Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica: Horseback Riding to the Tocori Waterfall with Lunch

Perfect for nature lovers, this adventure takes you into the breathtaking countryside and forests of Tocori. After breakfast at the hotel, meet your guide in the lobby and get ready to explore Costa Rica’s exotic plants, rare wildlife, and rich history and culture as you ride through the tropical jungle and the private ecological reserve at Tocori, just a short ride from Manuel Antonio.

You’ll be riding well-trained Costa Rican horses, known for their steadiness, responsiveness, and adaptability to the tropical climate. Your experienced equestrian guide will provide all the necessary instructions and equipment, ensuring you feel comfortable and safe from start to finish. As you take in the lush scenery, complete with streams and diverse flora and fauna, listen to the sounds of wildlife surrounding you. Your horse will guide you to one of the highlights of the tour: the untamed wilderness of the stunning Tocori Waterfall. Historically, the waterfalls and the surrounding rainforest have been the territory of various indigenous populations, whose descendants still live in the region. The falls consist of several tiers, each creating its own natural pool, perfect for a refreshing swim in the pristine waters after a hike through the jungle environment. Enjoy the snacks and drinking water provided in this secluded area, sheltered by trees.

When you’re ready for lunch, you’ll ride back to the ranch for a typical home-cooked Costa Rican meal, all while surrounded by the beauty of nature. As you savor the delicious meal and soak in the stunning natural surroundings, you’ll feel a deep connection to the vibrant landscape and the unforgettable experiences of your day.
