The one that has you utterly immersed in the land of coffee and cloud forests

Costa Rica is a haven for discovery, so get ready to go in-depth on this 14 day trip. This tour is the perfect way to travel across amazing Costa Rica, from jungles & rainforests, to volcanoes, beaches, cool coffee plantations & even cooler locals.

Travel is best shared. This is a small group adventure of 12-30 people, aged between 18-35 exclusively, giving you the perfect balance of new friends to travel with and access to even more authentic experiences.

WHAT YOU GET

13 nights accommodation

10 nights in Hotel, 3 nights in Contiki Special Stay

We always provide comfortable accommodation in a relaxed atmosphere - think comfy hotels, beach resorts and rainforest lodges for you and your new squad to relax and socialise.

23 included Meals

7 Dinner, 13 Breakfast, 3 Lunch

You can expect to refuel with hearty breakfasts, luscious lunches and delicious dinners from us but we'll also give you the opportunity to sample some of the best local cuisine. We'll get 23 of your meals, you get the rest. You'll taste it all - from simple street eats to gourmet fare.

Team

Expert Trip Manager, Driver and Local Guides

A highly trained Trip Manager who brings your adventure to life. An expert driver who knows foreign roads better than Google Maps. Local Guides who make tourist traps a thing of the past. This is your team. Smart, friendly, fun, and integral to everything we do.

Transport

All transport included during the trip

Getting around Latin America is half the fun, and all transport is included for the duration of your trip. Private, air conditioned mini coaches allow you soak up all that scenery in style, but it's our unique, local forms of transport that make the journey all part of the adventure.

Your group

Travel with other 18-35 year olds from around the world

Our trips are exclusively 18-35. This means you'll be travelling with people just like you, from all over the world- laughter and friendships always guaranteed.

Experiences

9 included, 8 optional that you can add

Apart from transport, accommodation and meals along the way, we provide sightseeing tours of all major areas as well as a ridiculous amount of activities. We'll take you on a locally guided Tirimbina chocolate tour, show you the incredible Arenal volcano and then teach you mill sugarcane and harvest coffee. And that's just the start of it.

Better to travel on your own instead of with Contiki

Don’t bother with contiki

Amazing Trip - So Different From Contiki in Europe!

Thought the tour seemed a bit pricey up front, but when I look to the accommodations that we had included, the different types of transport (by boat for the first few days), I completely understand and don't think I could have done the accommodation piece any better or cheaper myself. Great tour - Contiki in Costa Rica - highly recommended!

Amazing Trip!

What an incredible trip! Gustavo was an amazing trip leader. He was organised, knowledgable, fun and always a step ahead of everyone. The itinerary is action packed and really allows you to to see the true Costa Rica and you have lots of fun along the way. You get enough breaks along the way and you're guaranteed to see lot of jungles, mountains, monkeys and plants. If you're on the border line of booking, just do it! You won't regret it! It's the best Contiki trip that I've been on in the last few years!

Costa Rica Unplugged

Tour was great and gave an excellent overview of the country. The included activities were great. There was a little too much free time since several add-ons were cancelled in the off season so a shortened stay in some places would have been nicer. Otherwise great.

Puravida!

Really great tour however some extras such as cultural tours could have been included rather than being extra! Also please give your tour guide a card machine so we don’t get charged over £10 for withdrawing money to pay for add ons!!

Good value for the meals, accommodations and activities. In order to fully enjoy the experience, you had to budget extra for the add-on activities and meals.

Costa Rica Unplugged

I’ve done a few trips in Europe but this was my first Contiki outside the region and I have to say that it was probably my favourite! The country is wonderfully diverse which made the trip excellent. I had a great group and fabulous trip manager and driver. The optionals were super. And we spotted so much wildlife! The only down point is that this trip also has two shorter trips which run simultaneously and so there is an awkward couple of days where the old and new groups overlap.
