About this Trip


Get ready for an exhilarating and fun-filled vacation in Costa Rica! Let's explore as much as Costa Rica as possible with activities and locally-inspired experiences. Think hiking to Volcanoes, wildlife spotting on a River Safari, walking on Hanging Bridges, soaking in hot springs, horseback riding on the beach, Costa Rican cuisine...and that's just the beginning.


We’ll begin in the lush Arenal region, where towering volcano views, mineral-rich thermal pools, and dense rainforest trails set the stage for adventure—traverse the famous hanging bridges, listen for howler monkeys, and soak in warm, natural hot springs surrounded by the sounds of the jungle. From there, we head to Tamarindo, a vibrant beach town on Costa Rica’s stunning Gold Coast, where you’ll enjoy ocean views, poolside relaxation, beach clubs, local restaurants, and a breathtaking sunset catamaran cruise with chances to spot dolphins, turtles, and even whales. Finally, we’ll retreat deep into Guanacaste’s peaceful coastal jungle for a soul-nourishing stay at our hidden gem—a serene haven designed to help you disconnect, recenter, and truly feel the magic of Costa Rica, complete with healthy meals, lush surroundings, yoga classes, optional wellness activities, and plenty of hammock time.


Special Activity (Included):

MeWannaGo always includes unique experiences that are not generic to most trips. Costa Rica is no exception!  On this trip, we will go on a River Safari in one of the 5 Blue Zones of the World (Peninsula of Nicoya) while we enjoy the beautiful nature of the Tempisque River, Palo Verde National Park & Cipanci Wildlife Refuge. If we're lucky we will spot white-faced monkeys, macaws, and even a few crocodiles. We will visit a rural community and enjoy healthy dishes with locally cultivated ingredients from their small farm using unique and inherited recipes from their grandmothers.  Join us in this rare experience!


Special Experience (Included):

Looking to find yourself lost in the jungles of Costa Rica surrounded by nature, peacefulness, and an undeniable sense of belonging and positive energy? The retreat portion of our trip will provide a space for you to let your hair down, find your center, and go home feeling refreshed in a way that you could never expect.  We're taking you to a hidden gem away from the city.  With wifi through-out, you'll be able to connect to the real world if needed. However, once you arrive and experience the magical energy that this place provides, you'll realize that getting lost for a few days is exactly what you needed. With daily yoga classes, healthy meals, drinks, tours and activities, we know that this is what you came to Costa Rica for.

From the Trip Host


I’m so excited to share Costa Rica with you! This itinerary was created with intention — a blend of adventure, culture, relaxation, and those “wow” moments that make travel unforgettable. From volcano views and hanging bridges to golden coastlines and our peaceful jungle retreat, each part of this journey is meant to help you explore, unwind, and reconnect with yourself.


Throughout the trip, I’ll be here to support you, answer questions, and make sure you feel comfortable and cared for. My hope is that you let yourself be present — to laugh, breathe deeply, try new things, and enjoy the magic of pura vida.


Thank you for being here. I can’t wait to make memories with you in this beautiful place. Let’s enjoy every moment together. ✨
