RINCÓN DE LA VIEJA NATIONAL PARK
La Victoria Waterfall is a place for the adventurous ones. It is accessed through a steep trail. When it reaches the Colorado River, there is an 115feet/ 35 meter high waterfall. The canyon surrounding the area has a different vegetation and depth. It is located 1.8miles/3 km. from Hacienda Guachipelín.
At the foot of the Victoria waterfall we’ll have a short briefing about security before we begin our canyoning adventure. To move yourself by cable, experience the effects of the swing going through the Victoria waterfall, jumping in to the pool while rappelling, and as desert climbing the wall of the cascade. After this great tour ends we’ll get changed again and let the bus take us back to the Hacienda.

NOSARA
Defined by its worries-by-the-wayside attitude and shorelines untainted by commercialism, Nosara is a small town famous for its yoga and surf.
Many people know it as "No shoes, no shirt, Nosara," which aptly sums things up. Located on the Pacific coast of Costa Rica in the Guanacaste region, the traditional village of Nosara sits six kilometers inland, although the beaches attract the biggest draw.
For decades, Nosara has been protected by the national park system, in addition to longstanding efforts of local citizens to ensure that this unspoiled forest and beach destination remains as such.
Thanks to local restrictions that only allow small-scale developments, this skyline is dominated by gorgeous sunsets that drift ceaselessly into the ocean.
Nosara has three different beaches: Playa Guiones, Playa Nosara and Playa Pelada. It goes without saying, but sunsets are a must.
INCLUDED
- Breakfast.
- Private land transfer service to Nosara, Guanacaste.
- Overnight at Olas Verdes Hotel.
EXCLUDED

- Meals or services not specified in program.
