Fantastic tour with expert guides - A fantastic tour with expert guides. Marcus and Eric took time to point out wildlife and tell us funky facts about them. We absolutely loved the waterfall - truly incredible to dive off a rock into a lagoon. Hiking to the volcano view point was also magic. And the lunch was delicious!

Fun even in the rain ✨✨ - The guides were awesome- Diago, Franklin, Catalina & Cha Cha showed us a wonderful day. We loved the waterfall even in the rain and cold water. Couldn’t see Arenal but we were lucky enough to see it that night before leaving town. 😀😀

A wonderful, event filled experience - The waterfall was beautiful, the indigenous village was interesting and informative, the volcano from the lava fields was amazing, the wildlife was cooperative, and the guides were so friendly and patient. The guides did warn us that the hike down to the waterfall is easy, but coming back up could be challenging. It is not a hike for someone with bad knees or for someone who doesn't get a lot of exercise, and our party had both so it took longer than expected but the guides were super friendly and encouraging about it. Oh, and the hot springs are an amazing way to cap off a pretty long day. An excellent deal all around!

Awsome Rainy Volcano Tour - We had a great time on our tour DIego, Catalina, Cha Cha, and an older gentlemen I think his name was Santiogo made it a fun and memorable tour even though it rained 90% of the time. They kept us safe and made it fun. I recomend this tour with them. October is the rainy season so no volcano sighting.

Adventures in the Rainforest - One of the best experiences of my life! Diego and Frank led us on an epic expedition through the rainforest to the most amazing waterfall, we swam in the water and all grabbed pictures. Then we had a great lunch, and it was back out to hike up a volcano! After that we visited a village of the indigenous culture. From there we grabbed coffee and went to a great hot springs. Can’t recommend the tour enough!

Eric and Axel were amazing guides!! - This was an amazing experience! We began with viewing a butterfly garden before hiking to the La Fortuna waterfall. Once there, we were able to swim with fish and around the base of the waterfall. We took pictures and stayed a while before heading back to our meeting point and having a delicious pineapple snack. From there, we visited a Maleku (native peoples of Costa Rica) house, were given a fermented apple drink and learned about Maleku history. We heard from both a Maleku elder and our other tour guide Axel who translated what the elder was saying to English so we could understand as well. Axel made us feel very welcome and was very hospitable. From there, we took the tour bus to get closer to the Arenal volcano and began our hike. Eric was very knowledgeable about the different species we saw throughout our hike and we were even lucky enough to see spider monkeys swinging from the trees above! As we made our way closer to the viewing point, Eric continued to tell us about the history of the area and reasoning behind different land formations. After we viewed the volcano and made our way back to the tour bus, we ventured to a hot springs resort where we were able to enjoy pools of many different temperatures and even a waterslide into a hot pool. Both Eric and Axel stayed and watched the tour group's belongings but also made us feel like we were amongst friends as they told and listened to jokes, made conversation and were overall great people. This tour was unforgettable but the tour guides are what really made this experience shine for us. Thank you Eric and Axel! If you do this tour and can get Eric or Axel, we think you'll have an unforgettable time as well!

amazing tour experience! - This tour was excellent and far beyond our expectations. Our tour guide, Erik, took time to point out wildlife, provide a history of the volcano, and ensure that everyone had a great time. This truly took the full day, and for the price that we paid, it was definitely worth it. We would highly recommend this!

Wonderful daytrip - An absolutely wonderful excursion. Our two guides Errol and Diego were fantastic, knowledgeable and helpful in every way. Tough hike down to the La Fortuna waterfall, 462 steps down and just as many up again though the reward came when we arrived at the waterfall and were able to take a dip. The lunch was good. The hike to the volcano felt easy after the trip to the waterfall and the view was breathtaking. Even though it rained all the time, everyone was happy and had a good time. We ended the day at the hot springs which felt good for tired legs. Can really recommend this tour.
