Your Travel Experience with Finest Journeys
Journey to the Northern Caribbean
After breakfast, you'll depart for Tortuguero, a key nesting site for green sea turtles. The area is known for its lush rainforest and diverse wildlife. You'll fly from San Jose to Tortuguero, then transfer to the lodge by boat. Upon arrival, you'll board a boat for a scenic journey through the Tortuguero canals, which have earned the area the nickname "Central America's Amazon." The area is only accessible by water due to its location in a river delta. Upon arrival at the lodge, you'll meet your bilingual nature guide. They'll provide an overview of the afternoon's optional activities. After lunch, visit the village of Tortuguero. Learn about the local Afro-Caribbean culture, shop for handicrafts, and sample local delicacies. Tourism and sea turtle conservation are the primary sources of income for the community. The rest of the afternoon is free to relax at the lodge. Enjoy the pool or explore the grounds at your leisure .
