Costa Rica is Central America’s jewel, an eco-paradise where wildlife, rainforest, volcanoes and beaches all come together in one unforgettable trip. With 124 national parks and more species per square foot than anywhere else in the world, it is a nature-lover’s dream. A multi centre holiday is the best way to experience Costa Rica’s contrasts — from cloud forests and volcanic peaks to surf-friendly beaches and wildlife-rich jungles. Whether you want adventure, relaxation or both, we can help you combine the country’s highlights into one seamless itinerary. Browse our inspirational trips below, or speak to us about tailoring one just for you.
Costa Rica is packed with variety, but travelling between its highlights can take time, with winding roads and longer distances between regions. A multi centre holiday is the best way to make the most of your trip, letting you combine cloud forests, volcanoes, rainforests, and beaches in one seamless adventure. The country is easy to explore as a road trip, but if you would rather not drive, transfers can link each stop for a stress-free experience. Some journeys can even be done by flight, helping you cover more ground in less time. However you travel, a multi centre holiday ensures you see the very best of Costa Rica.
Costa Rica is brimming with natural wonders and unique experiences. In Arenal you can hike around the famous volcano or soak in natural hot springs. Monteverde offers cloud forests filled with hanging bridges, orchids and hummingbirds, while Tortuguero is best explored by boat through its jungle canals, home to monkeys, sloths and nesting turtles. On the Pacific coast, Manuel Antonio National Park combines rainforest trails with golden beaches, while Guanacaste is known for surfing, snorkelling and long stretches of sand. For a cultural touch, visit San José’s museums and markets, or head to the Caribbean side for Afro-Caribbean culture and laid-back charm.
Costa Rica’s dry season runs from December to April, making it the most popular time for sunshine and beach days. The green season, from May to November, brings tropical showers but also lush landscapes, fewer crowds and better value. As weather can vary between the Pacific and Caribbean coasts, contact us and we can help tailor the best itinerary for when you want to travel.
Costa Rica has stunning beaches on both its Pacific and Caribbean coasts. The Pacific side is the most popular, with Tamarindo and Manuel Antonio offering golden sands, surfing and lively towns. Guanacaste is known for long stretches of sand and excellent all-inclusive resorts. On the Caribbean side, the palm-fringed beaches of Puerto Viejo and Cahuita offer a more authentic local experience.

We travelled with eShores to Andalucia last year, and Emily did an amazing job of compiling an itinerary with good but affordable hotels - we would heartily recommend each one that she chose for us, and all the arrangements between cities worked beautifully. This year we have gone back to her for another holiday and…
This is my second holiday with eshore. The service I received was excellent. Kelly was very professional, understood all my requirements and booked a fantastic holiday for us. It was a very pleasant experience dealing with Kelly and definitely recommend friends to book holidays with her. A real 5 star service.
As always, our go-to girl came through with a fab itinerary for our very last minute booking to USA. Kadie arranged another 3 city break and made sure everything fitted in with our requirements. Always use eShores for our bespoke long distance travels and they never fail to provide excellent service.
eShores is a fantastic company for crafting tailor made itineraries. I have just booked my fourth trip with them, this time to Colombia. Gavin was exceptionally helpful and nothing was too much trouble in meeting my wishes even though it requred a lot of back and forth adjustments. If this is anything like my previous…
Matt Got us everything we wanted for our USA trip
I have yet to take the holiday so I can't comment on the hotels and transport provided etc but Nick was very helpful with the booking. Despite me asking numerous questions he sorted out exactly what I asked for within my budget. Thank you
So far our experience with eShores has been great. Of course the real test will be when we are on holiday so hopefully this will continue :)
Nick did exactly what I asked for, was prompt and helpful. Couldn't have asked for anything more.
We had been recommended eshores by a friend who had holidayed in Croatia. We phoned and then used email to communicate with Chris Eaves who made the whole process very easy. He adjusted the holiday to exactly how we wanted it and was very speedy in his replies. We are hoping the holiday goes as…
The trip has been planned with our requirements fulfilled and also given options to change where we wanted. Looking forward to the trip and hope that all goes as smoothly as the booking side
So this is my second time using eshores and I won’t be going anywhere else to book my future holidays. I gave Claire a horrible job in finding what I needed and kept changing the brief but she persevered and found me the best holiday. I’m going in September and can’t wait. I’ll be back…
Excellent prompt service from Michelle. Hotels she suggested all look amazing and the itinerary for the four areas of Italy looked perfectly planned .
Nick was very understanding in as much as we did flex the itinerary quite a bit before booking and we have a holiday package which more than meets our needs.
Great and friendly customer service from Andy, as before. Andy always goes out of his way to find a holiday that matches our requirements.
Excellent service again from Dave. Having booked with e shores on a number of occasions they now understand our parameters. Price, days types of hotels etc.
Having dealt with eShores for several years, and with Dave Felton in particular, the latest holiday arranged by the Company was done smoothly, professionally and to our total satisfaction. Well done and keep up the great service.
Talked with Dave asking for assistance to finf flights for my sister and injured niece from Edinburgh to Perth in W.A. avoiding the Middle East. Dave again came up trumps with flights to suit and at a good price. First class service much appreciated.
Our holiday with Eshores was excellent. Hannah went above and beyond getting us exactly what we wanted and suited us. We couldn’t recommend them enough. The holiday was excellent and all the hotels (this was a multi centre holiday) were well situated particularly the Aston Kona by the sea on The Big Island it truly…
Quick and easy to contact and arrange a basic holiday in Europe. Good price too.
Greek island hopping sorted to perfection. Anna listened to everything I wanted and came up with a detailed plan which exceeded all my expectations. Every island on my to do list and with a choice of hotels. Thank you Anna.
