Costa Rica is without a doubt one of my favourite places on earth! I have wanted to take an adventure into this part of Central America for a long long time. My wife and I decided to go for a month to experience its wildlife, beautiful parks and jungles. We created our own tour and did all our research before we left deciding to rent a 4×4 and drive it all. The distances were a few hours drive per place but little did I know that it was 3/4 hours of pure off roading! It felt like such a untouched wilderness when you ventured from the city of San Jose and made your way to more remote areas of the country. But that was exactly what we were looking for. If you want to reconnect to nature this is the place I promise you. As a lover of capturing the moment I took my Mavic Pro and Sony A7S2 with me to capture the holiday experience. I hope you enjoy the film as much as we did experiencing it.
We certainly experienced the top 10 attractions and our favourite place was without a doubt Volcano Arenal. Actually I am going to make a big statement but of all the wonderful places I have been in this world, I have to say that Volcan Arenal is my favourite place on this planet. People often talk of a place having energy you can really feel, sometimes I struggle to feel it, this place had my spidey senses going crazy! We stayed in the 5* Hotel Tabacon resort and spa right at the foot of the volcano and the natural hot spring was the most serene place I have ever been. I 150% recommend it.
Costa Rica has some of the best beaches in the world, and at times you have them all to yourself! The video of my wife doing yoga on the tree is proof! We also attended regular yoga classes each night which was the best I have ever experienced. Next time I will have to do a Yoga retreat. Costa Rica also caters for Vegans really well, It has an abundance of fresh fruits and veggies along with some awesome Vegan restaurants dotted around the place.
If your looking for a vacation to chill out this is the place for you, if your looking for an adventurous outdoor experience that will fully connect you back to nature this is the holiday for you too!
