CONSERVacations Customized itineraries:

Feel at home in nature
Step out onto a hanging bridge over a lush forested gorge; feel the power of a tropical rainstorm; let the gentle surf carry you to the shore. There is so much richness and meaning in our interactions with nature. Our customized itineraries let you experience all of it in your own way at a relaxed pace.

Conservation communities
The communities that you will visit are inspiring, each one dedicated to conservation of forests, water and wildlife. The simple but beautiful lodges where you will stay are family- or community-owned. You will experience the warmth and goodness of the Costa Rican campesino.

Your own bilingual naturalist guide/driver
You and your family or friends will have your own vehicle with a bilingual naturalist driver/guide who is familiar with these out-of-the-way communities.

Because this is your private tour, it can go at any time of year, to correspond with your most convenient dates. This is your chance to be in several of the most beautiful and inspiring places that Key to Costa Rica author Beatrice Blake has found in her 30 years of traveling in Costa Rica.
