Nature and adventure can be found around every corner. For first time visitors, you might like what we call the Fire & Water package. We combine time near a volcano (fire), with time on the coast (water), to give you a well rounded first view of our country. We can focus a trip on nature, adventure, culture, romance, or all of the the above. With several volcanoes, over 300 beaches, and endless tour options, there are thousands of trip combinations to offer first timers and seasoned travelers alike.
We have a package to fit your travel style and budget.
Each trip is designed specifically for the traveler, each trip unique, just for you.
