Pokud byste si chtěli zážitek z Kostariky ještě více užít, nabízíme možnost prodloužení pobytu o 5 nocí – vybrat si můžete ze dvou atraktivních variant:

Varianta č. 1 – Oblast NP Arenal

Národní park Arenal je jednou z nejikoničtějších oblastí Kostariky, proslulou majestátním vulkánem Arenal, který se tyčí nad okolní krajinou a vytváří nezapomenutelné scenérie. Tato oblast je opravdovým rájem pro milovníky přírody, nabízí množství turistických tras vedoucích k vyhlídkám na sopku, do tropických
pralesů i k vodopádům, jako je slavný La Fortuna. Hlavní atrakcí jsou zde unikátní termální prameny, které vznikly díky sopečné činnosti. Užijete si zde příjemné koupání v přírodních horkých pramenech obklopených bujnou zelení – jde o ideální místo pro relaxaci po dnech plných dobrodružství.
