WHAT YOU VISIT:
Veragua Rainforest: Uncover the splendor of the Veragua Rainforest, the ultimate research and eco-adventure park that National Geographic Traveler called "The Cream of the Cream of the Rainforest". Home to 585 butterfly, 808 beetle, 100 mammal, 80 reptile, 68 amphibian, and 400 bird species, Veragua is the best way to experience the wonders of the Costa Rican rainforest.

Sky Gondola: Glide through the treetops on the Sky Gondola as your expert guide points out the spectacular wildlife that makes this one of the most biodiverse locales on the planet. Keep your camera ready for howler monkeys, sloths, toucans, and parrots!

Nature Trails: Take an easy walk on the Trail of the Giants along the riverbank or choose a challenging path to the 65-foot cascading Puma Waterfall. Your guide will teach you about frogs and insects you're likely to encounter.

Reptile Exhibit: Walk through a live reptile exhibit, learning about snakes and lizards native to the region.

Frog Exhibit: Enjoy an educational frog exhibit, where you'll see frogs in environments replicating their habitats. Marvel at large bullfrogs, red-eye tree frogs, and mesmerizing, tiny frogs smaller than a fingernail.

Butterfly Garden: Explore one of Costa Rica's largest Butterfly Gardens, enchanted by hundreds of colorful butterflies flying around you including the famous blue morpho. Expand your knowledge at the Butterfly Laboratory.

Foundation for Rainforest Research: Gain insight into conservation efforts in a short presentation by a biologist and rainforest researcher. Three new species have been discovered here, and Foundation staff are engaged in important species monitoring. Your ticket contributes to research conducted in partnership with the University of Costa Rica!

SNACK:
Tropical Snack: As part of this tour, enjoy a seasonal fruit snack, a sandwich, and tropical juice or purified water at the Rainforest Cafe.

SHOPPING:
Gift Shop: Enjoy free time in one of the region's finest gift shops, offering a diverse selection of souvenirs, locally crafted items, and exclusive merchandise reflecting Costa Rican culture. Choose from coffee, chocolate, t-shirts, hats, art, and more. Importantly, 100% of the park's gift shop profits support the Foundation's rainforest research!
