Can you stay on to extend the places to see and travel on to Panama

We do not offer extensions into Panama, however you are welcome to make these arrangements independently. We offer beach extensions within Costa Rica. Would this be something of interest to you?

is there any chance of joining the August trip? I have a credit that will expire on 9/9/25 for the sum of $600 or is there a possiibiity of extending the time I can use my credit?

Did you want a single room for the 13th September departure?

Does the price quoted on your website include Flights from UK?

Yes it does, for the 13th JUL you are looking at £5579 - currently discounted!

Would hiking sticks be useful in Turrialba on the Coastal Secrets trip?

Hiking sticks are not mandatory, but I do find them handy. If you find walks much easier with them, I definitely suggest bringing them (if you are bringing check-in luggage). It is common to encounter quite a bit of rain in Costa Rica in certain regions, so the paths can get slippery/muddy.

Are flights included?

We have a flight inclusive package, starting at £4899 - depending on availability and the airport you would like to fly from. Please note we can only organize flights from the UK.

Lovely vitas and fabulous guide Edudardo Lopez, but tour descriptors sometimes lacking in detail and level of strenuous activities was minimized. One accommodation was impossible to endure in Cahuita do to level of mildew and mould in rooms. Had to go to a different accommodation for those three nights -for 2 couples - at own cost ($400 US per couple). We would not unconditionally recommend Exodus Tours to anyone in future. If you need more details contact us in person via email. d.w.steele@bell.net Our Tour guide was instrumental in helping to find last minute accommodation for the 2 couples. His efforts were exemplary!Show more

Reply from: Exodus Adventure Travels
We would like to thank David for his review, and hope he enjoyed his time in Costa Rica overall, though we are sorry to read that he was disappointed with some aspects of the tour. We find that our clients are generally happy with the level of information provided in the trip notes, but should a customer wish to find out more, they are always welcome to request a call with one of our trip experts who have done the tour. We also have not received feedback in the past to indicate that the activities on this trip are more strenuous than we indicate on our trip notes, though we will continue to monitor the comments we get and will make changes to our tour literature if other customers express the same concerns as David. We were very sorry to read David’s comments regarding the accommodation we use in Cahuita. This is one of the most humid areas we visit on the tour, but we would always want to provide our customers with clean accommodation, and we have asked David’s tour leader, Eduardo, to give his opinion about the rooms at this property. Eduardo examined David’s room at the time, and did not observe any mould or mildew, and, having investigated the feedback we received from other members of David’s group, we would note that other Exodus clients remarked positively about the cleanliness of their rooms. We are, however, very sorry that this does not reflect David’s experience, and regret that he consequently chose to spend his time in Cahuita at an alternative property. -Exodus Travels

A very well organised trip with an excellent, varied itinerary. I was lucky to be in a really friendly group, very important as one of only two people travelling alone. Our guide was very professional, efficient and knowledgeable. The Caribbean part of the trip was somewhat spoiled by the very outdated accommodation but the rest of the hotels were very good and in beautiful locations. The wildlife viewing was at times spectacular, in particular the surfing dolphins and flying stingrays. Some of the travelling involved very long days on the coach so on any future trip I would try to concentrate on a smaller area.Show more

- Exodus Adventure TravelsOperator•Written April 2026
  With an itinerary like this, which includes rainforest, dry forest and both the Caribbean and Pacific coasts, rain in Costa Rica is quite common. It's what makes the landscapes so lush and green.
  
  That said, February through early April tends to be the best balance overall. The Pacific side (including the Osa Peninsula) is at its driest, the Central Valley and volcano areas are generally clear, and while the Caribbean side can still see showers, it's tropical.
  
  To share my own experience: I travelled in January, and on the rainforest side it rained for a few days — which is pretty unavoidable in these regions. Once we moved over to the Pacific coast, it was sunny with no rain at all.
  It really highlighted how dramatically weather can change depending on where you are in the country.
  
  If you're comfortable with some rain in exchange for incredible wildlife, fewer crowds, and vibrant scenery, Costa Rica delivers year‐round; but for the lowest chance of disruption across this full route, late February to March is a great window.
  
  Our tours tend to sell out early especially between Jan to Mar so it is advisable to book early.
  
  We don't currently have any promotions on our 2027 tours, but dates in 2026 up to September are on offer right now.
