Costa Rica Adventure 2011 Activities

While in Costa Rica your adventure will include:

 

Whitewater Rafting

Costa Rica travelers always list whitewater rafting as a highlight. There are so many rivers to choose from andwe vary each year depending on the water level, the amount of rainfall, and the recommendations of the experts. We promise exhilarating rapids, breath-taking plunges, great guides, and an unforgettable grand finale. The expert guides provide us with the best equipment available and their expertise is beyond reproach.

 

 

Volcano Trekking

Arenol Volcano and Volcan Baru offer exceptional views. our teen tours take us up close and personal to these awesome views. Bring a camera and get prepared to be amazed! Often, our Costa Rica tour participants not only see the lava, but actually hear the explosions!

 

Zip Line Canopy Tour

Imagine 13 (yes, 13) long runs! Imagine viewing wildlife along the way! Imagine pristine views of the Pacific Ocean! It doesn't get any better than this!

 

Rain Forest Visit

Adventure travel in CostaRica should always include rain forest visits and our teen travel tours visit the rainforest multiple times. Expect to see sloths, howler monkeys, spider monkeys, white-faced monkeys, spider monkeys, scarlet macaws, dart frogs, boas, iguanas, crocs, mapaches, and more!

 

Surfing (optional)

World famous Pavones is part of our itinerary for the experienced or brave at heart. Others can take lessons at other beautiful Pacific beaches where the waves are a bit smaller. Boogie boarding is another alternative. No matter what you choose, a day at the beach is an awesome day!

 

 

 

Monkey Reserve visit

Visit an 0ff-the-beaten-path wildlife habitat dedicated to saving the rainforest animals. Hold on to your hat because the monkeys there already have a collection of hats belonging to previous Costa Rica teen tour participants.

 

National Park visits

Costa Rica has so many national parks and protected land. Costa Rica Adventure Camp believes this is the perfect setting to experience the wonders of Costa Rica so we will visit many of them. Manuel Antonio, Rincon de La Vieja, Poas, and Arenol are just some of the places we fequent.

 

Conversational Spanish Introduction

We usually travel with a native speaker who loves to teach us key phrases for our daily use. We can arrange additional private or small group lessons upon request.

 

Community Service Project

We visit local schools where we sometimes read with students and tell them about our culture. We might help in the rainforest, play games with students in the local libraries or assist with an ongoing beach clean-up.

 

Cultural Experiences

We'll eat in local restaurants, chat with local families, visit libraries and schools, and stay away from the tourist areas. We strive to give our teen tours a sense of the REAL Costa Rican lifestyle.

 

Pristine Beach visits

Imagine dark sand beaches with no other people in sight. Dolphins, turtles, and more.

 

Beach biking (optional)

Flat sandy beaches at low tide is the perfect bike ride. Actually ride from one village to another. Pass fishermen, and with a little luck, a great little seaside restaurant just waiting for us to sample the local food.
