✶ Valle Estrella · Cabécar Indigenous Reserve

Arcelio & the Estrella river

The Cabécars are one of the most discreet indigenous peoples of Costa Rica. Unlike the Bribri, they have never developed tourism — by choice, by tradition, by will to preserve their world.

Arcelio is one of those who believe that a careful dialogue with the outside world can enrich his community without altering it. With Lisa, they build together a rare indigenous tourism — based on respect, sharing and authenticity.

It is not us who go towards the tourists. It is them who come towards us — and the difference is immense.
