Your 10 day guided tour with Zen Recreations

What can you expect from your 10 day tour?

• We have made our Costa Rican adventure into an ideal worry-free vacation for solo travelers and families. Over 30 percent of the country is dedicated to national parks, which means there are lots of places for animal populations to thrive. And pretty much anywhere you go, there’s some wildlife to discover. There are over 500,000 species of animals, including scarlet macaws, howler monkeys, colorful butterflies, humpback whales, iguanas, sea turtles, and sloths to meet while you’re there.
• When you are at one with nature you will find your life enriched as you relax and breathe in exciting new patterns of living. This is no ordinary vacation. You will soon find out, as you rub shoulders with the mysterious culture and history of old Costa Rica and learn about the power of the mystics and the shamans from our professional guides.
• Join us for breathtaking adventure as we soar through the trees on a canopy tour by air tram; go kayaking down the Balsa river; bathe in the sublime hot geysers; experience the Arenal volcano and more!
• Meet the wonderful welcoming people of Costa Rica and experience their quaint towns, villages and authentic pueblos.
• And who could possibly pass up the chance of trying delicious Costa Rican coffee first hand?

* For those travelers who were with us in Oaxaca Mexico, this is a continuation of your Central American tour and your onward connection is from Mexico. If you are joining us from any other part of the world we await your arrival in Costa Rica’s Santamaria International Airport (SJO) Alajuela.

**Zen Recreations also recommends you pack mosquito repellent, a sun-visor, a light raincoat, long pants, secure waterproof shoes hat or scarf.

Tip- vaccine.There are a few obscure requirements like a covid or yellow fever vaccine if you’re arriving from some African or South American countries but it’s impractical to list every one for every possible country so if you have any doubts check with your embassy, consulate or airline.The airlines try very hard to make sure they have all the requirements covered before they let you on the plane because they’re responsible for the cost of flying you home if you get turned back at the border.

When You Pass Through Immigration Pay Attention!

• Visa stamp on the passport
• Correct date
• Illegible squiggle for the duration of the visa (should say “90”)

Any of these could cause serious and expensive (immigration fines) problems while you’re traveling around Costa Rica, when you try to depart, or if you make a return visit.
