You will get the opportunity to discover secluded waterfalls, enjoy local beaches, participate in an authentic Costa Rican cooking class, hike to breathtaking viewpoints, and learn about Costa Rica’s remarkable wildlife. This trip is a perfect mixture of community bonding, cultural immersion, and slow paced adventures. It is ideal for travelers who want to experience Costa Rica at a gentler pace, connect with nature and local life, and explore beyond the traditional tourist routes.

This trip is uniquely designed to accommodate neurodivergent travelers who have low to moderate support needs. The itinerary has been carefully crafted to avoid overcrowded areas and activities that commonly cause sensory discomfort. In the downloadable trip itinerary you will find a travel accommodation guide that notes what types of sensory experiences you should expect with each activity and a detailed itinerary to help neurodivergent people properly pack and prepare for their adventure. In addition to that, the farm is equipped to support neurodivergent travelers. There, the bedrooms offer a quiet and low stimulation experience, there are crafts in the common room for anyone who chooses to sit out on an activity, and there is also a sensory room for people who need to take time away for themselves to recharge and regulate.
