AUTHENTIC
ADVENTURES YOU
CAN HAVE IN 2020
The wetlands, rivers and
lagoons of Tortuguero National
Park, for example, will put you
nose-to-snout with three-toed
sloths, caiman, spider and
howler monkeys. A village tour
gives you the chance to meet
Tortuguero’s locals, fierce
guardians of their verdant home.
Next, visit the landscapes of
Arenal Volcano National Park,
where thermal pools are fed by
waterfalls and wildlife frolics
among the emerald slopes. Pair
nature with a shot of adrenaline,
by white-water rafting, mountain
biking or hiking.
The tranquil Nicoya Peninsula
is the ideal antidote to high-
octane adventure, where you can
tap into the secrets of the
remarkably long-living locals and
relax on palm-pocked beaches
licked by iridescent coral reefs.
