What's included

As specified in the above itinerary, arrival, lodging, transportation within Costa Rica, meals [B=breakfast, L=lunch, D=dinner], specified entrance fees to National Parks & Private Reserves, bilingual naturalist licensed guide services, ground operator support within Costa Rica 24/7, and taxes

What's not included

International airfare, airport departure taxes, meals not specified in the itinerary, alcoholic beverages, personal equipment, extras in hotels (laundry, phone calls, and room service), gratuities, or costs associated with changes in your itinerary for reasons beyond our control.

NOTE: There is a 25 lb. per person baggage weight limit for transportation on domestic airline flights and small boat trips within your itinerary (including all carry-on and stowable luggage). The airline and boat operators enforce these limitations on your checked baggage for safety reasons. To comply with these requirements, we suggest that you repack only the items needed for the portion of your itinerary that includes these modes of transportation, and leave other items behind in storage. If you are returning to the same San José area hotel, simply request to store your excess luggage at the hotel. If you are not returning to the same hotel, give your extra baggage to your transfer driver to be stored by your ground operator. Request that your luggage be brought to you upon your pick up and return transfer from the plane or boat portion of your trip. Please ask your driver/guide in Costa Rica if you have any additional questions regarding this policy.

ARRIVAL SERVICE: For all arrival transfers after clearing customs please remind guests to use the exit on the right hand side. Our representative is not allowed to go inside the terminal, therefore, he will be waiting for them outside this right hand exit. Our guide will be properly identified with Sun Tours t-shirt and acrylic board with the guests name on it.

The Airport service that we hire is called CANATUR and they usually meet clients at the bottom of the electric stairway after immigration but before customs. This is an additional service that we hire to help us locate our guests faster, however, guests must still locate our guide outside of the right hand exit of the terminal.
