines and it is easy to see why so many return.

This itinerary differs from Discover Costa Rica, spending two nights at Dominical instead of Piedras Blancas. This option is a great alternative as this area has much to offer: beautiful beaches with great sunset views, waterfalls and natural swimming holes, and the chance to explore nearby Marino Ballena National Park.
