(One day)

Pick-up time: 8:00 a.m. aprox.
Duration: 8 hours

The tour will take you along the Pan-American heading towards the town of Alajuela and pass by the way to the Agriculture Monument , Juan Santamaria statue and the famous Mangos’ Park. During the ascent to the volcano we stop at the coffee fields for an explanation, then we will pass through fern farm, strawberry plantations and flowers farms.

On the top of the volcano we will spend enough time to observe the principal crater with its sulphur fumaroles.

As we continue towards the Caribbean area, we will stop to discover La Paz Waterfall Gardens , a Nature Park where we will walk on the truly spectacular trails that will lead us to Magia Blanca Falls (the largest and the most spectacular of the falls in the area). At the Park you will also witness the largest enclosed butterfly observatory in the country and a amazing hummingbird gallery with a beautiful collection of tropical jewels. A buffet lunch will be ready for us after the tour.

Now we are ready to go back to San José
