What Our Clients Have To Say
We have had the opportunity to travel in Costa Rica with Pika and Walter for several years now. They have truly embraced our groups and make our students feel at home even when they are so far away. They have worked with us year after to create customized trips that provide unique experiences they would not get with anywhere else. Our students walk away with a new outlook having experienced true Pura Vida. We cannot recommend Herencia Verde enough!
As a teacher, I want my student groups to be able to experience the culture and wildlife of Costa Rica to their fullest. Our guide and bus driver play a significant role in the group's experience. Besides just being knowledgeable about the wildlife and history of Costa Rica, their spontaneity allow our trip to be truly special. From spotting sloths and toucans during the drive, to taking a certain route because students wanted to see a waterfall, to having inside jokes with my students, they make each trip a unique and unforgettable experience.
Enjoy Nicaragua wants to say Thanks deeply to Herencia Verde Costa Rica for all the high-quality services in every activity they provide to our groups. Thanks for those unique experiences that make the trip very special and unique. Thanks also for the Herencia Verde office's high efficiency for always been there and every time we need them to provide a fast and accurate answer and solution. It's a pleasure to keep working with Herencia Verde C. R.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Our itineraries are full of hands-on activities, including saving sea turtles, volunteering at a wildlife rescue center, working on a sustainable farm, and assisting at a scientific research center. We carefully select locally owned and operated projects focused on conservation and education— projects that truly matter to the local communities we visit.

Traveling with Herencia Verde will be life-changing!

Las Tortugas The Turtle Station

Cultural programs
To know the culture of Costa Rica is to know the people of Costa Rica, and Herencia Verde designs one-of-a-kind experiences that let you learn about how Costa Ricans live day-to-day. Experience the art and history of the Boruca, one of our indigenous communities. Wake up early with your homestay family to milk the cows. Learn about organic farming and taste fresh coffee or pineapple as you have never tasted before. As you travel the country, we will provide even more opportunities for you to engage with local residents: shop in the town square, talk with the fruit vendor along the roadside, and enjoy other real-life experiences with your guide!
Providencia de Dota
The small farming town of Providencia is located in the Cerro de la Muerte mountain region.
Boruca Indigenous Reserve
The Boruca are known for their vibrant, intricately carved and painted masks.
Indigenous BriBri Community
Besides the Boruca, the BriBri are one of the last remaining native populations of Costa Rica.
ACTIVITIES
Go on an adventure and learn while doing it! Herencia Verde always blends education with every activity. For instance, while whitewater rafting, you will learn about the exotic plant and animal life you will see, how rafting contributes to conservation, and why it is important to the planet. While on a canopy zip line tour, you will discover what happens high up in the rainforest treetops – it is where more than half of all rainforest life exists.
You can add these activities to any program that we offer. Have fun, and keep learning!
