Braulio Carrillo National Park is not currently part of our Caravan Costa Rica tour but it is definitely worth visiting if you get the chance.

Like many of this country’s other biological reserves, this is a destination that should not be missed by visiting nature lovers and bird watchers.
Although the Green Turtle Research Station is not currently part of our Costa Rica itinerary, Caravan Tours supports their ongoing conservation efforts.

A Caravan all inclusive Costa Rica tour is the ultimate tropical vacation with all the exotic trappings that you would expect and more.
The name “Costa Rica” means “Rich Coast” and the pure, untamed beauty of Costa Rica’s Pacific and Caribbean coastlines reveal unspoiled eco diversity like nowhere else on earth.
This diversity is possible partly because Costa Rica abolished the military decades ago and used that funding for the preservation of their natural heritage. Today, over 23% of Costa Rica is now protected in National Parks, refuges, and wildlife preserves.
