7 Day Costa Rica Family Itineraries & Tours

Our trip was very enjoyable. The resorts that were selected were top-notch in all aspects – nice rooms, great restaurants, and very nice locations. The tours we went on were very nice. Our favorite tour was the hanging bridge tour in La Fortuna. The hot springs at the La Fortuna resort were amazing. Our only criticism was the travel day between the resort in La Fortuna and the resort in Manuel Antonio. We were picked up at 8am and didn’t arrive until 4.15pm. We did zipline on the way, but the eight-hour travel day was very long. We would have preferred to travel straight from one resort to the other as quickly as possible, with no stops.

Overall, the trip was fantastic. Zicasso's travel agency did a great job of planning our itinerary and was very accessible during our trip. We loved Costa Rica.

We highly recommend this Zicasso travel partner. Our travel agent planned the perfect trip for our family – four adults and five kids. She listened, was flexible, and tailored the trip to our style. We are highly active. Having all the transfers and activities planned is the way to go. All you have to do is show up and the rest takes care of itself. 

We flew into Liberia and our transfer took us to La Fortuna for three nights. We did the hanging bridges, a Lake Arenal boat/volcano tour, canyoneering/whitewater rafting, and ziplining. The canyoneering/whitewater was our favorite. 

From there, we went to Rincón de la Vieja. Our agent booked us into family-friendly resorts. We only stayed two nights, but enjoyed a horseback ride to the waterfalls, the mud baths, thermal pools, and a massage. 

We booked our own airbnb in Nosara, but our agent arranged the transfers, a private rental car, and added tour input. All around, fantastic service. The app provided for the itinerary was perfect, as was the incredibly responsive service while we were in the country. My brother's flight arrival flight was canceled and the service team was immediately in contact with him to rearrange his transfer to the hotel.   I would use this travel company again in a heartbeat.

We had a great trip and Zicasso’s travel agent did a very good job of organizing a variety of activities to enable us to see Costa Rica in a thorough way, but in a short time. 

My only disappointment was the resort in La Fortuna. It was a great place, but we were placed in rooms a mile away from the restaurant, hot springs, and swimming pools. We had to call for a shuttle bus each time we wanted to get out of our rooms and that was frustrating, as well as preventing any spontaneous strolls or time outdoors enjoying the beautiful weather and scenery. We enjoyed all the other planned places and activities. 

I would suggest to our travel company that they include how long each planned activity is expected to last when they publish the itemized itinerary so clients can plan for meals, unscheduled time, and rest periods.

I highly recommend the travel company to other families traveling to Costa Rica! Pura vida!

We recently traveled to Costa Rica with two other couples, and using Zicasso's travel agency was one of the best decisions we made. From the very beginning, our agents were incredible. They helped us plan every detail of our trip and guided us every step of the way, even once we had arrived in Costa Rica.

They carefully listened to our preferences (even after we changed hotels and itineraries multiple times) and created an unforgettable itinerary that included stays in La Fortuna and Manuel Antonio. Every hotel, tour, and transfer was thoughtfully arranged. One day, we chose to skip our planned excursion so we could enjoy more time at our beautiful hotel and they had it canceled with no hassle at all.

What really set them apart was their exceptional personal touch. They greeted us at the airport in person, checked in with us regularly during the trip, and made sure we had everything we needed. Their attention to detail and commitment to making sure we had the best experience was truly impressive.

If you’re planning a trip to Costa Rica, I can’t recommend this agency highly enough. Professional, responsive, and genuinely caring, they made our vacation seamless and special from start to finish.
