Itinerary
Day 1: Arrival and Spend the Night in San Jose & Double-Decker VIP City Bus
Meet your bilingual driver at Juan Santamaria Airport (SJO) near San Jose and jump in a private van that will whisk you away on a 30 to 45-minute ride through the central valley to your hotel in San Jose.
Check in your hotel and relax!
Experience the magical sights and sound of San Jose in comfort and safety aboard a double-decker bus and inspire yourself from Costa Rican folk music traditions and performing artists.
Overnight: San Jose
Meals: Dinner or Lunch
Day 2: Volcanoes, Waterfalls & Hot Springs
Ascend to Poas Volcano, to the rim of its main water-vapor sulfuric-gas pluming crater, traversing its widest dormant crater feathered with wiry, wind-swept trees, cloud forest, stunted forest and barren scrub lands.
Hidden in the rolling clouds of the cloud forest and the mist of the rain forest, five picturesque waterfalls cascade over the course of La Paz River trimmed with a one-third of a mile hiking trail along gorges and the bottom of a canyon.
At night, relax your body in hot spring pools at your hotel.

Day 3: Hanging Bridges & Zip Line & Watch the Sunset in Manuel Antonio
The anticipation builds as you ascend more than 4,000 feet above Arenal in Sky Adventure's gondolas. Below you, Lake Arenal spreads out over the horizon while Arenal volcano looms above. From the observation platform at the top, you'll have incredible views of Arenal's peak and your first look at SkyTrek's zip lines.
Experience life in a tropical humid forest as birds, monkeys, and sloths up high in the upper part of towering trees where most of the flowering and fruiting take place, above water springs, by a waterfall bursting out of a mountainside, SkyWalk Hanging Bridges Trail.
Walk along the waterfront of Espadilla beach with awesome views of the Manuel Antonio's coastline in the afternoon.
Overnight: Manuel Antonio
