Who would you like to explore Costa Rica with? As Costa Rica specialists, we know the country has everything to offer. From lying tranquil in the sun on one of the many pearly white beaches or excitingly trekking through the green rainforests with a machete. Or perhaps you're just looking for a nice mix between rest and adventure? Whatever your travel needs are, we can already map out a plan for you to fit your budget. Can you picture it?
Mindfulness customized!
YES! You want to travel to the beautiful and diverse Costa Rica and then? Somewhere you are in dire need of a moment to yourself and are thinking about a retreat. But you also want to see something of the country and maybe do nothing and relax on the Caribbean coast. Fortunately, this country has everything your vacation heart desires. And can we feel free to make a travel plan together with the best of everything. So, for example, a 5-day yoga retreat followed by an Ayahuasca ceremony and then a lovely two weeks of recuperation in a cozy hippie beach village. What you want ... So what do you want?
Customized retreats
Need to unwind, find some depth or just do nothing at all? Costa Rica's motto for life is not for nothing "Pura Vida," or pure life; a relaxed, stress-free and delayed lifestyle. Virtually unique in the world and it may be said, the ideal climate for retreats. Consider yoga retreats, ecstatic dance festivals, cocoa and ayahuasca ceremonies, or taking plant medicine, for example. And so there are a legion of possibilities. What is good to know about this is that we have contacts throughout the country in the spiritual and mindful world who can contribute to your ideal journey. But first of all, we are very curious about where your needs lie. What do you feel most strongly about at the moment?
