Book Now and pay in cash at your arrive.

Embark on the Tortuguero Ultimate Adventure, a carefully crafted package that takes you deep into the heart of Costa Rica’s most biodiverse national park. Whether you choose to explore in one exhilarating day or two relaxed days, this experience is designed to offer the perfect blend of adventure, nature, and discovery. From peaceful canoe rides to thrilling hikes and enchanting night walks, each activity offers a unique way to experience Tortuguero’s wonders—by land, water, and under the stars.

Day 1: Canoe Tour & Jaguar Trail Walk (Mandatory Combo)

Your journey begins with the Canoe Tour, where you’ll glide through Tortuguero’s winding canals. The calm waters give you a front-row seat to the park’s rich wildlife. Keep your eyes peeled for herons hunting along the banks, caimans sunbathing in the shallows, and playful otters darting through the water. The gentle canoe ride sets the perfect pace for appreciating the peaceful jungle surroundings.

Next, you’ll embark on the Jaguar Trail Walk, a guided hike through Tortuguero’s dense rainforest. Named after the elusive jaguar that roams these jungles, this trail takes you deep into the forest, where monkeys swing overhead and colorful frogs cling to the underbrush. Your guide will help you spot hidden wildlife, share fascinating insights about the ecosystem, and guide you through this pristine tropical habitat.

Tip: Since the national park entry ticket is valid for the day, we highly recommend pairing these two activities together, ensuring you make the most of your entry pass.

Day 2: Tortuguero Hill Tour & Night Walk

On your second day, start with the Tortuguero Hill Tour, an invigorating hike to the highest point in the park. The ascent through the lush rainforest offers incredible views of Tortuguero’s canals, mangroves, and the distant Caribbean Sea. Once at the top, you’ll be treated to breathtaking 360-degree vistas—a perfect moment for photos and reflection. This trek is a rewarding way to connect with the park’s natural beauty, and your guide will share insights about its volcanic history and diverse ecosystems.

Finally, as night falls, the Night Walk offers a completely different experience. The rainforest comes alive with nocturnal creatures, and the darkness holds the promise of new discoveries. Your guide will lead you on a path illuminated by your flashlight, revealing the glowing eyes of tree frogs, camouflaged insects, and the occasional owl perched in the trees. The sounds of crickets, rustling leaves, and distant howler monkeys add to the enchantment of the jungle at night.

Tip: The hill tour and night walk are best experienced separately from the canoe and trail hike, as they offer a peaceful, reflective contrast to the more active daytime activities.
