Located in the heart of the Central Valley, the capital of Costa Rica enjoys a dramatic setting, ringed by mountain peaks. With many landscaped parks and leafy barrios, San Jose is a surprisingly green city punctuated by colonial-era wooden houses and elegant buildings. As the country's most cosmopolitan city, San Jose provides a wide variety of eating options, music venues and vibrant bars. It's the country's most important transport hub and whether you're merely passing through or planning on staying longer, our day tours and activities are a great way to make the most of your time here. Check live availability and book online with instant confirmation.

Please note that our San Jose day tours and activities operate independently from our longer multi-destination tours in Costa Rica.
