Mom and Kid Trip – Costa Rica

Join our Sea to Rainforest Adventure.

June 8-15, 2024


I’m always thrilled to be hosting Mom and Kid Trips in beautiful Costa Rica. We’ll explore and play in the country’s Northwest Guanacaste region, once part of Nicaragua, this region is where the cultures of these two countries meet and share so much in common.   

We’ve planned comfortable spaces and immersive adventures that both moms and kids will love…think boating adventures, monkey & sloth sightings, volcano and waterfall exploring and more. We always make time for pool lounging for the moms, and beautiful sunsets with drinks while the kids play endlessly together.


The Highlights

  • Explore the food, culture, and lifestyle of one of the happiest and healthiest places as we travel and visit on the cusp of a Blue Zone.
  • Gaze on nature’s artistry along the vibrant blue waters of Rio Celeste, along with the emerald canopy surroundings and a symphony of exotic bird calls all around
  • Experience the wildlife in Costa Rica’s Amazing National Park system and get to know the wildlife of the area Iguanas! Sloths! Monkeys!…and more.
  • Enjoy the thermal pools and waterfall at Rincón de la Vieja National Park.
  • Relax in centralized accommodations while connecting with other travel moms who can relate to you and your desire to expose your little person to the world
  • Swing in a hammock while your child plays the day away at Hermosa Beach with travel companion pals. We spend a portion of our week just two blocks from one of Guanacaste’s prettiest beaches!
  • Traveling with a local expert you’ll learn about local people and traditions as well as the many connections this part of the country has with nearby Nicaragua.
  • You’ll be sure and get your hands dirty as you learn about Guatil pottery and an artist gives you a lesson at the pottery wheel!
