🐒 Palo Verde National Park River Safari
Glide Through Costa Rica's Wild Heart
Set out on a peaceful boat safari through the winding waterways of Palo Verde National Park, one of Costa Rica’s most biologically rich wetland ecosystems. This tour is perfect for nature lovers and photographers eager to spot iconic wildlife in their natural element.
As you cruise the Tempisque River, you'll encounter monkeys swinging through the trees, crocodiles basking on the banks, and countless bird species gliding overhead. But the adventure doesn’t stop there: you'll also enjoy a traditional Costa Rican lunch cooked over a wood fire, followed by a hands-on cultural demonstration that brings Guanacastean heritage to life.
