The Experience

What your day looks like

Your breath-taking adventure begins with a pickup from the pier and a relaxing drive through the wonderful Costa Rican countryside on an air-conditioned transportation and a recent model deluxe vehicle or minibus. Your guide will point out many sights of interest including mango, coffee, sugar, and citrus plantations, diverse fruit stands, and rural farming communities. You will be heading to the Central Pacific Coast, Tarcoles River, and Vista Los Sueños until arriving at our private property, about a 60-minute drive from Puntarenas Pier. Upon arrival at our beautiful property, you will have some free time to use restrooms and explore the surroundings before starting the adventure. In our adventure center, before you begin your journey, you will receive instructions and then take a test run on our specially designed private track. From here on, your guide will lead you along the jungle trails, Teak plantations, 14 river crossings, dirt paths real rainforest, viewpoints, and 2 different beaches. During the tour, your guide will provide bottled water, and at the end of this Costa Rica ATV adventure, we will greet you with fresh tropical fruits. The driving time and ATV tour last 2 hours. After this great adventure, our tour will continue with a short drive to Tarcoles River, where a 60-minute eco boat tour will allow you to enjoy the abundant wildlife of the area, including the huge crocodiles, multiple aquatic birds, scarlet macaws, howler monkeys, and other amazing tropical species. After these two great adventures, return to the pier. Upon arrival, you can decide to stay in the city or make your way back directly to the ship. For all those interested in walking along the boulevards, the pier is located right in the city at a very short distance from your ship. So, no worries for an easy return.
