Join Four Elements for an unforgettable photography adventure through one of the most biodiverse countries on Earth. From the wild Caribbean coast and lush rainforests to volcanic landscapes and tropical waterways, Costa Rica offers an incredible variety of subjects and photographic opportunities.
Traveling during June’s green season means fewer crowds, vibrant vegetation, active wildlife, and constantly changing skies and light. It’s an exciting time to explore Costa Rica with a camera, providing countless opportunities to photograph everything from dramatic landscapes and rainforest scenes to colorful birds and other exotic wildlife.
Our adventures will take us well beyond the typical tourist experience. We’ll explore the jungle canals by private boat, venture into the rainforest on a guided night walk, and photograph Costa Rica’s incredible birdlife at an open-air bird sanctuary. We’ll also visit the base of a live volcano and navigate hanging bridges through the rainforest. Along the way, expert local guides and naturalists will help us discover and photograph the remarkable wildlife, landscapes, and ecosystems that make Costa Rica so special.
This all-inclusive photography adventure includes transportation from the moment you arrive at San José International Airport until your departure, comfortable lodging, park and activity passes, expert local guides and naturalists, and most meals. And, of course, you’ll have the friendly guidance & photography instruction of your Four Elements instructors throughout the adventure.
