Adventure Begins
Your breath-taking adventure begins with a pickup from your hotel and a relaxing private drive through the wonderful Costa Rican countryside in an air-conditioned, recent model deluxe vehicle or mini bus. You will be heading to Alajuela Province and then to the Volcano, about a 90-minute drive from San Jose.
On the way, enjoy the beautiful scenery of the countryside with multiple Dairy Farms, Coffee Plantations, Tropical Flowers Nurseries, Strawberries Plantations, Cheese Factories, picturesque souvenir stores, and small local vendors.
Once at the National Park, the visit to the crater will be in small groups accompanied by a park ranger and for only 30 minutes per group for security reasons.
After the park visit, we will include short stops at different local attractions such as souvenir stores, dairy farms, and small restaurants. A stop at a coffee plantation is included.
