We love these hotels and they are perfectly situated nearby the trails to make our transitions to our adventures easy and quick. Amenities will vary from hotel to hotel. You’ll want to bring luggage that is easy to pack and carry around. A rugged duffel bag is highly recommended (with or without wheels).

What should I wear for riding/hiking in Costa Rica?
In general, you can expect hot sunny days in Costa Rica. Typical year round temperatures range from 80-90F (26-32C) during the day and only dropping a few degrees in the evenings. You will need very light, quick drying athletic clothes for each day. Refer to the suggested packing list for detailed information on what to bring. You will also be able to leave items in our van each day so you can have back up supplies if needed throughout the day.
Do I need a hydration pack for this trip?
Yes, it is very hot and humid in Costa Rica. We recommend all participants should be prepared to carry 1-2L of water on them each day.
Will there be quality snacks available?
Our crew will have some snacks available, however, it is up to each participant to provide their own personal snacks and electrolyte replacement tabs and/or chews for our adventures. There are stores in Costa Rica where these can be purchased, however, it is recommended that you bring a supply of your favorite items from home as the selection in Costa Rica can be limited.
Are their gluten free, dairy free, or vegan food options available?
All of our trips can cater to most dietary needs, however, make sure you tell us in advance so our team can be properly prepared. After you book your spot, we will ask you to complete your profile to notify us of any dietary needs or allergies.
Once you’re in Costa Rica, there are a variety of food options available at all restaurants to cater to most diets. The typical plate in Costa Rica is called a Casado and is a plate with rice, beans, salad and a protein (beef, chicken, fish, or fresh cheese for vegetarians). Whole foods, fresh meats, fruits and vegetables are easy to come by everywhere you go. When eating at restaurants, our group will always choose venues that are happy to cater to a variety of dietary needs.
I don't mountain bike, can I still do this trip?
Absolutely! Each day where we offer a mountain bike ride, we will also offer a hiking option. This trip is set up to be enjoyed by all!
Are there bike rentals available? Or do I need to bring my bike?
If you plan to mountain bike with us, then you have the choice between bringing your own bike or renting from us. If you choose to rent in country, then you can rent a bike for the full week to ride each day it is offered, or you can rent for half of the trip, if you only wish to ride 1 or 2 times.
*Read more about traveling with your bike at the Information Hub.
I’ve never travelled with my bike. Will there be someone available to help me assemble my bike?
Absolutely! Our guides will be there to help you build your bike at the start of the trip and pack it up at the end. We will have tools available and we’re very experienced in assembling and packing bikes. We’ll gladly give you tips and help you out during the entire process.
What do I need to know about trip insurance?
Note that trip insurance is required for all participants on any Ride the Earth tour. You must provide proof of policy prior to departure. We recommend World Nomads to provide you with affordable trip insurance. They offer excellent coverage for adventure activities.
Is gratuity for guides and activities included?
Although tipping is completely up to your discretion, it is customary to provide gratuity for guides and drivers. A typical gratuity for your expert guides is 5-10% of your trip cost per person and 2-5% for drivers. This may be given to the lead guide on your trip or to each person individually.
