Aug 1 -- Arrive and drive to Casa Turire (Standard)
 |
| Welcome Randy to Costa Rica! |
Today you and the five other adults will be met outside the San Jose (SJO) by your private guide and driver. You will travel to the area of Turrialba located around 2 hours from the capital city. Your final destination will be the Casa Turire Hotel. This is one of our favorite hotels in Costa Rica. It is a 16 bedroom old plantation mansion that sits on a lake. It hotel has excellent views of the smoking Turrialba Volcano and the food is some of the best you will find anywhere.
Here you can get a good nights rest after a full day of traveling and enjoy the hotel grounds. (Meals: None)
Aug 2 -- Raft Pacuare (Casa Turire Standard)
Today we will depart from the hotel with your private guide and driver and make our way to the Pacuare River. This is listed by NatGeo as one of the top 5 most scenic rivers on the planet. We operate our own rafting so your trip is completely private from start to finish. Your guide will prepare for you a river lunch and get you through all the class IV rapids keeping you soaked from start to finish.

| Pacuare River |
The river is filled with pristine rainforest from start to finish. The canyon walls rise 300ft on each side with over 5 different waterfalls you float by that measure over 150ft each. If you up for it we can also stop at our Lodge the Pacuare Ecolodge where we have one of Costa Rica's best Tarzan Swings and everyone can take a swing on it. Its not a release you are actually hooked up in a climbing harnass and swing around 400ft. Its quite the adventure!
In the afternoon we will head back to the Casa Turire Hotel where you can relax and enjoy the pool and hot-tub. In the evening we can take you out to visit our friends at a local village and give you a taste of home-cooking. (Meals: Breakfas, Lunch, & Dinner (Dinner is included if you decide to visit the village))
Aug 3 -- Travel to Arenal Volcano (Nayara (Suite))
Today we will make our way to the Nayara Hotel and Gardens. This hotel is listed year after year as one of the top not only in Central America but on the planet. Its still a small hotel with epic views of the Arenal Volcano and Gardens and rooms unmatched anywhere in Costa Rica. During the morning after breakfast we will travel to the hotel in around a 4 hour drive making some stops along they way and arrive shortly after lunch to check into the Nayara Hotel.
This place is really a no brainer and along with Casa Turire I feel both these options are perfect for a group of six adults like you will be traveling with. (Meals: Breakfast)

Aug 4 -- Zipline & La Fortuna Falls (Nayara Suite)

After the zipline we will take you to one of our favorite spots for lunch. After lunch we will hike to one of the most picturesque waterfalls found anywhere in Costa Rica at the La Fortuna Falls.
