Welcome to the Rainforest & Sloth tour, an extraordinary rainforest adventure that will leave you with lifelong memories. Our tour begins with a comfortable pick-up from your hotel in a well-equipped, air-conditioned van. As we embark on a 2.5-hour journey across Costa Rica’s rustic back roads, you’ll be captivated by the stunning landscapes of quaint villages and majestic mountains.
Our destination is the enchanting Rio Celeste, nestled within a National Park graced with magical beauty and unique colors adorning its waters and vegetation. Situated along the slopes of Tenorio Volcano, this spectacular place sets the stage for one of our greatest adventures, the Rainforest & Sloth tour.
Prepare to immerse yourself in a hike through the dense, lush tropical rainforest, which surrounds the park, creating an awe-inspiring ambiance. After approximately 45 minutes of invigorating hiking, you’ll arrive at the crown jewel of Costa Rica, Cascada de Rio Celeste, also known as the “Light Blue River’ Waterfall.” Witness the breathtaking waterfall that stands before you, its cascading sounds echoing through the air. Descending to its base, you’ll be spellbound by its immense beauty and mesmerizing light blue coloration. Words cannot fully capture the magnificence of this natural wonder; it truly must be seen to be believed. Don’t forget to bring your camera to capture these unforgettable moments!
For those seeking a refreshing adventure, there is also the option to swim in the light-blue waters of Rio Celeste, in a section of the river that ensures your safety and it’s outside of the National Park. Remember to pack your swimsuit and relish the chance to cool off surrounded by the wonders of Costa Rican nature.
After concluding our exploration of Rio Celeste, we will take you to a family farm nestled between the Tenorio Volcano and Miraballes Volcano. This picturesque farm serves as a natural bridge for various species, including majestic toucans, crested guans, and lovable sloths. The dedicated efforts of this family have transformed the farm into a natural sanctuary, attracting a diverse range of wildlife.
Embark on an easy 40-minute hike through this enchanting property, where you’ll encounter two species of sloths, vibrant frogs, captivating toucans, and many other fascinating creatures.
