I cannot praise our tour leader and my experience of visiting Costa Rica highly enough. The care and attention provided was excellent. The wildlife aspects of the itinerary exceeded expectations. The pace of the trip ensured there was a good balance between activities and relaxation making it well-balanced, a ‘holiday’ as well as a learning opportunity.

The trip was amazing - Best holiday ever. Our guide, Diego, went above and beyond to make sure that we had a fabulous holiday - keeping four teens from 14 to 20 entertained on a holiday isn't always easy but we all loved it.

The Most Incredible Adventure Ever

Two weeks in Costa Rica getting to explore the country's most beautiful and diverse sites was one of the most incredible adventures I have been on. The fact that all places are so unique and diverse from one another and getting to see incredible wildlife throughout the trip was fantastic.

Great all around trip. The guide (Jeff) was organized, attentive and fun to be around. Briefings each day were informative and useful. The food was excellent, camp sites were good. The rafting was very exhilarating. The equipment was in good condition and they were prepared for mishaps. We had bike chain break but they had spare bike readily available. You could push yourself as hard or as easy as you felt comfortable.

Our guide Oscar was brilliant. We all had such a wonderful family-focused wildlife adventure. The trip was pretty pacey and tiring but also great to pack so many highlights into a fortnight. Also, recommend going in low season (August) as although it is rainy season, we were lucky to see green turtles nesting on one coast and baby humpback whales on the other.

Oh my gosh! I had the absolute best time in Costa Rica. Our guide Juan Carlos had ALL the knowledge. We asked him everything, history, culture, plants, animals, birds, trees, weather and he had all the answers. My favorite thing was his sense of humor. He always made us laugh and feel welcome. The drivers were amazing too! Ronny was able to spot all the wildlife without any binoculars. Christian was super friendly and engaging as well. My favorite was watching the Green Sea turtles nesting. Such a magical experience. The whale watching was incredible. Whitewater rafting was a blast and lunch was really delicious on the shore. So many amazing memories and such warm and wonderful people. I highly recommend this trip to anyone and demand JC as your guide. Just absolutely the best.

Planning tips for solo travelers to Costa Rica

Safest destinations in Costa Rica for single travelers

Costa Rica offers a remarkably safe and welcoming playground for solo adventurers—women, LGBTQ+ travelers, and members of marginalized communities alike. San José’s vibrant Escazú district boasts well-lit streets, bilingual signage, and upscale eateries, helping first-time visitors navigate with confidence. In Arenal (La Fortuna), the warm “Tico” hospitality shines: English-speaking guides lead volcano hikes and hot-spring soaks, while local homestays ensure you’re never far from friendly faces. On the Pacific coast, Manuel Antonio’s compact town center and beachfront paths are patrolled regularly, and the national park’s well-marked trails minimize solo-trek risks. Head to Nosara on the Nicoya Peninsula for a laid-back surf scene where expat cafés and yoga studios foster inclusive vibes—perfect for finding new travel buddies.

Cost of traveling to Costa Rica alone

Costa Rica can be surprisingly affordable even for single travelers. Budget travelers spend around USD 54/day, while mid-range is about USD 137/day. Bookmundi’s Costa Rica solo tours start at USD 85 per person per day, covering accommodation, transport, select meals, guided activities and 24/7 support. Over 7–10 days, expect USD 595–850 on a budget plan, or USD 959–1,370 for mid-range. Want your own room? A single-supplement fee applies (varies by tour).
