Natural Treasures
This country is renowned for its reputation of longevity among its people and their unwavering respect for the nation’s natural treasures. Costa Rica is also famed for its diverse and breathtaking landscapes, all condensed within a compact territory. It’s often said that seeing is believing, and we encourage you to hasten your journey to Costa Rica without delay! Beyond its pristine beaches, volcanoes, majestic peaks, underwater wonders, and tropical forests, Costa Rica stands out as a nation that has chosen to prioritize health and education over maintaining a military force. This emblematic choice speaks volumes about the Ticos (Costa Ricans) and their commitment to « Pura Vida. »
