Shore Excursions
Cruising into Costa Rica's Central Pacific coast? Vista Los Sueños runs shore excursions timed to your ship's schedule from both Puerto Caldera, about 60 minutes away, and Puntarenas, about 90 minutes away. Every excursion is built around our 12-platform, 10-cable zipline canopy tour and pairs it with a second activity: ATV jungle riding, horseback riding, or the chocolate and cacao tasting, so you get two experiences in one shore day. Along the way, most itineraries stop at the Tarcoles Crocodile Bridge to see wild crocodiles in the river below, and every tour includes a buffet lunch with drink refills and dessert at our on-site restaurant. Port pickup and drop-off are included, guides are bilingual and certified, and the schedule is planned around a guaranteed on-time return to your ship, so you're not watching the clock all day. Excursions run about 7 hours door to door, and special group rates apply for cruise crew members. Vista Los Sueños has welcomed cruise passengers since 2008 and holds a 4.9-star rating from more than 4,641 TripAdvisor reviews. If your ship docks at Caldera or Puntarenas, this is the easiest way to see the rainforest and be back on board on time.
