Family vacations in Costa Rica

Parents’ main concern on a family vacation in Costa Rica will be the children nagging them to come back. With expert, English-speaking guides, well maintained trails and widespread WiFi, Costa Rica is more fun than fuss. Younger families will be well looked after in Tortuguero and Monteverde, while older kids will thrive on the rafting, zip lining, hiking and tubing, all graded by age and ability. If you do want to escape the crowds, head for the wilder regions – with comfortable lodges but fewer visitors.
