We love to run this Experience since it feels like taking family friends on a Day Trip. The roads and route we choose let us showcase the countryside of Cartago Province, and the families and communities that live around this 2 beautiful volcanoes. The cool climate contrast with the warm and traditional people that inhabits these multicolored farmlands. AS AN EXTRA DESTINATION OF THE TOUR WE CAN: a) visit the "coffee country" of Aquiares Town and farms or b) visit the Basilica Of The Angels, the most important church in downtown Cartago. Other additional stops can be done, but we don´t want to give too many spoilers;)

Inclusions: Air-conditioned vehicle, Parking Fees, Binoculars and fieldguides

Exclusions: National Park Entrance Fee (adults $15; kids $5), ($8-$14pp)

I was whit marcelo and a travel-friend in Osa Peninsula for 4 days. Because of Covid costa Rica had only a few tourists. We could make a individual tour in the Jungle. My fokus was wild, not touristic, authentic, calm places, learn about nature and animals. And marcelo made my treams true! We stayed in la tarde in bungalows in front of the primary rainforest for 2 nights. We made tours at morning, afternoon, sunset and night. I loved the walk in the wild jungle whit unknows paths. Then camping at matapalo in front of the beach. We saw a little bit of lumineszenzia in the sea. Then in the small and not popular reservat ' centro biologica de osa'. In this days we saw many animals and we got interesting facts, also about threes and other plants. We got fhotos made whit our phone and marcelo's monocular. So, thank you very much marcelo!
