Top Trips for Reconnecting With Nature
Get closer to Mother Nature once more on these immersive rural retreats with Culture Trip.
With the high speed, high stress reality of modern life, it’s no surprise that travellers are looking more and more at using their time away to reconnect with nature. Whether it’s the wonderment of spotting rare wildlife and gazing out over a stunning vista, or the soul soothing pleasure of closing yourself off from the world and slowing everything down on a beach, in a jungle or high up on a mountain, these Culture Trips will get you back in tune with Mother Earth in no time.
The Real Costa Rica
To connect with a place as biodiverse as Costa Rica, you’ll have to witness the wild during the day and night. This extensive eight-day trip will keep you engaged with moonlit sloth viewing in Monteverde and whitewater rafting through La Fortuna. When you’re not drinking in the country’s coffee culture, take your head out of the cloud forest and down to the shoreline with surf lessons and mountain biking in Tamarindo.
