Private Tour to Irazu Volcano, Cartago & Hot Springs:
Irazú Volcano National Park is a National Park in the Central Volcanic Conservation Area of Costa Rica. The Crater Principal lake has an unusual greenish yellow coloring caused by rainfall dissolving the minerals along the crater's walls. It has also been known to change color to rust-red depending on the minerals present.
The volcano's summit has several craters, one of which contains Diego de la Haya, a green crater lake of variable depth. At 11,260 feet (3,432 m), the Irazú Volcano is the highest active volcano in Costa Rica. It is easily visited from San José, with a road leading right up to the summit craters. From the top, it is possible to see both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans on a clear day. However, such clear days are rare, and the volcano's summit is usually cloud-covered.
After the visit to the volcano, you will enjoy the beauty of the Orosi Valley and Town. Orosi Church is an Iconic place. This small town puts travelers in an ideal spot to view some of the country's most historic landmarks, including the Iglesia de San Jose de Orosi, which was built in 1743 and is the oldest church in the country still in use today. The church's whitewashed walls and classic Spanish-colonial architecture are a testament to the long hours and artistic dedication that went into this church's design. Nearby this town, we will continue our journey to Rio Perlas, a beautiful Hotel and Hot Springs complex where you will be able to have a great lunch and enjoy the thermal pool, gardens, and rainforest.
