Astuto Travel is your best partner for a vacation in Costa Rica. The friendly and knowledgeable staff at Astuto Travel have experience booking hundreds of trips to this beautiful vacation destination.

Astuto Travel has helped the small Central American country of Costa Rica in recent times has become the world’s leader in the booming market of ecotourism: national parks and flora and fauna reserves now make up nearly 25% of the country’s landmass.

Astuto Travel is proud to see that most reserves are open to the public with experienced bi-lingual guides. The guides take tourists through Costa Rica’s unique biological diversity with its hundreds of species of animals, birds, reptiles, butterflies, and plant life not to be seen anywhere else in the world, rain forests, deciduous forests, mangroves and wetlands, six active volcanoes and many hot springs.

Astuto Travel members recommend full-day or half-day tours to many of the ecotourism destinations and other attractions.

The Palo Verde National Park is an excellent option for an adventure that offers boat rides through mangroves and swamps that sustain the largest population of waterfowl and wading birds in Central America. The Arenal Volcano with rainforests and hot springs, La Fortuna Waterfall and underground cave exploration, or the Hacienda Guachipelin with its virgin rain forests, home to many unique mammals, birds, reptiles, and flora, are also top-rated destinations.

 

For those who want to have an exciting day rafting, the rapids of the Río Negro are an excellent option, and there are various hiking tours available in the same region. For a different on-the-water type of excursion, there’s the boat ride across Lake Nicaragua to Nicaragua’s fourth-largest city, Colonial Granada. It is home to distinctive sixteenth-century colonial-era architecture, vibrant shopping centers, and many museums.

Surrounded by the Caribbean to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west, Costa Rica also offers a magnificent coastline with a range of spectacular maritime sports and activities.
The Gulf of Papagayo, situated on the west coast, is renowned for its crystal clear waters of the Pacific. It is yet another popular spot for swimming, scuba diving, or snorkeling amongst bull sharks, sea turtles, and other unique marine life.

Astuto Travel members also enjoy the famous surfing spot Witches Rock and Ollie’s Point internationally, sunset sailing tours along the remarkable coastlines, and jet skiing. Deepsea fishing for tuna, sailfish, and many other species of big game fish is also a favorite pastime in Costa Rica.
