Melissa & Jason

This thrilling four-wheel-drive journey will take us where breathtaking landscapes and traditional culture are just waiting to be discovered! We will experience the spectacular scenery, lives of rural Costa Ricans that have barely changed over the years, secluded soft silver-sand beaches, exotic flora and fauna and many quaint little villages. Sounds like honeymoon fun!

On our all-day tour we will be setting out to the open sea, having the chance to visit a burial grounds of the Pre-Columbian tribes, snorkel or scuba dive at a world-renowned diving hot spot. We will see many magnificent corals of a thousand colors, brilliantly colored fish and maybe even some friendly and fun-loving dolphins!

This Canopy Tour will be an amazing, unforgettable experience! We'll fly through the tree tops of the Monteverde Could Forest on steel cables. We'll experience the various levels of the canopy as we glide and swing from tree to tree. Watch out Tarzan!

Our tour begins with a hiking trip through a tropical humid forest, passing bridges and spectacular scenery, to the Fortuna Waterfall with amazing swimming holes. After our honeymoon lunch at "Lava Rocks Restaurant" we will make our way to tour the Arenal Volcano. As we walk up the lava flows and watch the sunset we'll await the darkness to see and hear glowing rocks of lava tumbling down the side of the mountain, then it's time for a relaxing soak in the warmed mineral waters of Tabacon Resort and a romantic honeymoon dinner for two!

We'll take an adventurous ride up in the mountains and hike through the amazing rainforest. We'll enjoy dazzling rivers and cool off under a spectacular waterfall.

We will take advantage of the beautiful ocean after a short drive to a secluded silver sand beach where we will kayak along the coastline, watching exotic birds. Landing on a deserted beach, we will have the opportunity to snorkel, exploring the reefs and tropical and brilliantly colored fish. We can't wait!

We'll let an experienced guide take us on a hike through Manuel Antonio National Park so we don't get lost! Visiting two pristine, sun-kissed white-sand beaches, Espadilla Sur and Manuel Antonio learning about local plant life, pointing out some of the subsiding fauna such as capuchin, squirrel monkeys, agouti and the three-toed sloth along with 184 species of birds. A honeymoon adventure we will always remember!

This rafting experience will leave us exhilarated and stunned with its beautiful verdant jungle gorge, palm plantations, and nearby farmlands. We will hopefully stay afloat down the Naranjo River, as we witness the scenes of natural beauty, the tropical flora and fauna and its history. A truly wild ride!

With your wedding gift, we will tour through the Pan-American heading to Alajuela, visiting the agriculture monument, the Juan Santa Maria statue and the famous Mangos Park. We will take a stop at the coffee fields, a fern farm, strawberry plantations, and flower farms. Continuing onto the Caribbean area we will discover the La Paz Waterfall Gardens where we will hike trails, witness the largest enclosed butterfly observatory and a hummingbird gallery full of tropical jewels. We even have time to sit down and enjoy a romantic buffet lunch, Costa Rican style!

We are excited to go kayaking along the coast where we will witness the most breathtaking scenery, tropical forests, colorful and brilliant reefs, serene silver sand beaches and exotic flora and fauna. We will arrive on Playa 5 Ventanas Beach, and enjoy ourselves as we sip on tropical drinks and local exotic fruits, and still have some time for surfing!

Exploring the Monteverde Cloud Forest, seeing our tropical surroundings from a bird's eye view as we swing from platform to platform in a safe and easy manner among the treetops. We will hike trails across deep canyons and get the scoop on the local flora and fauna. A lovely wedding gift, for us lovely honeymooners!

We will appreciate refreshing ocean waters while learning the ancient skill and art of surfing. Our experienced Instructors are excellent teachers and are committed to perpetuating the heritage of surfing. Surfs up!

We'll need a spa day just to ourselves! We will sit back, relax and indulge in a rejuvenating and revitalizing spa treatment or massage to help soothe our tense muscles and to help us get back in the groove.

We'll toast to our lives together as we uncork the effervescence of a bottle of champagne. Cheers!

We will experience the special indulgence of a couple's massage lying side-by-side being pampered with exotic oils that hydrate the skin, rejuvenate senses, and leave us refreshed and revitalized. We want to reserve our spa treatments early for this ultimate spa experience!

Spoil him with lubricants and moisturizers that take him to a new level of shaving. After the hot towels are applied to soften his skin, a close shave leaves him smooth, healthy and looking good.

The nails have to look good to show off my beautiful wedding ring.

I will be pampered with a foot facial, foot cleansing, foot scrub, masque and moisturizing massage of lower legs and feet. This is a pure delight for my soles and soul!
