About Horizontes Nature Tours:
Horizontes Nature Tours is Costa Rica's leading ecotourism and sustainable operator, known internationally for personalized customer service and innovation in the field of nature-based travel. We have been certified with the highest sustainability qualification in the county: Five Leaves.
Each program has the goal of being a perfect vacation and also an enriching life experience; combining all the elements of fun, safe adventure, learning and personal growth, while promoting a greater understanding of nature and humankind. We try to make it a voyage of personal discovery – of the world around us and the one inside.
Through the careful design of out travel programs, Horizontes aims to create appreciation of Costa Rica's conservation areas and contemporary culture. We are proud partners and local representatives of several prestigious organizations in special interest travel who share their dedication to sustainable tourism practices.
A pioneer in nature travel, Horizontes has helped create an incentive for the protection of Costa Rica's landmark national park system by encouraging small groups of travelers to visit these wild lands. Over the year's Horizontes has instituted a number of initiatives aimed at "greening" its own business and the industry.
All of this of Costa Rica is offered by a wide range of services: Groups, Independent Traveler (FITS), Special Interest Cruise Ships and Meetings-Incentives-Special Events, all of them offered by professionals who strive to work as a highly effective team in a friendly and fun work environment. We love to travel and are delighted in sharing our country with the world.
