Shore Excursions from Port of Limon (Caribbean)

Cruise Ship

Costa Rica is a great cruise destination, there is such a variety of on-shore activities, like ziplining through the rainforest, snorkeling on a coral reef, riding through the canals of wildlife rich Tortuguero, visiting a sloth sanctuary, learning how chocolate is made, and much more. The Costa Rican Caribbean food is delicious, so make sure you have time to stop by a local restaurant!

Red Frog Adventures offers a variety of private shore excursions. Instead of spending your one precious day in Costa Rica with huge crowds and lots of strangers, let us take you where you would like to go, show you this beautiful country, and help you make the most of your time (while getting you back to the ship before it sails!). We are fully bilingual and welcome you to stop where you would like, take pictures, try some local fruit, see the best sights (like the white faced monkeys!), and find some nice souvenirs at good prices.
