What people say

"The most popular falls around the country are usually home to one main waterfall, and maybe a few other small cascades or pools. But the privately owned complex of the Blue Falls is home to not one, not two, but six separate blue waterfalls! If you want to get technical there are actually more like seven or eight falls, but the sights are clustered into six different attractions. The Blue Falls of Costa Rica, and all the waterfalls in Bajos del Toro, are best visited with your own rental car. There is very limited public transport around the region, and even if you were able to reach Bajos del Toro via bus, it would be near impossible to move between the waterfalls. If you just want to visit the Blue Falls of Costa Rica, the entrance fee is $15 USD per person. However, I would highly recommend going for the combo option with Catarata del Toro, which is $25 USD per person."
"Two waterfalls with a sky blue color - Requires a 30 minute hike down, must go with a guide - Two options for visiting. They have the short blue falls which goes to the two main waterfalls and one pool, no reservations required and the full falls tour which requires reservations and is all day - Great for hiking lovers, don't need to be in super great shape but must be in decent shape and be able to walk on rocks, down steep steps and across rivers "

"The biggest highlight of our trip! Bring your camera for this one, and if you have it, a waterproof bag. Wear water shoes or non-slip shoes as the trails were very muddy. The trails can seem quite confusing so follow your guide and carefully watch your step. In total, there is about 6km of trails to see every waterfall. They're all so different so we highly recommend checking out them all!"

This 10 day itinerary and adventure guide to Costa Rica is the result of over 1 month spent exploring the country, dozens of hours of planning, and my in-person experience. It covers 3 regions of Costa Rica: La Fortuna, Santa Teresa, and Dominical/Uvita. These areas include a variety of waterfalls, hot springs, hikes, wildlife, beaches and much more which is why I decided to focus on these 3 specifically! The guide includes an fun features such as an interactive map, directions that connect directly to your phone’s Google or Apple Maps app, and the exact coordinates to some of my favorite hidden gems & activities. It lays out instructions to help you plan your perfect trip to this area including over 35 accommodation suggestions plus where I stayed myself, 13 waterfall locations, 4 hot springs experiences, 4 hiking destinations, 7 beautiful beaches, boat tours & island day trips, direct links to every resource you could need, exclusive photos and videos from me, and so much more! It’s mobile friendly when you download the Thatch App for free so you can easily access all of the info right from your phone! While the guide is laid out in a 10-day trip itinerary format, its designed to allow you the flexibility to pick what order you’d like to travel to each destination and choose what you want to do each day. It can easily be adjust for a shorter trip! I have hand-crafted this guide specifically for adventure travelers (like me!) and feel so confident you will have an amazing trip with this guide by your side 😏 As a part of your purchase of the guide, here are a few promises I can make you: 1. This is a LIVING guide: I will update it as I find more information and discover more places which means you have lifetime access to all updated information as it’s added! 2. I only make guides based on areas I have not only been to but know well! I have spent over 4 weeks exploring Costa Rica in order to narrow down the destinations & experiences I share in this guide. I include both activities that I have done myself as well as those that are on my bucketlist for next time I visit! I will always call out the ones I have not done yet and provide you the exact resources you need to experience them yourself! 3. These guides are completely transparent! You can be sure that all unfiltered opinions I provide are my own 🙃 If I include any sponsored information or affiliate links, I will be sure to call these out directly. I will only include these if they benefit you (such as a discount code or coupon!) Finally, this is the first time that I am releasing one of my photo presets!!! The preset comes for free included with this guide so you can edit all of your trip photos with that Costa Rica vibe - think rich blues, deep forest greens, and just a touch of grain. These are exclusively for my travel guides as I do not nor have I ever sold them anywhere else! This guide truly is everything you need to plan your entire trip all in one place.
