Exclusive Costa Rica Picnic Experiences from Costa Rican Trails

Costa Rican Trails has developed a collection of named picnic experiences

Set among Costa Rica’s waterfalls, beaches, rivers, farms, and volcano views, each picnic experience is designed with a distinct setting, menu, and atmosphere.

Whispers of the Waterfall

Whispers of the Waterfall takes guests into private farms, scenic trails, and tropical dry forests to reach one of Costa Rica’s hidden waterfalls. The picnic is designed around the sound of the water, the surrounding forest, and a styled setup close to the falls.

Flavors by the Shore

Flavors by the Shore moves the table to the coast, where pristine beaches, warm ocean breezes, and an exclusive setup shape the experience. The picnic is designed around the feeling of being by the sea, with the Pacific setting the pace for the meal.

A Picnic by Celeste Waters

A Picnic by Celeste Waters is set along the turquoise Río Celeste, surrounded by lush landscapes and a thoughtfully curated setup. Guests can swim, explore the river, and spend time by the water as the meal unfolds.

Luxury Among Volcanoes

Luxury Among Volcanoes brings guests into a transparent bubble tent facing Arenal, with floor seating, candlelight, and the volcano framing the meal. Volcanic landscapes and lush surroundings give the experience a quiet, celebratory feel in nature.

Tico Picnic

Tico Picnic is set among tropical gardens, fresh ingredients, and Costa Rican food traditions passed down through generations. The experience centers on a shared table, with local flavors that connect the meal to the farm and the surrounding landscape.
