What people love about Costa Rica Tours for Couples
- From Arenal to the Caribbean Coast
This was an amazing experience to discover the north and east side of Costa Rica. We really liked the experience in the canals, in a very secluded place as an alternative to Tortuguero. All the itinerary was well planned, well executed with no delays and great service. We loved the people of Costa Rica!
-Everything was thought through. -No pressure to do optional tours -The guide really made this tour really good. And the weather was on our side so beautiful views every stop. -Costa Rica is amazing so if you not sure just book it -will use Tour Radar again. PUDA VIDA -would have liked that if transfers were not included, it would be stated more clearly the only negative
Costa Rica Escape
- Costa Rica Highlights Adventure 8D/7N
Great way to see most of Costa Ricas highlights in a short space of time. Self-guided, so you just have to make sure you are ready at your hotel for pickup on the transfer days. Very well organised transport, always on time and glitch free. In Monteverde the package included the most gorgeous horseback riding scenery I have ever witnessed, and the ziplining is a must do in that region. We used the first free day to also visit the Monteverde national reserve and hike the rainforest. In la fortuna, your visit is short, but included is an all day pass to the Baldi hot spring resort, which again is an extremely high quality experience. On to Tortugero, and you will have 2 guided boat toars and 2-3 walking tours of the rainforest. Lots of travelling in a short space of time, but I can't envisage any other way of seeing so much in such a short span of time, with no problems along the way.
What our customers ask about Romantic Costa Rica Trips & Honeymoon Packages
Which areas in Costa Rica are best suited for a romantic getaway?
You'll find some really special spots in Costa Rica for a romantic trip. The Arenal Volcano area is a favorite - imagine relaxing in your own hot spring pool at Arenal Springs while looking out at the volcano. In Manuel Antonio, you can stay at places like Parador Resort where your room overlooks the Pacific Ocean and you're surrounded by jungle. Up in Monteverde, the cloud forest creates this magical mood that's perfect for couples - try a place like Fonda Vela Hotel where you can cozy up in the mountains. One of our travelers put it well: "The thermal hot springs and volcano views in Arenal created the perfect romantic atmosphere."
What's the best time of year for couples to visit Costa Rica?
The nicest weather is during the dry season from December to April - you'll get plenty of sun for beach days and outdoor activities. If you want the best views of Arenal volcano, plan your trip between December and March. To avoid crowds and save some money, think about visiting Manuel Antonio from May to November. You can do activities in the morning and spend romantic afternoons relaxing. If you're heading to the Caribbean side like Puerto Viejo or Tortuguero, September and October are usually the driest months. Many of our travelers say February is perfect, with temperatures around 75-85°F (24-29°C).
What are the most romantic destinations included in Costa Rica couples tours?
You'll fall in love with places like Tamarindo and Samara Beach, where you can watch beautiful sunsets together. The Arenal area is really special - there's something magical about seeing the volcano while soaking in natural hot springs at places like Arenal Springs Resort. Manuel Antonio is great too because you get both jungle and beach - you can stay at nice hotels like Parador Resort where you're right by the ocean but also see monkeys and sloths in the trees around you.
What romantic activities can couples expect on these tours?
There are so many ways to spend quality time together. You can take a sunset boat ride in Tamarindo, get a couples massage by the hot springs in Arenal, or walk hand in hand through the misty Monteverde Cloud Forest. As one of our travelers said: "The hot springs at Arenal were incredibly romantic, especially at sunset." You'll also find nice restaurants for dinner dates, and plenty of quiet beaches like Samara where you can have some private time together.
What types of accommodations are available for couples in Costa Rica?
You'll find everything from cozy boutique hotels to fancy resorts. At Tabacon Resort in Arenal, you get your own hot spring pools and spa treatments. In Manuel Antonio, places like Shana By The Beach Hotel give you rooms with ocean views that are perfect for couples. One of our travelers mentioned: "The rooms were all nice, even the smallest room we had was more than adequate. Presentation of food was consistently nice and remember pace and food service is a little slower paced."
What's the ideal duration for a couples tour in Costa Rica?
Eight to ten days hits the sweet spot for most couples. This gives you enough time to see the best romantic spots like Arenal, Monteverde, and Manuel Antonio without feeling rushed. Popular trips like the Costa Rica Nature Adventure take 8 days, which lets you see all the highlights while still having free time to spend together.
