A unique camping tour of Costa Rica and Panamá
featuring Caribbean and Pacific beaches and the remote
Corcovado National Park.
This fantastic 11 day camping
tour of Costa Rica and Panama offers the chance to
visit famous Manuel Antonio, as well as the off-the-beaten-path
Puerto Viejo and Bocas del Toro, Panama.
Leaving the capital of San José,
we visit Volcán Poás with time enough
to climb and gaze into its perfect crater before continuing
to San Carlos. Here we will explore some incredible
waterfalls and hikes along the Toro River, and there
will be opportunities to white water raft or trek
in this natural playground.
The next day finds us travelling
south towards Panamá and its enchanting archipelago,
Bocas del Toro, but first we will spend an evening
in Cahuita/Puerto Viejo to enjoy the night life and
Caribbean culture. Arriving to Bocas del Toro via
a scenic boat transfer, you will appreciate the area's
natural beauty.
During the day, you can take a boating
excursion and snorkel among a myriad of coral reef
and brightly coloured fish. In the evenings you can
sip rum cocktails and dance with the locals to the
unique rhythms of Panama's Caribbean islands. Returning
to Costa Rica, we stop in Cahuita/Puerto Viejo to
explore the marine park that bears its name. Afterwards,
choose to walk or bike to nearby waterfalls or enjoy
the day on the beach.
Travelling north and then west,
we make a stop at a private farm in the high southern
mountains that offers one of the best opportunities
to view the resplendent Quetzal, the most mythical
and illusive bird in Central America. The temperature
is cooler here and you will appreciate our comfortable
lodge in the forest.
Our last days have us in one of
the most famous beaches in all of Central America,
Manuel Antonio.
From the national park's beaches
and tropical forests to the delicious seafood, salsa
clubs and beach bars of the town, what better way
to end your 11 -day romp in Costa Rica and Panamá
than by body-surfing Manuel Antonio's perfectly curled
waves and perfecting your sun tan!
