Further information
When should I go? The general rule is the further north you are, the drier it will be. So, if you plan to travel on the cusp of the seasons you can expect the best weather in the northwest and on the north Pacific coast. The rainy season is a good time to travel to avoid the crowds. Rains usually last only a couple of hours and do not cause any problems for visitors. The rainy season is heaviest in September and October. The cloudforest region of Monteverde is at altitude, so can feel chilly throughout the year, especially at night. How active? You can choose from a variety of excursions from the very active (surfing, horse riding, mountain biking, hiking) to the less active – wildlife walks, scenic drives and of course, just relaxing on a beach. Since you have your own car for most of this holiday, you can set your own pace. How comfortable? How independent? As well as back up on the ground if you need it, we provide maps and local information to help you make the most of your time. How responsible? Your holiday with us will directly benefit these causes: • The Neotropica Foundation works with communities and schools to improve environmental education, helping local people to live in a more sustainable way. • For the last forty years the Caribbean Conservation Corporation has been monitoring the arrival sea turtles in Tortuguero, gathering information on their migratory and reproductive habits. This information is proving vital in the struggle to protect these creatures and their habitat. • Paniamor Foundation is a private non-profit, non-partisan, organization created in 1987 and works to protect the social interests of vulnerable and disadvantaged Costa Ricans.
