OSA WILD

A brief history of it’s origins
AN ADVENTURE OF CONSERVATION AND BIOLOGY
Osa Wild Travel is a local Costa Rican company that promotes ecotourism. It was created with the heart of a tropical biologist eager to protect the rainforest and restore its ecosystems. Initially frustrated by the immoderate amount of land sold to foreigners, this young entrepreneur focused on finding alternatives for the wellbeing of local people through tourism.
INSPIRED BY NATURE, FOR THE PEOPLE
This adventure far from being an economically driven initiative has always been oriented by social and environmental welfare. Osa Wild has focused on finding solutions to conserve and protect one of the most biodiverse places on earth. Ifi has inspired local people to preserve their land, and keeps working on the endless task of helping nature and people evolve together in a responsible way.
Connecting humans with
nature and travelers with the community.

Respect For Nature
The clear understanding of nature and its ecosystems is needed in our community. People can't protect and respect what they don't know.

Sharing Knowledge
Due to the necessity of conserving and protecting our unique biodiversity, education is a fundamental part, not only in our tours but also in our community program in schools and colleges around the Osa Peninsula.

Meeting People
We consider that there is no better fortune when travelling than meeting people. Rural communities are full of wisdom, humbleness and beauty.

Safety
We highly value the importance of your life and the one of your beloved. It is mandatory to communicate any special health conditions, since hiking to Corcovado is not easy. We assure safety in our operations, but take into account that traveling with insurance is obligatory.
