What better way to see picturesque Costa Rica than by car?. You will pick up your car at San Jose City Airport and will start your trip in Arenal Volcano (youngest and one of the most active stratovolcano in Costa Rica, near Lake Arena. Is a place that begs to be explored; rivers wind through bountiful rainforests, waterfalls crash amidst inspiring canyons, and hot springs gurgle up beneath the base of an impressive volcano); after that, drive along the country visiting: Monteverde (one of Costa Rica's biggest attractions and famous Cloud Forest Reserve, perfect for anyone looking for an educational nature experience, adventure in the jungle or birdwatching; one of the best places to spot the elusive Resplendent Quetzal, a mythical bird in Costa Rica and other Central American countries), and then, is Manuel Antonio (home to a namesake national Park in Quepos; Manuel Antonio is a magical combination of rainforest, beaches, hills, and coral reefs, making it one of the most biodiverse areas in the world and one of the most visited in Costa Rica). Finally, drive back to spend one last night stay in San Jose City (is Costa Rica`s Capital city known for its natural beauty. An urban space like most contemporary cities: full of hipster Costa Rican coffee shops and craft beer bars). This is a flexible vacation package. Select your number of nights in each city, desired hotel and activities.
