Private Rainforest Days in Braulio Carrillo
A private day in the Braulio Carrillo rainforest built around real trail time and a proper lunch, not a transfer day with a five-minute photo stop.
Days we already have ready
Each one comes with a vehicle and a host just for your group. The price you see is the total for the group, not per person.
Poás Highlands Private Days
Direct access to Poás Volcano and the highlands, with enough flexibility built in to adjust to what the mountain is actually doing that day.
Private Days in Irazú and Cartago
Irazú's summit as the anchor of a full highlands day through Cartago and the Orosi Valley.
Arenal Arrival Day
A one-way private day from the GAM to your La Fortuna hotel, built around a real Arenal experience instead of hours of transfer.
Wild Costa Rica in Carara and Tárcoles
Specialist-led forest time in Carara paired with ethical river wildlife viewing on the Tárcoles, with a clear choice between heading back to the GAM or arriving straight at your Pacific hotel.
Your Central Pacific Day
A Central Pacific coast day built around whatever your group actually wants from the beach, from a relaxed easy day to a surf-focused one.
What a day with us looks like
1You write to us
Tell us where you're staying, how many of you there are and what you'd like to see. We confirm whether your date works and what gets paid separately.
2We pick you up
We come for you where you're staying, within each day's pickup area, in a vehicle that's only for your group.
3The day moves at your pace
If you like a place, we stay longer. If a stop doesn't interest you, we skip it. Anything with a fixed time, like a park entry, we tell you about ahead.
4We drop you back
We finish where we started. No taxi to find, no return bus to wait for.
By Gerardo, not a call center
Way & Welcome grew out of years of personally driving, guiding, and exploring Costa Rica with travelers, many of whom left feeling like they'd made a local friend, not booked a service.
