Costa Rica Family Holiday

This tailor-made Costa Rica family holiday offers an exciting opportunity to discover Costa Rica's most beautiful places, with a great mix of adventure with a bit of downtime.

Begin with a couple of nights in or near San Jose including getting up close to a volcano and discovering some of Costa Rica's exotic wildlife at first hand.

From here, journey across to the Caribbean Side to the "Turtle Catcher" National Park - Tortuguero, for an adventurous time in search of crocodiles, monkeys, sloths and more amongst the waterways of Tortuguero.

Then it's another volcano - mighty Arenal - with more wildlife and plenty of adventurous activities on offer such as zip-lining, river trips or a hot-springs water park.

From here, head into the mists of the Cloud Forest, with the chance to spot colourful birdlife and more animals.

Finish your Costa Rica family holiday in Tamarindo or one of the other Northern Pacific coast beaches in Costa Rica - the choice is yours.

As with all of our Costa Rica holidays, this itinerary is completely tailor-made and can be amended to suit your interests, time and budget.

Is this a Private Tour or a Group Tour?

All of our tours are tailor made itineraries, customised for you - we can amend things to entirely suit you.

In Costa Rica transfers between destinations are mostly done by shared shuttle and most of the excursions are on a shared basis in a small group.

We can include private transfers and tours if you prefer - just let us know. Generally this will add quite significantly to the cost.

What are the departure dates?

Let us know your preferred dates of travel and we will find the best and most suitable flights to fit your itinerary.

As this is a private tour, there are no set departure dates.

Which Airlines do you use?

We work with all the major airlines flying to this part of the world.

Typically for Costa Rica, British Airways, KLM, American Airlines, United or Delta are among the airlines we use.

However, just let us know your preferred airline if you have one. We can organise flights from any regional destination in the UK.

British Airways fly directly to San Jose from the UK.

Which Hotels do you use?

We're careful with our choice of hotels, but we're guided by our customers also. If you have some preferred hotels, just let us know.

We specialise in boutique hotels and so we will often suggest some of our favourite smaller hotels where we think these will be suitable.
