Irazú Volcano & Mineral Hot Springs Escorted Tour from San Jose

1. 1

   The tour will begin with us trekking south along the Panamerican Highway until we reach the base of the behemoth “Iztaru” (a name of an indigenous village that was situated on the flanks of the volcano, and a likely candidate as a possible origin for the current name of the Irazu Volcano). The winding road traverses fertile lands in which all types and forms of vegetation are cultivated, all the while affording us a spectacular panoramic view of the surrounding hills and valleys. And, at the very top of the summit, on a clear day, one can be privy to an unforgettable bird’s eye view of both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

   Your journey continues through the Orosi Valley, one of Costa Rica’s most scenic and tranquil regions, surrounded by lush green mountains and sweeping views of the Turrialba and Irazú Volcanoes. Your final destination, Hacienda Orosi, is a beautiful countryside estate offering an authentic Costa Rican experience. Explore its coffee plantations, working farm, and nature trails, and enjoy some of the region’s best birdwatching opportunities. At the Hacienda Orosi Hot Springs, relax in seven natural thermal pools with a continuous flow of mineral-rich waters, maintaining soothing temperatures between 36°C and 38°C (97°F–100°F). Rejuvenate your senses with a volcanic mud bath, famous for its restorative and skin-nourishing properties. We conclude the day with a traditional Costa Rican lunch overlooking the serene forest—a perfect finale to an unforgettable experience that blends nature, culture, and relaxation in the heart of the Orosi Valley.
