A tour of San José follows ahead of a journey, through Braulio Carrillo National Park's woodland, to the Atlantic Coast. An immersive eco-lodge stay in Pachira Lodge, set in the heart of coastal Tortuguero, offers opportunities to engage with local communities and learn about the nation's conservation efforts with a visit to the Sea Turtle Conservancy Centre.
