Costa Rica
What makes Costa Rica different?
Much can be written on what makes Costa Rica so unique. Other countries in Central America can claim beautiful landscapes and friendly people, but visit Costa Rica and you’ll find it just feels different. From the open locals that you'll meet in the markets, known as “Ticos", to the fun but always professional guides leading you on your Pacuare River adventure, you’ll find the laid-back “Pura Vida” attitude everywhere.
Perhaps this difference is tied to the fact that Costa Rica abolished its military way back in 1949, saving it from the turmoil and troubles that affected its neighbors for decades, and freeing its people to focus on education, healthcare and caring for their land. Whatever the reason, the relaxed beauty of this place will stick with you. Experience one of the Arenal Tours or come enjoy the Pacuare River.
