Corcovado Tour, Three day Overnight Options

From Drake Bay, Puerto Jiménez, or Sierpe

How does this section work?

Here we present you with three-day tour options from Drake Bay, Puerto Jimenez, and Sierpe. Just keep scrolling down until you find the option you are looking for.

Important Information!

  • We do not have a booking engine because no company is allowed to have spaces stored to sell. We have the right to 10 spaces, but we do not get them until we request the spaces with the information of the travelers. This means that the reservation will include your information and will be available only to you; once paid, it cannot be changed. Once we get the reservation, we have 24 hours to pay for the spots.
  • If your goal is clear when you send us an email, you can add the full name and passport number of each member of your group interested in going to Corcovado National Park. Otherwise, you can ask for more information by sending us an email or a WhatsApp message.
  • Your information will only be used for booking purposes, make sure it is the right one because they double-check at the entrance of the station, if the information does not match, you will be sent back, losing your money.
  • Corcovado National Park takes wildlife conservation very seriously. Therefore, the spaces are limited. It is common to see the park getting fully booked many months in advance, so we recommend trying to book with all the time in advance you can.

  • The timings might not be accurate since we are working in the wild and the weather conditions change, affecting the speed of the boat or the Colectivo service in case you are doing part of the tour on land. The weather conditions can not only impact the timing but how the boat behaves, the boat ride might get very bumpy too. In the case of the Colectivo, the road is not paved, so expect some rivers and holes in the road. 
  • The weather can also modify the timings during the walks.
  • Mention when booking if there is someone in the group who is pregnant, to give them a seat in the back of the boat (even if you are booking a trip by car).

  • It is completely prohibited to bring any type of sharp weapon or any other type of weapon into Corcovado National Park. The park rangers are going to proceed to confiscate any type of weapon.

A Corcovado Tour for two nights and three days is focused on wildlife observation, photography, and information about the flora and fauna of the area. Part of this tour is done in the ocean, home to several species of dolphin and seasonal whales. The beautiful coastline is part of the tour and seabirds.

Sirena is the station with more wildlife in Corcovado National Park, and therefore we have chances to see tapirs, two species of wild pig, one species of deer, several species of rodents, two species of anteater, four species of monkey, caimans, crocodiles, birds, reptiles, and arthropods.

There are six feline species in Costa Rica, and Corcovado reports four of them so far, however, a cat sight is a rare event, and the ones that are occasionally seen are pumas, and ocelots are seen in fewer opportunities.

With all this, it is extremely necessary to mention that wildlife is unpredictable and that we do not guarantee any specific sighting.
