Sightseeing

Enjoy nature being as amazing as it can be. The Irazú volcano is not active, but is still an awesome sight. TIP: don't just go to see the crater, also go to the highest point. It has a wonderful view!

This volcano is one of the nicest sights in Costa Rica, also because of the La Paz waterfalls nearby and the gardens that you can visit. The crater is one of the biggest and it has a near perfect cone
