Olivier Esquivel

Maritza Lopez
Senior Product Manager
Costa Rica’s incredible diversity never ceases to amaze me! In just one week, you can explore lush rainforests, sun-drenched beaches, and encounter wildlife at every turn. Spotting a resplendent quetzal for the first time was pure magic. For a small country, it offers more adventure than anywhere else I’ve traveled!
German Rojas
Tour Director
I love guiding groups through Costa Rica’s diverse landscapes. From lush rainforests, cloud forests, beaches, and volcanoes. Each region is rich in culture and wildlife, but what truly makes the experience special is the incredible people who help us dive into culture and make travel matter.

Highlights
Biodiversity & Wildlife
Costa Rica is one of the most biologically diverse places on Earth, home to sloths, monkeys, toucans, and the resplendent quetzal. With lush rainforests and national parks protecting 5% of the world’s biodiversity, travelers enjoy wildlife encounters in one of the world’s most pristine natural environments. One of the most iconic experiences is the serene boat journey through the winding canals of Tortuguero, where guests glide past dense jungle teeming with howler monkeys, caimans, and brightly colored birds.
Scenic Exploration, Seamlessly Guided
From tranquil boat tours and rejuvenating volcanic hot springs to nature walks with expert guides, every moment is rich with discovery. A highlight is the hanging bridges walk near Arenal, where misty treetops, distant volcanoes, and rainforest life unfold beneath your feet. Small group touring ensures a seamless journey, immersing you in local culture, wildlife, and stunning vistas without the hassle of planning — so you’ll never miss the hidden gems only locals know.
Pura Vida Culture & Sustainability
Costa Rica’s Pura Vida spirit shines through its warm hospitality, vibrant traditions, and deep respect for nature. As a global leader in sustainability, the country is committed to conservation, eco-tourism, and uplifting local communities. At DA, our sustainable travel initiatives align with these values — from partnering with responsible local providers to supporting experiences like our heart of palm tour, where guests learn firsthand about sustainable farming and rural traditions.
