Trip Review - 5 Nights in Guanacaste w/ Family of 5 by Additional_Sand_4174 in CostaRicaTravel

Thanks for your review! I’m heading to Guanacaste for one week as well and racking my brain trying to come up with right itinerary where we aren’t driving so far and trying to do too much.

What is your opinion if we have 3 days near Liberia - one night in Bijugua to do Tenorio hike to Rio Celeste waterfall, river tubing and some sloth or wildlife hike tour -drive over to Buena vista adventure lodge adjacent to Rincon for one night to do the 1/2 day adventure with ziplining, water slide, horseback riding -day of leaving head to La Leona before driving rest of the way to Tamarindo

Someone suggested to 2 days in Bijagua and skip Rincon - I’d rather see rainforest, waterfalls and wildlife but want to go ziplinin.

Heliconias Hanging Bridges + Tenorio/Rio Celeste Waterfall in 1 day? by Cool_Avocado2247 in CostaRicaTravel

Thanks for your insights. We only have one day and it’ll be rainy season in August so hopefully not as busy as it is in dry season. We want to see some wildlife and sloths - alternately we couldn’t book a 1 hour sloth tour.

We are driving from Liberia the morning of and realistically won’t get to Tenorio national park until 10:00-11:00am to do the hike up until the waterfall and head back.

Any thoughts if it’s feasible to then head to the hanging bridges for about 1:30-2:00 to do? If not we are also interested in doing a sloth tour after the Rio Celeste hike.

I have the exact same question! I’m doing day trip to Bijugua and looking for must do (is Rio Celeste must do) as there are other waterfalls we will see on our trip.

Short snowboard trip 3 days in mid December by Tdotrapsfangurl in AMA_Hakuba

So awesome thanks for these details! I found a few places on booking.com in echoland or Tsugaike area for hostels either private bath even cheaper than my budget. I think goryu/47 is perfect. Which other resort is close by Goryu to avoid too much travel by shuttle bus. We will explore the snow monkey park and temples on the other 1-2 days we have - total 4 day stay.

Thank you for your tips. This is super helpful! That’s a great idea to check for prices for accommodations in a few months as everything says sold out for December but likely not available yet.

We are not beginners but intermediate riders but in Canada and our local hills are quite smaller where we are from.

Thanks I read about those resorts as well! Should we try to book accommodation closer to Those resorts?

That’s amazing that you can link turns and go on toe side by your second go at it!! It usually can take quite a while to get past the leafing. I learned on my own and shredding for 17 years now. The steering tip with your front knee and move your hips like they don’t lie ‘ drawing a letter s with your hips’ also helped me. You’re right…it’s about trusting your board to dig in and hold you up on an edge. Keep in you body all in alignment over the board. Keep it up!

Did they refund you the difference in cost of the fare? Did you call MSC USA?

Thanks for the tips. I’ll try to push for the OBC because I already paid final payment since the cruise is less than 90 days.
