Wildlife Holidays in Central America

Wildlife tours in Central America

Central America adventure wildlife holidays are filled with unique experiences where you’ll get up close and personal to fantastic creatures and see them interacting in their natural habitats. Imagine a world where lizards walk on water and frogs have strawberry-red eyes, where spiders spin webs of golden silk, and rainbow-coloured flocks of birds soar through the sky. It might sound like a scene from Avatar, but in Central America, this is real life.

In Costa Rica alone, the gloriously diverse ecosystem is home to some 5% of the world’s animal and plant species. Discover the full spectrum on wildlife holidays in Central America. You might find yourself in the mist-shrouded canopies of rainforests, surrounded by the raucous sound of Howler monkeys, or watching green turtle hatchlings scramble across the sand towards the Caribbean Sea during nesting season.

Costa Rica’s wildlife extends beyond just rainforests, as it’s also home to majestic mountains and the Caribbean and Pacific coastlines. From the renowned Arenal Volcano to Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, you can immerse yourself in the remarkable beauty of the mountains. Nature lovers can embark on thrilling hikes, zip line through the canopies or soak in therapeutic hot springs, all while being surrounded by the diverse wildlife that calls these landscapes home.

Along the coastline, explore Manuel Antonio Beach, spotting dolphins, turtles and even whales during certain seasons. Tortuguero, often referred to as Costa Rica’s “little Amazon,” is a must-visit destination on wildlife holidays in Central America. This remote region is home to an extensive network of canals and lagoons, which serve as the breeding grounds for numerous marine turtles, including the endangered green turtle.

The amount of wildlife we saw on our Exodus Travels safari in Kenya & Tanzania blew my mind! Elephants, zebras, giraffes, wildebeest, hyenas, many kinds of antelope, baboons, monkeys, hippos, rhinos, alligators, cheetahs, and of course…….. lions. This trip was a dream one true, 50 years in the making. Thanks Raymond/”Dolly” for being the perfect person to guide us on this splendid adventure!

I did this add-on as a pre tour, from Lima, before my Essential Peru tour. I was the only person from Exodus on this add-on but was never alone as the groups from other companies allowed me to join them. That gave me the best of both worlds, I was not only guided by guides from these other groups but had the extra priviledge of my own Exodus guide pointing out anything they missed!

An amazing all round trip – Sri Lanka is one of my favourite countries I have been to so far ! Sri Lanka truly offers everything from beaches ,mountains,safaris and forests. The people are so friendly and the food is incredible .

This trip enables you to see the whole of Sri Lanka at a fair pace – you able to see all the main attractions and the lesser known spots as well . There is a perfect amount of free time allowing you time to relax by the pool or enjoy the hotel . The hotels were of high standard and the service at all of them was exceptional.

I felt like we had sufficient time in every place and everything ran so smoothly.We were able to see and learn so much in the two weeks. This holiday was incredibly well planned and run . Thank you Exodus !
