Exciting and Safe

When you travel with Pura Vida we take your enjoyment, comfort, and safety very seriously. We will help you to choose trips that match your families interest and abilities.

 Off the Beaten Path

If traveling to crowded tourist destinations is not your idea of fun, we offer “alternative” excursions, off-the-beaten-path, where you can experience Costa Rica at its wildest and purest. We know some of the “secret” places, frequented by Costa Rican residents, completely off the radar screen!
