3. Sloth and Wildlife Observation: As part of our ecological vision, we support a local family who has created conditions on their property for sloths to live in their natural state. It's super easy to see them up close, as there are several trees that are their food source but of low height. This is unique to the area, and it contributes to the conservation of these beautiful animals and local families.

Traditional Costa Rican Lunch: The tour includes a delicious traditional Costa Rican lunch, including typical elements of our table such as rice, beans, plantains, meat, fish, or chicken, and a variety of fresh salads.

About Liberia

Liberia, nicknamed the White City, is the whitewashed capital of Guanacaste in north-west Costa Rica, a ranching town near volcanoes and Pacific beaches.

Liberia is the main town of Guanacaste, the dry north-west of Costa Rica, and gets its nickname, the White City, from its whitewashed colonial houses and the white gravel once laid on its streets. Cattle ranching shaped the province and its cowboys, the sabaneros, still ride the open plains. Low houses and a simple town square give the centre a provincial feel, and the airport brings travellers into the whole region.
