Costa Rica's main International airport is Juan Santamaria Airport (SJO) in San José, Costa Rica. Another airport you can fly to is Daniel Oduber Quirós International Airport (LIR), also known as Liberia International Airport, located in Liberia, in the Guanacaste province of Costa Rica. From both airports, you can catch a domestic flight to Cobano Airport using Fly SANSA or Green Airways. The average flight time is 30 minutes and the flight offers beautiful panoramic views. From Cobano we can organise a private taxi to meet you and bring you straight to the doors of Calamocha. The fare costs approximately $50 and requires cash payment. You can also fly into Tambor Airport which is 45 mins to 1 hour away and the taxi cost is approx $60 to Calamocha. Alternatively there is a company called Tropical Tours which operates a daily coach service to Santa Teresa which can be booked online and will pick you up from San Jose and Liberia airports. The trip is approximately six hours and costs around $60. From Santa Teresa, we can organise a private taxi to meet you and bring you right to the doors of Calamocha. The fare costs around $30 and once again requires cash payment.

Absolutely. We have had many personal experiences of travelling solo as a female around this beautiful country on all forms of transport. We have always felt safe and everyone is very friendly.

Hola! No, it is not necessary to speak Spanish. However, phrases such as hola, gracias, buenos días and por favor will take you a long way with the locals and bring you a smile. If you do speak a little Spanish, go for it!

Costa Rican currency is Colones. US Dollars are accepted in most places. You will receive your change in Colones. It is handy to have some cash when, or example, paying for taxis, buying things from local craft makers.. There are ATMs in Santa Teresa and you can pay by card in most places.

To make the most of your trip, we suggest a minimum of 10 days. We are happy to help you plan before and after the retreat. Most European flights arrive in the evening and you will need to spend a night in San Jose. We can you refer you to an excellent hotel close to San Jose airport with pickup the following morning.

Costa Rica's weather is consistently warm all year round with average temperatures throughout the country ranging from 75 - 90F (24-32C}. The most stable and dry weather is during the months of November through to April. (This is considered "High Season" or summer). There is a rainy season with the rainiest months being September and October. We do not offer Retreats during these months.

Sunscreen. The sun on the equator is hot. Mosquito repellent. We are in the jungle, after all :) We recommend sneakers / closed toe shoes for hiking and travelling. Yoga pants and sports wear. Bathing suits and flip flops. In general, Costa Rica doesn't have a strict dress code so comfortable and casual quick-drying clothes are best for pretty much the entire country.

In Costa Rica the standard voltage is 120V (frequency is 60Hz) and is compatible with chargers, and appliances from the US and Canada. Visitors from Europe (and most other countries) will require a power plug adapter or voltage converter. Most of Costa Rica uses GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) networks; and so making & receiving calls should be no problem except in the most remote areas of the country. And it is worth noting that for internet calling and texting - Whatspp is the most popular phone app in Costa Rica; and local studies have shown that approximately 97% of the population have it installed on their phones.
