It is a wild adventure called Off Roading that can only be had in Guanacaste with Off Road Costa Rica. All I can say is that I absolutely loved it. Maybe with a small description you will get a better idea of why I loved this tour so much: It is basically the combination of 4 x 4 driving with light hiking that involve river crossings, steeps, mud and huge puddles while learning about the gorgeous flora and fauna found in the Costa Rican back-country.
It was a great family adventure, perfect for a day trip. The company also offers many tour options, so you can adapt it to your needs. Some of the tours they offer are: half-day Safari trip, or a coast to coast Off-Road Expedition, or a 3 day trip around the Nicoya Peninsula.
There is even the possibility to get married in the middle of virgin tropical forest. The choice is up to you! My family and I chose the half-day safari trip and loved every minute of it.
Here are some other things that this great tour includes:
1. Toyota BJ40 or FJ40 Land Cruiser
2. All Safari equipment which is an Indiana Jones bag filled with binoculars, two-way radios, maps, magnifying glasses and bandanas.
3. A lead jeep with sea kayak, snorkeling equipment, footballs, frisbees, boogie boards, canvas chairs, tables, ice chests, spare parts, spare fuel, maps, tools.
4. Mechanic and guide.
5. Pre-mapped route.
It made it into my top favorite things to do in Costa Rica and will be hard to beat. As you can see it was such a great experience for me and my family that I thought it was worth writing about. I would highly recommend it for anyone who's traveling to Costa Rica.
