TRANSPORTATION

Transportation cost varies depending on the site of the activity. The cost is generally around 20US per person one way based on four people sharing. If less than four people, there will be an additional fee for transportation as the cost is divided by the number of people participating. 

RESERVATIONS & PAYMENTS

All tours can be arranged once on-site. There is no commitment needed in advance except for the three-day tour into Corcovado Park. Payment for the tours is done at the beginning of your stay in USD cash so please bring sufficient funds. Tours are non-refundable unless cancelled by the provider due to weather. Note that the price is subject to change and that some tours may not be available if we do not have the minimum number of people required. That being said, in most cases, we can organize any tours only that the price of the tour and the transportation would likely be more than what is listed above. 

When you book your trip with us, let us know which tours interest you so that we can start preparing for your stay! 

ON-SITE...
 
Many other activities are available on-site, such as yoga and morning discovery walks, all of which are included in your package. Remember that you can always explore the area in smaller groups, as some trails are easy to follow. However, please be aware of your surroundings at all times and always remember to look down before you look up.... you might be standing on the trail of leaf-cutter ants!
