Costa Rica, Panama & Colombia Expeditions

With jaguars and toucans in the cool mist of cloud forests, blue morpho butterflies and sloths in tropical rainforests, and a kaleidoscope of marine life swirling around coral reefs, Costa Rica’s varied habitats burst with biodiversity. The wildest of these wild places are also the least accessible—unless you approach by expedition ship. 

Our carefully curated itineraries allow you to experience different facets of this biodiverse region, from remote shores that give way to seas teeming with marine creatures, to inland gems like a mist-shrouded cloud forest.

Corcovado National Park's remote location has enabled this nature preserve to maintain its reputation as one of the most interesting and abundant ecological destinations around.

Lindblad art director and staff photographer David Vargas recently visited Guanacaste, Costa Rica, where he photographed some of the elements guests will encounter on our brand-new itinerary.
