Begins and Ends: San Jose, Costa Rica
Caravan’s all-inclusive, adventure travel tour of Costa Rica is a fully guided sightseeing vacation conducted by experienced Professional Tour Operators.
This small country of fewer than 4 million people is located between Nicaragua and Panama and is commonly called the jewel of Central America, and for good reason; Costa Rica is one of the world’s most ecologically rich regions with a solid reputation as the "wildlife sanctuary of the Americas”.
The peace-loving people of Costa Rica are very warm and friendly. They enjoy a well-deserved reputation for being environmentally conscious and promoting eco tourism on a grand scale. In fact, Costa Rica tourism has been the number one industry in the country for a many years.
As the second smallest Central American country, Costa Rica is a favorite travel destination for tourists from around the globe. Costa Rica also enjoys beautiful unspoiled beaches on the Pacific Ocean to the West and on the Atlantic Caribbean coastline to the east.

Many of Costa Rica’s 116 volcanoes are still active like the natural fireworks of Arenal volcano, included in Caravan’s all-inclusive adventure travel tour. Most Costa Rica volcanoes are dormant however, like tourism favorite Poás Volcano, which has been dormant since 1991 but still impresses visitors with its spectacular mile wide crater.

Costa Rica has many National Parks, wildlife preserves and protected areas including Braulio Carillo Park with its famous cascading waterfalls, Cano Palma Wildlife Preserve with its mysterious reflecting eco water systems and Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve.
Cloud forests are similar to rainforests but with more humidity and less rain. Monteverde is also home to the Children’s Eternal Rainforest, which was purchased by donations made from school children around the world.

Tortuguero National Park is renowned for its rare green macaw and is also the natural habitat for howler and white faced monkeys.
Located near the world famous Atlantic Turtle nesting beaches, the Green Turtle Research Station was established to help protect turtle eggs, young hatchlings and the turtle nesting habitat. These beaches are also the nesting grounds for hawksbill turtles, leatherbacks and loggerheads.
River cruises are accompanied by knowledgeable naturalist guides and include the canals of Tortuguero National Park, Tortuguero River and the eco system along the Rio Frio. This adventure travel tour will also take you on a walk across an aerial bridge through the jungle canopy over Costa Rica’s Sarapapiqui River, plus enjoy a thrilling rainforest aerial tram ride that glides through the jungle canopy.

Caravan Tours began selling fully escorted tours in 1952. We have been under the same management and ownership ever since. In 1965, Roger Mudd hosted a two hour CBS TV special on Caravan Tours. This TV production took about one month to make and was so successful it inspired the 1968 romantic comedy movie “If it’s Tuesday this must be Belgium.” In the early 50’s the Mayor of Dublin presented Caravan with the Key to Dublin for bringing the first American tour to the city after WWII. Since then Caravan has been recognized as a pioneer in travel. More recently, Caravan was awarded the Sierra Madre Explora award for our positive effect on Mexico’s Copper Canyon region!
Caravan’s strong buying power gives you great vacations at prices much lower than you can find anywhere. Last year many of our tours sold out quickly. Book early for the date you prefer and the best air fare.
Caravan Tours is a member of ASTA (American Society of Travel Agents), NTA (National Tour Association), CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association), and an allied member of ACTA (Alliance of Canadian Travel Agencies).
Caravan delivers volume to our suppliers, who in turn reward us with their very best prices, we in turn pass these savings on to you, and you reward us by buying our tours. As volume continues to rise, we then receive even better prices from our suppliers, and we pass even greater savings on to you. This year our tours are better than ever.
The short answer is “very.” Our surveys are uniformly very positive. However we continually strive to improve our tours, (they are often updated several times in the course of one year), we study all client surveys and suggestions for improvement very carefully.
Caravan includes all activities listed in the tour itinerary page. Caravan does not sell any optional activities which can add hundreds of dollars to your tour price. Your free time is scheduled in great settings where there is no need to buy additional expensive activities.
