Turrialba + Irazú Volcanos Excursion

During this excursion, we'll explore the breathtaking Turrialba and Irazú volcanoes and enjoy a leisurely walk in both national parks. Did you know these are the highest craters in the region?

Description

No visit to Costa Rica is complete without experiencing its majestic volcanoes. The country features impressive craters that offer stunning landscapes you'll cherish. We will arrange for your pick-up from the hotel at the predetermined time to embark on a journey to the Irazú and Turrialba volcanoes.

Our adventure begins at the Irazú Volcano National Park, situated in Cartago. Over the next hour, we'll traverse the perimeter of the magnificent crater. Are you aware that this is one of the tallest volcanoes in Costa Rica?

Irazú features five distinct craters and is enveloped by low shrubs that harmonize beautifully with the mountainous backdrop. We'll ascend to the summit, and if weather conditions are favorable, we'll enjoy spectacular vistas of both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans.

After completing our hike, you will have an hour of free time to savor lunch at a nearby restaurant. Following our meal, we will proceed to the Turrialba Volcano National Park, known as one of the most active volcanoes in the region.

Although we will not venture to the rim of its crater, we'll explore the surrounding area where, weather permitting, we can observe the varied waterfalls that have formed through its lush forests. The diverse landscapes are sure to captivate you!

At the conclusion of our trip, approximately after 8 to 10 hours, we'll return to the hotel, marking the end of the tour.
