Discover the incredible natural beauty and wildlife of Costa Rica on this private adventure combining rainforest scenery, hanging bridges, crocodile encounters, and local culture. Depart from Puerto Caldera and journey through the scenic countryside before arriving at Villa Santa Lucia, where a guided rainforest walk takes you across three hanging bridges surrounded by lush tropical vegetation. Keep watch for colorful birds, monkeys, and other native wildlife while learning about one of Costa Rica's most diverse ecosystems from your expert naturalist guide. As this is a natural environment, wildlife sightings are common but cannot be guaranteed.

After your rainforest adventure, enjoy complimentary fresh tropical fruit and refreshments before continuing to the famous Tarcoles River. Board a shared sightseeing boat and cruise through one of Costa Rica's richest wildlife habitats, home to massive American crocodiles, scarlet macaws, monkeys, iguanas, herons, and many other species. Following your river cruise, stop at the Crocs Skywalk for panoramic views overlooking the Tarcoles River and enjoy time to browse for locally crafted souvenirs or purchase an authentic Costa Rican lunch, including the traditional casado, if you wish. Please note that wildlife sightings during the river cruise are also not guaranteed.

Complete your experience with a guided drive through Puntarenas, the largest city on Costa Rica's Central Pacific coast. Explore the lively Paseo de los Turistas, admire historic landmarks, and soak in the relaxed coastal atmosphere before returning comfortably to Puerto Caldera.
