You'll start this great half day shore excursion by meeting your local excursion guide just outside your Puerto Limon cruise ship terminal. You'll hop onboard a comfortable, and air-conditioned transportation for a scenic 20-minute ride to the Tortuguero Canal. The covered boat seats up to 26 passengers comfortably. Your sightseeing excursion guide will be with you the entire time giving you lots of good and interesting bits of information.

You'll take a leisurely ride down the canal surrounded by tropical beauty. Your friendly guide will share information about the Costa Rican environment andTortuguero. You'll have a full hour to keep an eye out for the toucans, sloths, monkeys, iguanas, land turtles and more. Be sure to bring your camera, you'll not want to miss capturing these moments. The rainforest is lovely and so very tranquil, it is hard not to relax.

Once your boat ride comes to an end, you'll get back onboard your transportation for a 10-minute ride to Playa Bonita, or "beautiful beach". You will soon see why this beach is a favorite of the locals or Ticos. If the weather is good for taking a dip, go ahead. If not, and your guide will be able to tell, you can go shelling, or maybe purchase a bite to eat at the restaurants that dot the beach side. No rush, you'll have an hour to enjoy the gorgeous scenery, take a stroll, or just relax in a chair.

When it's time to leave, the transportation will head to a lookout point where you can spend 10 minutes taking in the fabulous view or take some pictures for later. Then enjoy sights of Puerto Limon on your way to the next stop just 10 minutes away.

You will visit a fruit stand, where local farmers exhibit the best of their produce. Enjoy a free sample of the seasonal fruit that is fresh and delicious. You will have 15-minutes to taste and browse.

Heading back into town, you will have the time to take a quick stop (about 15 minutes) at a local supermarket where you can purchase some of the coffee that has made this country famous.

At this point, it's time to head back to your Puerto Limon cruise ship pier. Your guide and driver will drop you off at the entrance of the cruise terminal and make sure to have you back in plenty of time, so no worries, just relax and enjoy your day!
