El Silencio del Campo (3 Nights)

Day 1 — Your VIP greeter will be waiting when you touch down at the international airport, and we'll get you on your way to La Fortuna and Arenal volcano. Private bungalows await at Silencio del Campo, each with view across tropical gardens to volcán Arenal from their picture windows and private patios. Relax in the private hot spring fed pool then cool down in the separate adults or kids swimming pools.
            

Arenal Volcano Hike

Day 2 — Arenal is the third most active volcano in the world and erupts every 5-10 minutes. Each eruption could be anything from a little ash to giant boulders and tons of lava and in the late afternoon a bilingual naturalist guide will lead you on a short hike through the rainforest to the closest safe observation point where you'll have a chance to view the glow emerge on the cone as the sun sets.

Optional - This evening is the perfect opportunity if you'd like to visit Tabacón or other hotsprings for a relaxing dinner and soak.

Rio Toro Rafting

Day 3 — Today is an awesome day of explosive adventure, rafting on the Rio Toro.

Tamer rafting on the class II & III Río Balsa also available on request.

Day 4 — Why drive when you can do the famous Land-Boat-Land shortcut to Monteverde? A short drive from your hotel there's a boat waiting to take you on a 45 minute cruise across Lake Arenal on the way there are vantage points that provide some of the best unobstructed views of the volcano. A waiting transfer will take you up the mountainside to your cloud forest accommodations at Monteverde.

Nestled in the cloud forest, the Trapp Family Lodge is the closest to the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve and the only one within walking distance.

All safety gear, transportation, a trained guide and a hearty typical lunch are included.

Exploring Quepos

Day 10 — The entrance to the Manuel Antonio region, Quepos, has plenty of restaurants, bars, surf shops, souvenir vendors and other tourist geared shopping, and if you look a little closer you'll find a lot of the original fishing village character still intact.
