Poas Volcano National Park Day Trip

We'll pick you up from your hotel in San José at 6:30 am and set off on the Pan-American Highway to the Poas Volcano National Park.

Before entering this natural oasis, we'll pass through the city of Alajuela, where we'll go on a panoramic route to see the Monument to Agriculture, the Monument to San Juan Santamaría and the famous Mango Park.

Next, we'll have a delicious breakfast consisting of gallo pinto with egg, cheese and ripe plantain, yucca chorriada, tortilla aliñada and gallos with meat, cheese and picadillo - a very traditional meal! 

Then, we'll leave this city behind to go marvel at one of the most spectacular natural areas in Costa Rica. Before we head to the crater of the volcano, we'll go for a walk and discover the extensive coffee plantations and farms full of ferns, flowers, strawberries and much more!

As we head up the side of the volcano, we'll start to notice the change in temperature! When we reach the viewpoint, we'll admire the impressive mile-wide crater below.

At the end of the trip, we'll head back to the minibus and drop you off at your hotel in San José at 1 pm.
