Irazu Volcano National Park, Costa Rica Visit the National Park where we can check and even be inside one of the 3 craters (inactive) of the Highest Volcano in the country. We will also experience the highland ecosystem of Paramo; a tropical dwarf forest.
Please pay your entrance fee on the day of the tour by cash. 60 minutes
Turrialba Volcano, Cartago, Costa Rica We will visit the closest town to Turrialba Volcano,"La Central Town" where the sights are impressive due to the volcanic activity of recent years which has created a barren landscape.
The town is really interesting because it's kind of abandoned and has a spooky feel to it, however, the surroundings are full of farms with picturesque landscapes and views. With some luck, we will be able to see potatoes, carrots, beets, and other vegetables being harvested by locals and learn about costarican agriculture.
30 minutes
Guayabo National Monument, Turrialba, Costa Rica We will visit the most important archaeological landmark in the country. This prehispanic settlement was recognized as a Civil engineering World Heritage site and is located in a protected area surrounded by lush rainforest. You'll learn about costarican indigenous cultures and with luck, we'll see some interesting fauna as well.

Our guide Rico took us to enjoy, learn and understand the amazing ecosystems that we visited. He was extremely knowledgeable about the fauna and flora we where seen. Strongly recommend their services.

We had an amazing time on the “Between Cartago Volcanoes” tour! Our tour guide Rigo was so knowledgeable— he took the time to point out many unique plants and ecological features, particularly birds and insects after we shared that our group was interested in those areas. This day trip was a great way to see the country side and the volcanos, and the archeological site was a bonus for our group and very interesting. I also loved the small tour size; there were three of us in my group and we had our own private tour! We really enjoyed our time and would book with this group again!

Todos los lugares que visitamos fueron espectaculares, tuvimos la fortuna de que se despejaron las nubes y tuvimos una vista increíble de los volcanes. Rigo fue sensacional, conoce muchísimo de la flora y fauna, todo lo que compartió fue muy interesante. Este tour es buenísimo si tienes poco tiempo y quieres conocer más de Costa Rica, también si viajas solo, vale mucho la pena.
