"Oliver couldn’t have been more helpful - we had a very specific, and not totally simple, brief and timeline. Oliver’s experience in the area was very clear and he created a fantastic itinerary for us. As to the trip itself - it was totally magical. The quality of the concierge and tour guides was top notch - the latter was a big part of the trip (we went on numerous tours) and added hugely to the success of the trip. Activities were spot on for our boys. Best were humpback whale watching for us, zip-lining for the boys! Family rooms and suites were great too, so we could all be together. The modem was a great touch and very useful. The app - and all the information within it - was also great. Victor the Concierge was wonderful - from providing us with local currency so we could use a toll bridge as we left San Jose, to sending us regular route updates and restaurant recommendations. Lounge access is always a fab touch! And the meet and greet takes away all the stress of trying to work out logistics when arriving somewhere new. Both add to the feeling of R&R. All in all, Original Travel were superb!"

What can you expect on Costa Rica multi-generation holidays that you won’t find anywhere else?

Quality family time is the order of the day during Costa Rica multi-generation holidays, so we’ll make sure your itinerary is packed full of activities that appeal to every age group. For animal-obsessed youngsters, Costa Rica’s cloud forests and national parks boast more than their fair share of intriguing wildlife and curious critters, which can be seen during walks with naturalist guides. Teens in search of the full Tarzan experience can strap into a zipline and soar through the rainforest canopy, while the whole family can try their hand at whipping up some traditional Costa Rican dishes. Thrill-seekers will relish the chance to white water raft down the Pacuare River and wave-riders can harness the swells of the Pacific coast beaches. If laid-back days are more your speed, we can schedule in yoga classes and spa treatments for some well-earned relaxation. Evenings can be spent eating dinner together and reminiscing on your day, for that all important time as an extended family during Costa Rica multi-generation holidays.


Special things to do during Costa Rica multi-generation holidays:

- Take a private Sky Tram through the canopy of Arenal National Park to see the abundant flora and fauna from a bird’s eye view.
- Raft together down the rapids of the Balsa River with an experienced guide, past scenic forests and resident wildlife.
- Learn about Costa Rica’s unrivalled eco-credentials at the Asis Project, a wildlife conservation centre that rescues and rehabilitates wild animals.
- Stay in an eco lodge on the shores of Culebra Bay, where you can enjoy some uninterrupted beach time and try any water sports that take your fancy.
- Tour Palo Verde National Park with an expert guide, for glimpses of myriad birdlife, monkeys, coatis and deer.
- See equally wonderful creatures while diving and snorkelling in the azure waters off the Gulf of Papagayo.


Best time for Costa Rica multi-generation holidays:

The best time for Costa Rica multi-generation holidays really depends on the things you wish to see and do. Beachside lounging and water-based pursuits are well-suited to the country’s dry season, which takes place between December and April each year; warm climes and sunny skies provide the perfect backdrop for swimming, sailing, snorkelling and surfing. While the rainy season (April to November) may sound less inviting, this is actually the lushest time of year and the best time to see Costa Rica’s resplendent plant life; if a member of your clan is a budding botanist, you may wish to consider travelling during these months.
