Package description:
Upon arrival, a representative from Costa Rica Guides and Tropical Expeditions will meet you. After passing through immigration, our representative will be waiting with a sign displaying your last name. The representative can assist you with your luggage once you are outside the airport, as only you will be authorized to handle your own luggage inside the airport.
Afterward, the representative will transfer you in private transportation to your hotel in San José.
On this tour, we'll immerse ourselves in Costa Rica's rich history and culture, experiencing the beauty of its museums and historical sites in San José. Our tour begins with an orientation as we head towards La Sabana Park. Next, we'll walk to the historic National Theater, completed in 1897, a masterpiece of art and architecture. After that, we'll visit one of Costa Rica's many museums.

Continuing the tour, we'll visit La Paz Waterfall Gardens, where we'll have lunch and take a hike. Upon arrival at La Paz, we'll walk along a trail that leads to a spectacular waterfall in the middle of the rainforest.
