Arrive into Costa Rica in time for an evening welcome meeting.    

Day 2 San José    
After breakfast, take a short drive to La Paz Waterfall Gardens located to walk along a trail within the rainforest to a great viewpoint from which to watch the cascading falls. This afternoon is free to relax and enjoy the hotel swimming pool, or explore San Jose at your own pace.  

Day 3 San José to Tortuguero NP  
Leave San José behind to travel to the north-east of Costa Rica to Tortuguero National Park in the Caribbean Lowlands. Tortuguero is most famous as a nesting site for the endangered Green turtle, which can be seen arriving onto the beach to lay eggs from late July to October, then during November to January baby turtles start to hatch and make their way towards the ocean.    

Day 4 Tortuguero NP
