Big news for Costa Rica travel!
Starting October 2026, British Airways will fly year-round, non-stop between London Heathrow and San José — no longer just a seasonal route! 🎉
✈️ Oct 2026–Mar 2027: 5 flights/week
✈️ Apr–Sep 2027: 3 flights/week
✈️ Boeing 787-800, with connections to 130+ destinations worldwide
That means easier, more reliable access from the UK and Ireland straight into paradise — our beaches, volcanoes, rainforests and all the pura vida magic that makes this country so special.
We can't wait to welcome even more travelers from our lovely friends in the UK & Ireland to experience Costa Rica the way it's meant to be seen — private, personal, and tailor-made. 💚
Since launching Pura Tours & Transport in February, we've personally looked after 25+ travelers, and we can't wait to welcome many more from our lovely friends in the UK and Ireland.
Here's what one of our recent guests from the UK had to say:
"Pura Tours organised our trip of a lifetime for me and my daughter. We were transported from San José to La Fortuna, Monteverde, Uvita, our turtle conservation program and down to Corcovado! Stephi curated a wonderful array of activities for us and it all ran very smoothly! Wilson is a very informative guide too! Thank you both for making it so wonderful!!
Planning a trip to Costa Rica? We'd love to help you make it unforgettable.
