    Asked on May 4th, 2026

    How do you create customized package

    Tour Details
    • Central American ToursOperatorWritten May 2026

      We would be happy to assist you with a customized itinerary based on your clients' preferences. We can offer an itinerary including Arenal and Guanacaste, featuring activities such as the Hanging Bridges at Mistico Park, ziplining with Sky Adventures, a sloth tour, a coffee tour, and the Río Celeste tour. In Guanacaste, we can include a sunset catamaran tour; however, we do not offer the Las Baulas National Park tour.

    Alyssa

    Asked on February 19th, 2026

    Would it be possible for me to get a shuttle to San Jose instead of Liberia? I am looking at March 4-11. I arrive late night on the 4th and would depart March 11th from San Jose at 7:35 AM

    Flights / Transfers
    • Central American ToursOperatorWritten February 2026

      Yes, we can certainly arrange a shuttle from Guanacaste to San José for an additional cost. The price will depend on whether the drop-off is at a hotel or directly at San José Airport as well as the number of passengers. Please note that our shared shuttles operate on specific morning schedules. Based on the flight details you sent (departure at 7:35 a.m.), we would offer a private transfer because the departure from Guanacaste would have to be around 10:00 p.m. the night before. The drive from Guanacaste to San José takes approximately 4–5 hours. For this reason, we would recommend adding one night in San José to make your departure more comfortable.
