If you only have a short time in Costa Rica, this half day tour to Irazu Volcano is the perfect choice for you. Departing San Jose early in the morning, we will head straight to the spectacular summit of Costa Rica´s Irazu Volcano, the highest active volcano in Costa Rica. At the summit, you can peer down into the mystical green lagoon or take in the extraordinary views. If the day is clear, look west to see the Pacific Ocean and east to see the Atlantic...both from the same vantage point!
