TOUR DESCRIPTION:
Costa Rica Motorcycle Tour — Two Oceans, One Motorcycle, Endless Adventure
Trade rain clouds for jungle trails and warm waves. This Costa Rica motorcycle tour links the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea with a spine of mountains, misty forests, rivers, and volcano views in between. Expect a lively mix of asphalt and gravel, fun, fast sections, and daily surprises—plus off-bike thrills like whitewater rafting, jungle waterfalls, ziplines, horseback rides, and beach time. Evenings end in small boutique hotels: charming, nature-wrapped, and perfect for kicking back.
Highlights
- Mixed terrain: winding asphalt + gravel through forests, valleys, river crossings
- Volcano & mountain vistas with constantly changing scenery
- Off-bike adventures: whitewater rafting, ziplines, hidden waterfalls, horseback riding, warm-water swims
- Boutique stays: intimate hotels surrounded by nature, ideal for unwinding
Off the beaten path: deep into Costa Rica’s interior for an authentic feel
Costa Rica was built for two wheels: Pacific on one side, Caribbean on the other, and a mountain chain down the middle. Our route weaves asphalt and gravel through misty forests, over rivers, past volcanic ridges, and into vibrant green valleys. The riding is playful and varied—fast sweepers one hour, a scenic gravel climb the next—so the day never feels the same twice.
But this journey goes beyond the throttle. Between stages we’ll raft whitewater, swim beneath jungle waterfalls, glide above the canopy on ziplines, ride horses through hillside trails, and jump into warm ocean waves. Each coast has its own rhythm: wild, dramatic Pacific shorelines and the colorful, easygoing Caribbean. Nights are spent in boutique hotels—small, character-rich places that keep you close to nature and far from the crowds.
If you’re craving sunshine while home is stuck in drizzle, this is your perfect escape: sun, jungle, ocean, adventure—all in one fast-flowing itinerary.
