Alajuela, Costa Rica
DESTINATIONS IN COSTA RICA

San Jose Airport (SJO)


Alajuela is a small city located just outside of Costa Rica's capital city, San Jose. It is home to Costa Rica's largest airport, Juan Santamaría International, and the starting point of many people's vacations. While there are many nice hotels and restaurants to visit, most visitors choose to explore them on their arrival or departure days, and choose to spend a majority of their time in Costa Rica enjoying more natural locations outside of the metropolitan area.

San Jose and the Central Valley


San Jose is the capital city and largest metropolitan area in Costa Rica. In the city center, there are a variety of museums and city tours offered, and also many hotels and restaurants to enjoy. One important thing to note: while called the San Jose airport, SJO is actually located 30 minutes from the city-center in the adjacent city of Alajuela. If you are just looking for somewhere to stay on your way into or out of the country, try looking in Alajuela for a hotel that is closer to the airport.

Puerto Viejo de Sarapiqui holds a special place in our hearts, as it is where we were first going out on rafting excursions thirty years ago before we started this company. Sarapiqui offers incredible class II-IV rapids, and whether you are an experienced rafter or have always wanted to try, come to Saraqpiqui and see the region that made us first fall in love with this country. Beyond rafting, Sarapiqui offers many amazing hikes through the forest, perfect for birdwatching and wildlife spotting.
