From May 2016 holidaymakers to Costa Rica will be able to fly direct with British Airways dispensing with tedious changes in Houston (with United Airlines) or Madrid (with Iberia).

Independent tailor-made holiday specialist Chameleon Worldwide has a number of recommended itineraries to Costa Rica including the following…

New: Wild Costa Rica in style, 16 days from £4480 per person

This brand new itinerary is designed to provide a thorough introduction to all the highlights of Costa Rica whilst staying in excellent accommodation along the way.

The holiday costs from £4480 per person (two sharing) which includes direct flights with British Airways, private road transport, 14 nights’ B&B in superior accommodation, (plus four lunches and five dinners) and shared guided excursions.

Costa Rica’s Highlights, 11 days from £1780 per person

This itinerary gives an excellent introduction to Costa Rica taking in a number of its major highlights. The tour is totally flexible, allowing as much or as little activity as is preferred. Commencing in San Jose, the real highlights are in the countryside where you can tour coffee plantations, go rafting and see volcanoes to name just a few. The highly biodiverse Monteverde cloud forest, a few hours west of San Jose, can be explored by guided walks, canopy tours or horseback.

Also included is Arenal Volcano with its classic conical shape looming over the area. The final part of this holiday takes in Manuel Antonio - a popular beach destination and national park on the Pacific Coast. The holiday costs from £1780 pp (two sharing) which includes direct flights, a combination of shared and private transfers, nine nights’ B&B and guided excursions.

Nature & Wildlife, 14 days from £2600 per person

This itinerary has been created by the experts at Chameleon Worldwide to focus on the extraordinarily diverse flora and fauna that Costa Rica has to offer (including 10% of the entire planet’s butterfly population). All the best areas for wildlife will be visited including the Osa Peninsula and Tortuguero. You'll experience rainforest, cloud forest, mangroves on the Caribbean and wild Pacific beaches. Wildlife you might expect to see includes turtles, monkeys, caiman, many birds including the quetzal, and with luck maybe even the elusive jaguar.

The holiday costs from £2600 per person (two sharing) which includes direct flights, a combination of shared and private transfers, 12 nights’ B&B (plus four lunches and five dinners) and guided excursions.
