About this trip

What you are signing up for

Seven days and six nights in La Fortuna, at the foot of Arenal Volcano, staying in 4–5 star accommodation. A wildlife safari down the Peñas Blancas River and a cacao workshop, a day of ziplining and hanging bridges, white-water rafting on the Balsa River, and a full wellness day in the thermal river at Tabacón — with one day kept completely free to rest.

Central America · Rainforest, volcanoes and two coastlines in one small country.

Day by day

Itinerary

Day 1

Welcome to Costa Rica

Arrive in La Fortuna and check in, with welcome refreshments. Meet the group at the retreat orientation, then sit down together for the welcome dinner.

Day 2

Wildlife safari and chocolate

A guided wildlife safari float down the Peñas Blancas River, looking for monkeys, sloths and tropical birds. After a traditional Costa Rican lunch, a hands-on cacao and chocolate-making experience.

Day 3

Adrenaline and adventure

Ziplining over the rainforest canopy in the morning. After lunch, a guided walk across the Místico hanging bridges.

Day 4

Rest and rejuvenate

A completely free day with nothing scheduled. Your day, your pace: the pool, a spa treatment, a book in the garden, or nothing at all.

Day 5

River adventure

Guided white-water rafting on the Balsa River with experienced guides and safety equipment, then lunch and a free afternoon. Rafting depends on river conditions on the day.

Day 6

Tabacón thermal wellness day

A day pass to Tabacón Thermal Resort & Spa: the natural thermal river and rainforest pools, lunch, and an afternoon for spa treatments and rest. In the evening, the farewell dinner and celebration.

Day 7

Farewell, Costa Rica

Optional sunrise stretching or meditation and a farewell breakfast, then check-out and your scheduled airport transfer.
