Photo Gallery

  Welcome to the
dazzling, enchanted
land of Costa Rica
 
 

A veritable
cornucopia
of wildlife
and verdure
awaits discovery

 
  This new itinerary
features the lush
Osa Peninsula
in the southwest
 
  We're based at
the beachside
retreat called:
Jinetes de Osa
 
  A stroll in the
sand on the beach
is a prescription
for relaxation
 
  One day we boat
several miles
offshore to the
Caño Island
National Reserve
 
  It is a lush,
pristine,
uninhabited
tropical paradise
 
  Enjoy time
on the beach
 
  Take advantage
of some of the
country's clearest
waters for snorkeling
or scuba diving
 
  A highlight
of another day's
adventures is the
Corcovado
National Park
 
  Hike through
the jungle
 
  Far from
civilization
 
  What can have
so riveted our
attention?
 
  Could it be the
three-toed sloth
climbing slowly along
the tree branch?
 
  Or could it be
the two male
monkeys
showing off
for the men
of Toto?
 
  You'll have to
come and see
for yourself (wink)
 
  Next stop is the
Rincon (Volcano)
de la Vieja in the
northwest
Guanacaste
Province
 
  Home for three
nights is the
Hacienda
Guachipilin
 
  The Hacienda's
open-air dining
facilities
 
  Poolside at the
Hacienda
 
  Enjoy a hike
to a nearby
waterfall . . .
 
  . . . for a dip
in these
refreshing
waters
 
  There is also a
mudbath spa
on the property
 
  A staff member
smears you with
volcanic mud from
head to toe
 
  After drying in the sun
ask a friend to scrub
your back in the
thermally heated
cleansing pool
 
  The Hacienda
has a full stable
of excellent
riding horses
 
  One day we'll
ride horses . . .
 
  . . . to the Rincon
de la Vieja
National Park
 
  Enjoy a hike
on the slopes
of the Volcano. . .
 
  . . . to discover
natural boiling
mudpots
 
  Finally, gear up
for one of the
adventures of a
lifetime . . .
 
  . . . the Kazam Canyon
Canopy Tour
 
  You are safely
harnessed to
cables stretching
across a dramatic
river canyon
 
  At the proper
moment, swing
like Tarzan from
one platform to
the next
 
  This exciting adventure
also involves some
rock climbing
 
  "Hey guys! This
is awesome!"
 
  Join us in
Costa Rica
for a most
memorable
Thanksgiving
