Itinerary
Day 1
Liberia to the Rincón de la Vieja Area
Today is your arrival day. An included group transfer will be available from the Liberia Airport to the lodge property near Rincón de la Vieja National Park. Upon arrival, there will be an evening welcome meeting, where you will meet your CEO and fellow travellers. Sit down for a group dinner at the lodge restaurant before a guided night walk on the property to get you acquainted with the resident nocturnal wildlife.
Day 2
Rincón de la Vieja National Park Area
Enjoy breakfast at the lodge before transferring to Rincón de la Vieja National Park where you will embark on a hike in the area to gain a full sense of the tropical and volcanic landscape, while searching for resident wildlife. Travel back to the hotel in the afternoon for free time on the property. Activity options range from ziplining, hiking in the area, and various cultural experiences.
Day 3
Rincón de la Vieja Volcano National Park Area
Enjoy a full free day in the Rincon de la Vieja area with an abundance of optional activities to choose from. Between hiking, bird watching, or spa treatments and a soak in the hot springs, your day can be as leisurely or busy as you’d like.
Day 4
Rincón de la Vieja Volcano National Park Area to Playa Flamingo
After breakfast at the lodge the group will travel to Playa Flamingo on Costa Rica’s northern Pacific coast. Enjoy a CEO-led orientation walk upon arrival to get to know this uniquely set up town, whose central area has remained a pristine beach protected by a large mangrove forest. Then, spend a free evening exploring on your own.
