Pure life from the Caribbean to the Pacific: departure from San José to the steaming cone and hot springs of Arenal Volcano, hanging bridges in the misty Monteverde Cloud Forest, sloths and monkeys in Manuel Antonio National Park, and surfing in Tamarindo.

Road legs weave through winding mountain passes and tropical coastlines, capturing the rugged adventure of Central America.
