Take an informative guided hike through the extensive primary forest of Braulio Carrillo National Park.
This exclusive tour offers a deep dive into the park’s rich biodiversity and ecological significance. You’ll learn about local conservation efforts and the area’s importance as a biological corridor.
The park is home to lush rainforests, steep-sided river canyons and mountainous ridges, providing a variety of habitats. Amongst the towering trees you’ll discover a wealth of wildlife, including exotic birds, mammals, and reptiles – from peccaries and pumas to vultures, quetzals and more.
Be the lesser spotted human! Take a relaxed wander through the Osa Peninsula National Park and spot tapirs taking a stroll just a stones throw away and a humpback whale breaching in the distance.
