Rincón de la Vieja and the falls around Bagaces: the big inland days.

Rincón de la Vieja's well-known adventure park packs the whole menu into one day: zip lines, river tubing and horseback riding, then volcanic mud and natural hot springs to finish.
Rincón de la Vieja Full day
Guided trails through one of the most active volcanic areas in the country: craters, bubbling mud pots and steaming fumaroles, plus the La Cangreja and Hidden waterfalls and a soak in the hot springs.
Rincón de la Vieja Half day
A hike up a river canyon to a hidden waterfall, with turquoise pools at the end for a swim. One of the most photo-worthy spots in Guanacaste, and a shorter day than the full national park.
Bagaces Half day
A wide, curtain-style waterfall with its own sandy beach at the bottom. Swim, float, sit in the sand and get the photo. An easy half day that works for almost any group.
Arenal / La Fortuna Full day
A longer day inland toward Arenal: misty cloud-forest trails, hanging bridges, and a swim in clear pools at the base of La Paz waterfall.
Zip lines, tubing and ATV trails for groups who want a rush.
Guanacaste 3-4 hours
Rough trails, river crossings and mountain paths, then a run along the coast. Helmets and gear are provided and no experience is needed.
Playa Matapalo Full day
One of the longest zip-line courses in Costa Rica, a sanctuary for rescued wildlife, butterfly gardens, and Diamante beach below the whole thing.
River safaris and quiet coastal hikes, slower and closer to nature.
Palo Verde Half day
A slow boat down the Tempisque River through Palo Verde National Park, watching for crocodiles, monkeys, iguanas and some of the hundreds of bird species that live there.
Papagayo Peninsula Half day
Coastal trails through dry tropical forest on the Papagayo Peninsula, with quiet beaches, big ocean lookouts and very few other people.
Coffee, shopping and long lunches, for the days you want less effort.
Guanacaste Half day
A working Costa Rican coffee farm, from the plant to the cup: tastings, a look at the roasting, and freshly roasted beans to take home.
Tamarindo Flexible
A door-to-door day in Tamarindo at your own pace: boutiques, a beachfront lunch, souvenirs and a sunset drink. Your ride waits while you enjoy the town, then takes you home.
Sport fishing out of Marina Flamingo, a few minutes from town.
Marina Flamingo 4.5 to 8 hours
Fish the Pacific from the marina in town for roosterfish, snapper, mahi-mahi, marlin, sailfish and yellowfin tuna. Tackle and door-to-door transport are included.
