Hidden Treasures Inclusive Adventure Vacation

Rio Perdido’s character comes from its extraordinary meeting of rivers. Warm mineral water and the cooler Rio Blanco flow through tall canyon walls near Bagaces, deep in Guanacaste’s tropical dry forest.

Samara changes the rhythm. Forest canyons give way to a broad Pacific view, palms along the shore and the relaxed atmosphere of a beach town.

• In the starting trip, the Canyon Canopy Zipline Adventure and White Water Tubing remain two separate included experiences on Days 2 and 3.
• Two days are free of scheduled excursions. Free-day entries describe time to explore on your own and do not include any services.

• Rio Perdido brings you into the dry forest and river canyon: the canopy circuit crosses above the Rio Blanco, while tubing follows the whitewater between its walls. They are separate outings, leaving time back at the hotel between adventures.
• Samara offers a softer pace beside the Pacific. Two unscheduled beach days let you enjoy the shore and town, or ask your planner about a separate Kayaking and Snorkeling Tour to Chora Island. That optional outing is not included and has its own swimming, weight and operating requirements.
• The starting stay at Azura is adults-only and all-inclusive; Hotel Belvedere offers a smaller stay near town, and Nammbu offers the hillside Carrillo setting. Your planner can help choose the coastal atmosphere you prefer.

This is a complete forest-and-coast vacation to enjoy as it stands. Your Pacific Trade Winds specialist can also help tailor the details to your dates and interests.

Breakfast is included at Rio Perdido. At Azura, the all-inclusive plan covers breakfast, lunch and dinner, with unlimited premium alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Azura accepts guests aged 18 and older. Extra beach-day excursions are not included. Private airport and between-hotel transfers are included; transportation to and from the listed activities remains part of the itinerary. Your return to Liberia airport is timed to arrive three hours before your flight.

Whitewater tubing requires swimming skills, a minimum age of 12, a maximum weight of 130 kg and a minimum height of 1.30 m in the dry season or 1.40 m in the rainy season. Rainy-season difficulty increases, weather affects operation, and exposed rocks can cause cuts or bruises. The canyon canopy adventure includes climbing and swinging elements. Rio Perdido’s approach includes unpaved road that can be rough in some seasons.
