Guayabo National Monument — Costa Rica’s Ancient City

1 Day

Turrialba — Cartago highlands. Ask us to pair this with Pacuare rafting, coffee & cheese and more from a Turrialba base.

Walk the stone causeways, aqueducts and mounds of Guayabo, the only excavated pre-Columbian city in Costa Rica (inhabited ~1000 BC–1400 AD) — a National Monument set in premontane rainforest full of birds. Costa Rica’s most important archaeological site, with a naturalist-historian guide. (Reopened late Aug 2026; access is weather-dependent.)
