Rainforest Adventure Booze Cruise
Hop on board the Rainforest Adventure Safari 4x4 with your bilingual guide and trusted designated driver. Equipped with a case of refreshing Costa Rican beer (4 beers per person), we're all set to lead you on an off-the-beaten-path adventure rarely explored by visitors. With your friends or family by your side, relax and take in the beauty of Costa Rica's back country as it unfolds before your eyes.
The true essence of Costa Rica lies in its charming mountain villages and warm-hearted locals. On your Jungle Booze Cruise, we'll take you on a journey to one of the many authentic saloons nestled in rural mountain communities (locations and routes vary based on road/trail conditions).
On this laid-back, cultural journey, you will pass through several hidden local spots.
Your Adventure Begins
No need to worry about the driving, your bilingual guide will transport you safely through the backcountry roads, rivers and mountains on this fantastic journey.
The Jungle Booze Cruise departs from the Adventure Tours Costa Rica office in Jaco, with local pickup included. For those staying in the nearby towns of Los Suenos or Playa Hermosa, transportation is conveniently available for a small additional fee. Once aboard our specialty 4x4 vehicle, your journey begins as we take off through the beautiful Costa Rican countryside, winding through rainforest roads and passing by a scenic river and picturesque farmlands. If accessible, we’ll make a quick pit stop at a local riverside bar where you can enjoy a refreshing dip in the warm waters of Rio Turrubares. From there, can head back to the trail and make our way further up the rainforest mountains.
Relaxing with Rolly
During your adventure, we always try to pass through the rural pueblos of Angostura, Pavones, Montelimar and San Gabriel, to name a few - each with its own unique rustic allure. Enjoy a glimpse at a simpler way of life, marked by stoic churches and old world charm. Rural life in the rainforest mountains of Costa Rica offers an opportunity to see a more simple life where simple values rule. There’s never a hurry here, just a peaceful calm that you can’t help but feel a part of as you take in the local sights and sounds.
In the small town of Las Delicias, there is a well-loved local watering hole famous for its most charming customer - a gorgeous blue macaw named Rolly. Snap some pictures and have a delicious authentic Costa Rican shot on the house. If you’re hungry, try the mouthwateringly fresh river shrimp and ceviche before you head out. Though not included, it is certainly worth the humble purchase price.
Around every turn are staggering views of streams, mountains and vibrant green pastures. Not far fro Las Delicias is the town of Bijagual, the home of the only bullfighting arena in the region, a beautiful town soccer field, and another authentic bar - the only one in town! The friendly staff there is always happy to make you a delicious cocktail should you decide to purchase one.
Lunch in the Mountains
Along the way we will treat you to a delicious, authentic Costa Rican meal. You will want to savor the unbelievable views of the Nicoya Peninsula, the Pacific Ocean, and breathtaking mountain vistas that can be enjoyed from the ride alog the way.
Following lunch, we will begin our descent as we wind down 2000 feet from the mountaintop to the Adventure Tours Costa Rica office, passing a gorgeous little waterfall and beautiful rainforests along the way. The Jungle Booze Cruise is an incredibly unique experience that you and yours will not soon forget.
