With epic wildlife and wild rides, Costa Rica is a firm favourite for adventurous families. Explore it with your loved ones on this activity-packed trip, which covers some of the most astonishing landscapes in Central America over two weeks. We look for monkeys and caiman in Tortuguero, explore the Tirimbina rainforest after dark, delve into the ancient world of chocolate, zip-line through the treetops of Selvatura Park and hop on a catamaran to scan the seas for dolphins. There’s downtime too, with free time in the surfer hotspot of Tamarindo and a soak or two in mineral-rich hot springs.

Customer Reviews
A real family adventure
We travelled to Costa Rica as a family of four (children aged 9 and 12) and wow what a trip. Firstly, the group were brilliant company and all of the children very quickly became best friends. Secondly, David our guide knew nature like no-one else i've ever met, helping us see sloths, crocodiles, monkeys, Racoons, a humpback whale and many many bird species. Thirdly, the activites were perfectly pitched for the families, zip-lining, river tubing, horse riding and a boat trip to name a few of the highlights. And finally it was a faultless trip, everything ran on time, ran perfectly and was 100% hassle-free. We loved it, what a country!
