Costa Rica Holidays

Book your holiday to Costa Rica with Wendy Wu Tours

Celebrating 25 Years of tour excellence

The warm and friendly people of Costa Rica claim they live the ‘Pura Vida’ (pure life), and seeing as they live in the world’s first carbon-neutral nation, they are both literally and figuratively correct! The poster child for eco-tourism, Costa Rica holidays are all about unspoiled and pure nature. Blessed with both a Pacific and Caribbean coast, there are miles of spectacular beaches that frame a land of lofty mist-swathed volcanoes and tracts of lush, virgin rain- and cloud forests packed with all sorts of colourful and exotic creatures, all drenched in the balmy, tropical warmth. Yes, we fancy a slice of that ‘Pura Vida’ too…

Wildlife

With over 500,000 animal and plant species, Costa Rica is one of the most biodiverse countries in the world. With its lush rainforests and pristine beaches, Costa Rica is home to all sorts of wildlife, from toucans and macaws to sloths and monkeys. And if you’re lucky, you may spot a majestic jaguar or puma as you explore the country’s lush rainforests. Away from the sounds of the rainforest, Costa Rica’s coastlines are just as diverse with their thriving marine ecosystems.

Ecotourism

Ecotourism focuses on sustainable travel to natural areas that conserve the environment and support local communities. Costa Rica is a world leader in ecotourism and is committed to showing the world its most beautiful corners sustainably. Ecotourism activities are designed to be low impact, so pursuits like hiking, birdwatching and wildlife spotting are popular. Ecotourism in Costa Rica also aims to support the local communities by creating jobs through tourism.

Beaches

Costa Rica is home to some of the world’s most stunning beaches, which stretch for over 800 miles along the country’s Pacific and Caribbean coasts. The beaches of Manuel Antonia are some of the most beautiful spots in the country. Across the country, the wild beaches of Tortuguero have a more rugged feel and are teaming with incredible marine and bird life.

Booking Experience for Colours of Costa Rica
Always wanted to go to Costa Rica but other companies only went for approx 8 days and did not include most meals.
This tour with Wendy Wu was 14 days and went to all parts of the country.
Staff member, Lusanne was most helpful and was able to deal with my queries efficiently and and effectively.

Review for Colours of Costa Rica
Brilliant from start to finish. Our tour guide Carlos could not do enough for us, his enthusiasm and kindness really made the tour special. Every day was planned to include as much as possible without feeling rushed or that you were missing out on anything. We saw so much wildlife and beautiful scenery it was truly the trip of a. Lifetime. We saw sloths, monkeys, crocodiles, lizards, toucans, experienced the culture, tasted the delicious food and met so many wonderful people. I would definitely recommend this holiday. Pura vida!

Review for Colours of Costa Rica
Carlos, our guide was excellent. Enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the wild life. The driver, Mariano. and the relief we had for a day were both v good. Both also spotted wildlife and pulled over.
The activities arranged were all good. The night walk and the inflatable boat is particular were superb.
The3 days on the pacific coast were an anti-climax. The area is horribly built up, brash and American. We all found it a culture shock. I would much rather have remained somewhere more wild and remote

This was my 6th tour with Weny Wu and as usual we were looked after by the National and local guides from the beginning to the end of the tour..

Review for Colours of Costa Rica
This was our first tour with you and from start to finish we were guided by Isaac who made sure everything went smoothly. He was laid back - but on the ball - always available and very informative.

Review for Colours of Costa Rica
We thought the programme was very good and we explored quite a lot of Costa Rica. There was a nice combination of meals supplied and time to buy your own meals.
Isaac, our tour guide, was excellent. Very knowledgeable, with a good sense of humour who looked after us very well. Good organisation from Wendy Wu and friendly helpful staff when you ring.

Review for Colours of Costa Rica
We have been on two of their tours, are shortly to go on a third and have booked for a fourth next year. We can honestly say that everything is well organised from the initial booking with a friendly and helpful representative.The guides we had were excellent and the hotels well chosen. Thoroughly enjoyable experiences.

Review for COLOURS OF COSTA RICA
Service rating : Well organised in every way. Our extremely knowledgeable and pleasant guide Alex made our tour. Nothing was a problem to him. As 2 single ladies we felt safe and valued - thoroughly enjoying our Costa Rica adventure, despite the weather.
Product : Would never have seen so much or experienced Costa Rica as we did ,if we had chosen to plan this ourselves
