After being fast-tracked through security, your adventure begins with a 30-hour flight from the UK to Managua in Nicaragua (including a stop in a US city). Make sure you've downloaded lots of music and have a good book to hand ready for your journey.
On arrival into Managua Airport, you'll be met by our driver who will transfer you to your hotel (approximately one hour's drive) where you'll have time to relax and freshen up after your long flight. Sit by the pool, catch some sun on the open patio and, if you have the energy, stroll into Granada city and explore its historic colonial centre.
Get up bright and early and enjoy a fresh, organic breakfast before being transported to the airport for your direct one-hour flight to San Jose, Costa Rica. Upon arrival, you will be met at the airport and transferred to Bajos del Toro (driving time approximately one-and-a-half hours). Spend the afternoon relaxing in the simple elegance of your lodge and enjoy stunning views over the cloud forests of Costa Rica's central volcanic range. In the evening, enjoy a fresh, flavourful dinner and get a good night's sleep ready for an exciting day of exploring tomorrow.
Waterfalls are the main attraction on today's guided trek. Walk through the dense jungle along paths tracing a pristine creek and stop to marvel at the towering waterfalls. Learn about the cloud forest eco-system and the incredible number of plant and animal species that reside here. Alternatively, we can arrange a guided cultural tour of Los Bajos del Toro Amarillo and visit a local orchid enthusiast whose collection features more than 400 species. Afterwards, stroll through the local town and stop at Dona Olga's Pulperia where you can buy fresh tortillas and pastries.
After breakfast, you will be transferred to San Jose airport to board your short one-hour domestic flight to Puerto Jimenez. Upon arrival, you will be picked up and taken on a 25-minute boat transfer to your lodge where you will be staying for the next three nights.
Spend the afternoon relaxing and enjoying spectacular views over the ocean and surrounding tropical rainforest and make sure to catch a dreamy evening sunset before going to bed.
Today, you will board a boat back to Golfito and be transferred back to Manuel Antonio (approximately 2.4 hour drive). Your luxury hotel, located within walking distance of Manuel Antonio National Park, is the perfect base to explore the park's 680 hectares with hiking trails from the coast up into the mountains. Spend the afternoon settling into your new home for the next two nights.
