As with all our packages, we can modify any portion to accommodate each couple’s specific interests and requirements. We can substitute hotels, forms of transportation, tours, and activities or even use this idea as a base for a completely customized itinerary.
Day 1: Arrival at San Jose International Airport. Clear immigration and customs; meet your driver as you exit the airport.
